Flurry fell twice, and picked herself up sobbing; the horrors of the scene utterly broke down her courage, and she threw her arms round me frantically and prayed me to go back. "The waves are nearly touching us!" she shrieked; and then Dot, infected by her terrors, began to cry loudly too.
"No, no, Dominique; it was a flurry of snow blowing over my shoulder." "But it looked at me with two shining eyes." "That was two stars shining through the door, my son." "How could there be snow flying and stars shining too, father?" "It was just drift-snow on a light wind, but the stars were shining above, Dominique."
My little maid likes brown eyes." Katy's doll was saved. The child, in a fever of suspense, had watched the transaction from behind a pile of dry-goods. Now she turned toward her friend a face bright with gratitude, as she hurried away in response to the imperative call of "Cash." When Julia recovered from her flurry, she explained matters to her associate.
The water about was dyed with blood and the spouting streams from the nostrils were changed from white to red. With a terrible flurry, lashing the waters of the ocean to foam with its broad flukes, the whale died, hundreds of bullets in its head. The airship was saved. "We're sinking! we're sinking!" yelled Bill Jones. He pointed to a stream of water that was trickling up from the cabin floor.
"Look out, then!" There was a sort of warm flurry round her, a rush, a heave, a scramble; she was beyond the stile. The bull and Barbara, a yard or two apart, were just the other side. Lady Casterley raised her handkerchief and fluttered it. The bull looked up; Barbara, all legs and arms, came slipping down beside her.
Flurry was awake and weeping piteously, and Dot was trying to comfort her in a sleepy voice; but she was quiet the moment I told them about the hole. "I must leave you behind, Dot," I said, sorrowfully, "and take Flurry first;" and the brave little fellow said: "All right, Essie," and held back the dog, who was whining to follow.
It was some minutes before the flurry was over, for the delight on both sides was unbounded and the joy of the reunion great. One member of the group lingered in the background. Her face was flushed with delighted expectancy, but with a coyness unknown in her earlier years, she hesitated on the outer edge of the circle. She could not mingle with the rush and waited until the flurry was over.
The beauty of such a conveyance, as compared with the railway travelling of to-day, was that there was no occasion to be in a flurry if you wanted to travel by it. Goldsmith—for such was the proprietor and driver’s name—when he came to a place was in no hurry to leave it.
It was a beautifully clean dive; but in the flurry of the plunge the third officer forgot for an instant the right upward slant of the palms, and went a great way deeper than he had intended.
Horrible phrases were caught by early rising children and carried to older people for definition, sometimes at inopportune moments; while less investigative children would often merely repeat the phrases in some subsequent flurry of agitation, and yet bring about consequences so emphatic as to be recalled with ease in middle life.
