I don't even know the fellow's name, nor do I understand his enmity toward the show or myself." Phil wriggled in under the tent, now, not fearing discovery, for inside the tent, it was quite dark. Slowly raising himself to his feet, he edged nearer, step by step, to where the man was at work.
As she spoke she looked him hard in the face with her father in her eyes. Liftore could not return the look with equal steadiness. It seemed for the moment to be inquiring too curiously. "I know what you mean," he said. "You don't believe my professions." As he spoke he edged his horse close up to hers.
"And the rain all over her, and the thunder close above her, and the sea in her face, the sea the sea!" She clapped her hands. "Gaspare! Gaspare!" She put her face to the glass. Gaspare, who was standing up in the stern, with his hands holding fast to the rail that edged the cabin roof, bent down till his brown face was on a level with hers, and his big eyes were staring inquiringly into her eyes.
Across the gulch, nearly one hundred and fifty yards from him, the renegade lay crouched. A hunched shoulder was just visible. Thursday edged carefully along the ledge. He felt for holds with his hand and feet, for not once did his gaze lift from that patch of hickory shirt. The eyes of the boy had narrowed to slits of deadly light. He was wary as a hungry wolf and as dangerous.
Pamela listened respectfully, but Grandmamma's tone was not alarming. The little girl slowly edged her way along from Grandpapa's chair to Grandmamma's.

He shook his head.
Come in your room, Joan, shed as much as you like. I expected you this morning. I have only bacon and eggs shall we go out to eat?" "Go out? Heavens, no! And I adore bacon and eggs. Sylvia, I have edged into glory!" "You have, Joan edged in, that's about it." After the meal before the fire they cleared things away, and then they talked far into the night.
She had kept, even from Lindsay, what she meant to do. When she stepped from his brougham, flushed after the indubitable triumph of the evening, with her arms full of real bouquets from Chatterjee's no eight-anna bazar confections edged with silver tinsel it occurred to her that this reticence was not altogether fair to so constant a friend.
We talked, as we waited, of the outside world and Garvin astonished me by his grasp on general affairs. At last Marcus arrived and his coming made a strange picture which dwells still in my mind. The western sky was all ash of rose and the higher clouds were dark masses edged with gold. The hills were gray and frowning ramparts with bristling crests.
She merely postponed it, trusting that the tides of accident would drift them together, as indeed they did, though after a longer delay than she had anticipated. The occasion of their meeting was provided by the visit of a French actress to one of the London theatres. Drake and Conway edged into their stalls just before the curtain rose on a performance of Frou-Frou.
Then the inevitable fidgets came on, and scratching one's legs mitigated slightly, but did not entirely disperse them. My two warders were still deep in clothes; I slipped off my chair and edged cautiously around the room, exploring, examining, recording.
