A few days before Steve Earle had brought them both through this very corn, into the woods, to the creek. The father had pointed out to the boy the silvery fish darting here and there in a deep-shaded pool. It had made a great impression. Tommy was going to see those fish now. That Frank knew. And he sympathized with the impulse, so far as that was concerned.
I'm in Daly's all day, and hardly have time except evenings." To this Newmark assented. Orde walked with him down the deep-shaded driveway with the clipped privet hedge on one side, to the iron gate that swung open when one drove over a projecting lever. There he said good-bye. A moment later he entered the long dining-room, where Grandpa and Grandma Orde were already seated.
We turned off to the right before coming abreast of this place, and pursued a winding course along a deep-shaded ravine, not rough with broken ground, but graceful with grassy slopes and with here and there a rock. My companion pointed out his house, what is known as a double log building, with a broad passage way between the two sections.
And Charles Svendt lapsed into thoughtfulness. "This is the Seigneurie," said Graeme, as they turned off the road, through the latched gate, into the deep-shaded avenue. The Seigneur came to them in the Long Drawing-Room, where once upon a time the peacocks danced on the Queen's luncheon. "Your time is getting short, Mr. Graeme," he said, with a quiet smile.
It flashed on the white-and-striped shirt and trousers and on the turn-down straw hat with the blue-ribbon band. In the deep-furrowed rows dust puffed up from under the hurrying little sandalled feet. Intent on seeing those darting silvery fish in that deep-shaded pool, Tommy did not once turn to look into the troubled eyes close behind him. Within sight of the woods Frank made his last attempt.
He watched the face with a sort of artistic interest for a few seconds the drooping shadows, the apparently cavernous eyes, the deep-shaded bar of the mustache across the face. In the wavering light cast from below it resembled the face of a vindictive beast. Then the Major whispered, between his puffs: "Frankie?" "Yes." "Oh! you're awake too, are you?" "Yes."
In an instant, almost, for these bursts of snow took place nearly all at once, the air was filled with such a smother of snow that the landscape went out of sight in a great cloud of deep-shaded whiteness. The blizzard was upon us. I should have my work cut out for me in getting to the schoolhouse.
To the south, too, they beheld a deep-shaded amphitheatre of heather and bracken; the course of the Esk, near Penicuik, winding about at the foot of its gorge; the broad, brown expanse of Maw Moss; and, fading into blue indistinctness in the south, the wild heath-clad Peeblesshire hills.
His favourite subjects were remote farms, lonely stagnant water, deep-shaded woods with marshy paths, the sea-coast subjects of a dark melancholy kind. This did not meet with the approbation of her parents, and they turned Machates away. The young maiden took this so much to heart that she pined away and died.
