Stole him away, and let her suffer all this while, believing her baby was dead in the river! "You devil!" she muttered, gritting her teeth when that thought formed clearly in her mind.

"My turn now," whispered the boy to himself, "and it is time;" for in his excitement he fancied that he could hear steps approaching. But there was not a sound save the gritting of the rapiers and the captain's hoarse panting breath as he uttered a loud expiration at every thrust.
But not many miles had been covered before he was gritting his teeth and swearing over the knowledge of his scheme's defeat. He saw rolling toward him, swinging their packs from side to side as gently as a mother rocks a cradle, six shaggy, long-eared "desert canaries" with an old desert-colored man behind them who limped along with the aid of a cane. Drummond drove no farther in that direction.
"Were," Gregory corrected her, involuntarily, and she said, "Were, I mean." "I'm a student at college, and here I'm a servant!

As she again turned toward the enemy, the forward mast was shot away. On the enemy no outward damage was apparent, but columns of smoke showed where shots had struck home. Then the Emden took a northerly course, likewise the enemy, and I had to stand there helpless, gritting my teeth and thinking; 'Damn it; the Emden is burning and you aren't aboard!"
Then I heard K-LOOK, K-LOOK, K'LOOK KLOOK-KLOOK-KLOOK-LOOK-LOOK! then a horrible "gritting" of teeth, and finally a piping female voice: Y-e-s?

You hear questions asked; you don't hear the answer.
Then came the gritting of heels on the hardpacked trail and Overland Red stood in the doorway. "Mornin', gents and Saunders," he said, glancing at the figure seated back toward him. "Hello, Red!" exclaimed Joe Kennedy. "Out early, ain't you. Have a drink." "Not out too early. Hello, Lusk!" "How, Red," said the saloon-keeper. "Where's your friends. Ask 'em in," said Kennedy.
All the way down as the cab proceeded, he alternated between shouted behests to the driver to hurry and repetition of his ferocious intention.
