"When you come you will hear. And don't let anything keep you away not anything, mind if you take my hint". She left him with her head hung, praying for deliverance, but consenting. A groan broke from the obese heap of grief; down each side of his kefie streamed waves of trembling; on his square-cut beard of ritual flecks of foam. "Isaac, why did you kill Mephibosheth?"
He was standing by the open window, and I at his elbow, both of us thinking of the strange child we had just left, while our eyes took note of the fair night, how the silvery sheen of the moonlight glistened upon the leaves, and sprinkled itself in dappling flecks between the trees on the soft even sward of the campus below.
Without hedges England would not be England. Hedges, thick and high, and full of flowers, birds, and living creatures, of shade and flecks of sunshine dancing up and down the bark of the trees I love their very thorns. You do not know how much there is in the hedges. We have still the woods, with here and there a forest, the beauty of the hills, and the charm of winding brooks.
On the background of gray were strange, leaping red flecks. "Take your horse," he ordered. "No. Walk across the brook. There's a trail. Go up the canon. I'll come presently. Don't run and don't hide. It'll be the worse for you if you do. Hurry!" Joan obeyed. She flashed past the open-jawed Halloway, and, running down to the brook, stepped across from stone to stone.
In about ten minutes you see the Meuse sparkling in the morning light, and on either side the long line of sausage-shaped observation balloons far below you. Red-roofed Verdun springs into view just beyond. There are spots in it where no red shows and you know what has happened there. In the green pasture land bordering the town, round flecks of brown indicate the shell holes. You cross the Meuse.
From the mouth and the hanging dewlaps, flecks of foam dropped now and then to the ground. The big mongrel was sick of mind and of body. He craved only to get out of that abode of men and to find solitude in the forests and hills beyond the village. For this is the considerate way of dogs; and of cats as well.
Her little white dress clung to her slender figure. I saw that now she was in the strange Buddha pose. A few flecks of silver paper, still in her black hair, made it sparkle. But it was Barbara's eyes that held us all spellbound. In her colorless face those wonderful openings of black light seemed to look through and beyond us. For an instant there was no stir.
Thus the slight breeze, scarcely stirring the drowsy flowery the monotonous cadences of the stony brook, and the gliding of feathery flecks of cloud across the blue, create a peace far deeper than absolute stillness, and suggest an infinite life in which activity and repose are one.
I'm not interesting." "Oh yes, you are!" "How am I interesting?" There was a flash in the gray eyes that revealed new flecks of gold. The Irishman hesitated. "Well, I can't explain it," he said, slowly, "unless I tell you that you throw a sort of spell and that sounds absurd.
It was then that Durkin sprang forward. Pobloff saw him advance. He had only time to reverse his hold on the little gun-metal revolver and fire two shots. The first shot went wide, tearing deep into the plastered wall. The second cut through the flap of his assailant's coat-pocket, just over the left hip, scattering little flecks of woollen cloth about. But there was no time for a third shot.
