"Gee-up," shouted John in his loud cheery voice, and the horse made a step forward, while the children round cried "Hurrah!" and waved their hands. But suddenly there was a loud piteous cry which made John give the horse a sudden push back and drop his whip, and then, from where they sat, Milly and Tiza heard a sound of crying and screaming, while everybody in the field ran toward the hay-cart.
"You must not say that," said Big Claus; "for only one of them belongs to you." But Little Claus soon forgot what he ought to say, and when any one passed he would call out, "Gee-up, my five horses!" "Now I must beg you not to say that again," said Big Claus; "for if you do, I shall hit your horse on the head, so that he will drop dead on the spot, and there will be an end of him."
No use picking it up, only make a mess on deck, there was no reward "Gee-up! Neddy." The barge went on, turning up the mud in the shallow water, sending ripples washing up to the grassy meadow shores, while the moorhens hid in the flags till it was gone.
Our progress was marked by some noise and confusion, and the constant din made by Jake talking to his team, his loud sonorous "woha!" as they were obliged to halt, and the lively "gee-up gee-up" as they moved on again frighted any game long before we could come up with it. Of course we were compelled to keep by the waggon until we had made the passage of the miry flat.
"It's the only thing I can do with one leg, it's a beastly shame of you!" Dudley, who had nearly got possession of the coveted reins dropped them instantly. "All right then, but go ahead!" And then Roy with a shamed look put the reins in his cousin's hands. "I'll give them up. Granny always says I'm selfish. It was awfully mean to talk of my leg. Now then hurry! Gee-up!"
The poor fellow hasn't a moment's peace of his life, what with laying foundation stones, opening museums, inspecting this and visiting that, he is like a costermonger's donkey, that must gee-up or gee-wo as his master, the people bid. If he smiles at a woman, it is instantly reported that he's in love with her, if he frankly says he considers her pretty, there's no end to the scandal.
I believe Aunt Mary has forgotten all about us there they go! Up the hill without ever once looking at me. I suppose I may follow now. Gee-up, Long John. Don't you ever think of anything but eating?" But if Aunt Mary had forgotten her family she very soon remembered it again, for she and Major Campbell were waiting at the gate when Mollie came up, and they all arrived at the front door together.
"Can we be of any assistance?" "I guess I can make it," I said, scraping the mud off my trousers and boots. "Gee-up there, Liney!" My cows settled slowly into the yoke, and standing, as they did now, on firm ground, they deliberately snaked the wagon, hub-deep as it was, out of the mire, and stopped at the word on the western side of the mud-hole. "Good work, Mr. Vandemark!" he said.
Bevis would not come, saying he hated him. But when the bailiff told him about the hunt there had been, and how the people were everywhere looking for him, Bevis began to laugh, thinking it was rare fun. "Take me 'pick-a-back," said he. So the bailiff stooped and took him. "Gee-up!" said Bevis, punching his broad back and kicking him to go faster.
Jack Frost turned to Marmaduke. "Where would you like to go most?" Marmaduke didn't need to think, he had his answer all ready. "I'd like to visit the Old Man-in-the Moon." "It's a bit of a drive," replied Jack, "but Old Yellow Horns and Prancing Hoof are fast goers. Gee-up! Gee-up!" he shouted at them, touching their flanks with the icicle whip.
