But Jack was in bed; his eyes were so swollen with the stings of the bees that he could neither read nor otherwise amuse himself; and he preferred his own thoughts to the gabble of Sarah, who attended him.

"I cannot claim to have an order from him, General." "Then make way, or take the consequences!" He began to argue the case, for he was like the rest of the tribe, always ready to fight with words, not acts; but in the midst of his gabble Joan interrupted with the terse order: "Charge!" We came with a rush, and brief work we made of that small job. It was good to see the Bailly's surprise.
And for myself, the thought of all that the Countess of Albany endured at the hands of Charles Edward awakens less pity, though pity mixed with indignation at the fate which humiliated her so deeply, and with shame for that deep humiliation, than that sudden cry with which she stops in the midst of the light-headed gabble about her miseries, and seems to start back ashamed as at the sight of her passion and tear-defiled face in a mirror: "What a cruel thing to expect one's happiness from the death of another!
Petrified with a totally new horror, but with something of the coldness and impassiveness of the transformation, I stood, spoke, and acted a wonder, almost a terror, to myself.

He wasn't the man to take anything for granted, however, and after he had sort of pulled himself together and got his second wind, so to speak, he cast loose a couple more with a message that he had to have a letter on paper from Mrs.
She's queer, that's all and she won't tell who she is, nor where she came from and she seems to have money." Pearl looked at him inquiringly. There must be more than that to the story, she thought. "The women will tell you more about her that's sure. They gabble a lot among themselves about her I don't know we think it best to leave her alone.
When once he begins, there's no possibility of checking or stopping him. On, on he goes. Farewell to the rest; he insists on pouring it all forth to the very last sentence. Gabble, gabble, gabble; chatter, chatter, chatter; pouf, pouf, pouf; boum, boum, boum; he runs ahead eternally in one long discordant sing-song monotone.
The evening was now setting in; the sun was not far from its bourne in the horizon; the air was very cold, the wind was rising, and the waves of the noble Tagus began to be crested with foam. I told the boy that it was scarcely possible for the boat to carry so much sail without upsetting, upon which he laughed, and began to gabble in a most incoherent manner.
"Larn dat gal ter keep a civil tongue in her yaller head if yer want peace an' composion," said Clo. "Dat ar's religion wid a vengeance," cried Vic; "a callin' names is pretty piety, ain't it! I'll jis' see what Elder Brown says ter dat ar de bery next time I sees him." "Oh, yes!" said Clo, contemptuous; "yer allers glad ob a 'casion ter gabble!
For the moment that he realised he had called out my name he tried to edge backward from me into the crowd, he began to gabble Greek, but I caught him by the arm, and I would not let him go. He had done you some great wrong. That I know; that I knew. But I could not remember it then.
