The last point had been further punctuated by an expressive gesture on the speaker's part, pointing to his own throat accompanied by a significant little gurgling sound. The gesture and the gurgle had been convincing. The man surrendered the case in some haste. He did not at all care for the style of conversation indulged in by this tall, unsmiling, green-eyed man.
When, finally, they stepped into the dim, cool wood, melodious with the gurgle and splash of hurrying water and the lilting of unseen birds, nobody remembered the hot, weary way she had come. Miss Sterling, stretched upon a bed of vines and moss, announced that she was in "heaven." Little Mrs. Adlerfeld looked across in answering sympathy.
"You talk enough for a man." "Can't I open my mouth?" demanded the indignant oracle. "You look less foolish when you keep it shut," returned the stout young lady. "We'll show them how to get on," observed the Lady 'Ortensia to her bridegroom, with a smile. Mr. Clapper responded with a gurgle.
In one hand he carried a decanter of brandy, in the other a seltzer siphon. Durkin could hear the gurgle and ripple of the liquid into the glass; a moment later he knew that MacNutt was bending over him. "Here, you, wake up out o' that!" he said, with still another chuckle of ominous glee. He shook the relaxed figure roughly. "Get awake, there!
Slowly and heavily they rose over him as he sank: then came the lengthened and suffocating torture of that drowning death the impotent and convulsive contest with the closing waters the gurgle, the choking, the bursting of the pent breath, the flutter of the heart, its agony, and its stillness. He recovered.

She leaned forward, speaking in a confidential whisper; every now and then she uttered a deep gurgle of laughter. "...mixed bathing...saw them out of my window...sent for a pair of field-glasses to make sure...no doubt of it..." The laughter broke out again. Denis laughed too.
You see, in creeping up on a deer that is feeding on the lily pads in the shallow water near the shore, just around a point perhaps, the water dripping from the paddle when it was raised; or even the gurgle as it came out, would give warning of danger; and about the only thing they'd know about that deer would be its whistle as it leaped into the brush.
A chubby baby will gurgle and coo over a piece of this polished rock, and hold it in a little pink fist; old, white haired men will feebly finger a rough specimen streaked with green and amber. The spell of Nevada.....
He stretched out his hand to touch the marble forehead, there was a snarl and a gurgle, and Henson came to the ground with a hideous crash that carried him staggering beyond the door into the corridor.
She laughed, a happy gurgle of a laugh which made a man want to laugh with her without knowing the cause of her merriment. "Lonesome Pete has brought me news, and Toothy, and even your friend Brayley! Do you know," mischief lurking in the depths of her eyes above the assumed gravity of her face, "I think that the boys are actually beginning to approve of you." "Flattering, I must say!"
