In my dream the round earth hung before me against the background of the night, and red flames shot from every part. I heard cries of anguish men blinded by gases and crazed by suffering. I saw women dressed in black a long procession stretching hideously from mist to mist walking with erect heads, dry-eyed, for grief had starved them of tears.
She went out dry-eyed after kissing her mother, took her seat in the carriage, bowed polite but unsmiling acknowledgments to her friends, and drove off with Major Colquhoun with as little show of emotion, and much the same air as if she had merely been going somewhere on business, and expected to return directly. "Thank goodness, all that is over!" Major Colquhoun exclaimed.
She looked at him, dry-eyed, but with a strained look of sorrow strangely altering her girlish face. "You must be very unhappy," she said. "Not at all," he assured her. "I am one of those fortunate persons who have outlived happiness and unhappiness. I have nothing to do but live and pay off a few little debts."
"Two," she said, dry-eyed, while the glorious dawn shot up to bathe the world in glory, "full pay for you both." El Rey, stamping in his own corral, lifted his beautiful head, scanned the wide reaches that spread away in living green, and tossing up his muzzle, sent out on the silence a ringing call. He cocked his silver ears and listened. No clear-cut human whistle answered him.
Then she remembered Edythe, dry-eyed and pale, and her fears vanished. Pearl had recited once at a Band of Hope meeting a poem of her own choosing this was before the regulations excluding secular subjects became so rigid. Pearl's recitation dealt with a captive knight who languished in a mouldy prison. He begged a temporary respite his prayer was heard a year was given him.
Crow, for the magnanimous way in which you have taken me into your confidence ever since I have known you. It is an honour to have been arrested by you; truthfully it is no disgrace." In the privacy of Mrs. Bonner's sitting-room, Elsie Banks, dry-eyed and bitter, told the story of her life. I cannot tell it as she did, for she was able to bring tears to the eyes of her listeners.
A moment later he had vanished within the woods through which he must pass on his way to Ian Ross and his wife, to whom he desired to convey his final word of thanks. Nita stood silent, dry-eyed gazing after him. He was gone, and she knew she would not see him again for two years. The woodland shadows were lengthening. The delicate green of the trees had lost something of its brightness.
And just because she does not wail and tear her hair and faint she popularly is supposed to be a flinty, cigarette-smoking creature who rampages up and down the land, seeking whom she may rend with her pen and gazing, dry-eyed, upon scenes of horrid bloodshed." "And yet the little domestic tragedy of the Nirlangers can bring tears to your eyes?" "Oh, that was quite different.
Cora gave her a quick embrace, a quick kiss, and, dry-eyed, ran out of the room, down the stairs, and out of the house. She walked briskly down Corliss Street. It was a clear day, bright noon, with an exhilarating tang in the air, and a sky so glorious that people outdoors were continually conscious of the blue overhead, and looked up at it often.
They muttered to him that it was only their play, they hastily whispered excuses, they asked him what was wrong, but seemed scarcely to hope for an answer, nor did he speak, but sat with a frozen stare, all at once dry-eyed, a monument to terror. Nearer and nearer came the click clack clop.
