"Gobble, obble, obble!" said the turkey, behind some bushes, still several rods off. "Yes, that's my turkey!" said the man, ready enough to claim the unseen fowl. "How do you know he is yours?" asked Frank. "I know his gobble. One I had stole gobbled jest like that." And the secessionist's stern features relaxed a little.
I asked if Ellinor O'Donoghoe was at home; but the dog barked, the geese cackled, the turkeys gobbled, and the beggars begged, with one accord, so loudly, that there was no chance of my being heard.
At the approach of the witnesses, the machinery of the throne rumbled the wheels turned, the ox lowed, the lion roared, the wolf howled, the lamb bleated, the leopard growled, the goat cried, the falcon screamed, the peacock gobbled, the cock crowed, the hawk screeched, the sparrow chirped all to terrify the witnesses and keep them from giving false testimony.
The girls, unable to longer restrain their natural curiosity, had thrust their heads from the shelter to see what it all meant; and the men must have seen them, though they were savagely attacking the food that had been placed before them.

But Eagle Creek was a man of resource. When the round-up pulled in and Wooden Shoes reported to him the general state of the cattle, and told of the water-holes newly fenced and of creek bottoms gobbled by men more farseeing than he, Eagle Creek took twenty-four hours to adjust himself to the situation and to meet the crisis before him.
The baroness gobbled up one peach with a rapidity almost inconceivable in a human being, and very noisily, and was midway through the second when the princess spoke. "I want some children to play with," she said.
The woman seemed glad to see me, brought me a cup of water to drink, and after a few minutes' conversation exclaimed: "'Wal, they've gobbled up one of them fellers! "'Which one? I asked. "'I don't know his name. Bob done it.
Before he left her Maxwell asked Anne if he could call. He came promptly two nights later and brought with him a bunch of violets and a box of chocolates. Anne pinned the violets in the front of the gray frock that gave her the look of a cloistered nun, and ate up the chocolates. Amy was shocked. "Anne, you positively gobbled " "I didn't." "Well, you ate a pound at least." Anne protested.
