Rather are they modern centaurs, each rider and steed a unit of undivisible will and energy: Danton a furious resistless hippogriff, fire-striking, fire-exhaling, in unity with his white charger; the lean-jawed, sternly set Captain on his lean galloping Arabian, cyclonic, onrushing like some Spectral Horseman; the rest riding like the Valkyries as it were, twixt Heaven and earth their galloping beats scorning the ground as they rush by to the hissing of the cleaved and angry winds.
Five minutes to 10 o'clock had passed. It was three minutes to the attack or less, and the hurricane fire of the French artillery swept cyclonic over the German lines. A thousand yards away, more or less, as the ground gave advantage, the French front-line trenches were filled with men awaiting the hour of 10 two minutes off now to go over the top.
"Stop your nonsense," says the happy Joe, ringing for the waiter to clear away the wreck of his cyclonic fist. "The clothes are O.K." "Where did she come from to take that boat?" demands Woods. "From Hardin's house," says Lee. A light breaks in on Colonel Joe's brain. "And that woman with her?"
If Jim's usual frown looked black, the scowl that was on the Judge's face was cyclonic. "You unspeakable scoundrel!" the Judge exclaimed, as he confronted Jimmy. "That, sir, is precisely the term I should have applied to you!" retorted Jimmy.
But the nights spent on the Indian trail, were not always so delightful, or so conducive to lofty and celestial sentiments. When the cyclonic winds howled around us through the long night hours, blowing with such fury that it requited all of our watchfulness and strength to prevent canoe, blankets, and bundles from being blown into the lake or river, our thoughts were not among the stars.
Perhaps in no other land can nature in her varied aspects of sublimity and grandeur as regards celestial phenomena, be better studied than in the wild north-land. Her cyclonic storms in summer and her blizzard blasts in winter are at times not only terrific in their destructive power, but they are also overwhelmingly grand in their appearance.
Then, with a fervent inward prayer, he started over the edge, and hung in the air, eighty feet from the ground. Down below, the ever-increasing crowd let out a cyclonic, roaring cheer. It was a foolish thing to do, for it might have rattled the young football player. But Prescott paid no attention to the racket, and kept on lowering himself, coolly.
One which Shorty was traveling came westward from the Two Bar Hamlin's ranch; the other, leading almost straight southward, was the Circle L trail; the third, leading southward also, though inclining in a westward direction, ran to the Rabbit Ear, near the Dickman cabin the ranch where Antrim and his men had established themselves. Shorty came on at cyclonic speed.
As such, it must represent something; and as all Beethoven's serious compositions represent some process within himself, some nerve storm or soul storm, and the storm here is clearly one of physical movement, I should much like to know what other storm than the atomic storm could have driven him to this oddest of all those many expressions of cyclonic energy which have given him the same distinction among musicians that Michael Angelo has among draughtsmen.
There's not a solitary subject comes up between us but you adopt in it what I desire to call a stubborn and contumacious attitude towards me. Whoof!" He blew a cyclonic blast down the speaking tube. "Send Parker up here. Parker! Send Parker up here! Parker! Parker! Parker! Pah! Pouff! Paff! Now it's all over the speaking tube!
