Its windows were blanketed with flour-dust, but it was the most stirring spot in town. Workmen were wheeling barrels of flour into a box-car; a farmer sitting on sacks of wheat in a bobsled argued with the wheat-buyer; machinery within the mill boomed and whined, water gurgled in the ice-freed mill-race. The clatter was a relief to Carol after months of smug houses.
"I got to go away from here ... eh?" "Mercy, no!" laughed Jinnie. "Milly Ann's got a lot of new babies." Bobbie gave a delighted squeal. "Now I'll have something else to love, won't I?" he gurgled. Jinnie hoped so!
The man beat about with his arms, his eyes popped from his head in fright, his throat gurgled, and his face turned livid. Then John Bogdan released his hold, and Mihaly fell to the ground and lay there gasping. Bogdan quickly gathered up his things and strode off, taking long, quick steps, as if afraid of arriving too late for something in the castle.
Eric already knew most of the Lindsay folks by sight; but at the foot of the hill he met two people, a man and a boy, whom he did not know. They were sitting in a shabby, old-fashioned wagon, and were watering their horse at the brook, which gurgled limpidly under the little plank bridge in the hollow. Eric surveyed them with some curiosity.
Presently America and the children returned with the wailing Samuel Saul to the place where Mandy, 'Vada, and Aunt Sophie were standing, loftily ignoring the angry mother and making caustic remarks calculated to add to her discomfort. In the capacious arms of his mother, Samuel Saul ceased his repining and contentedly gurgled again.
"Well, you wicked little rip you Ellen Terry at twenty-two, to think you could play it up like that! Why, never on the stage was there such !" "It's the poetry made me do it. It inspired me," she gurgled. "I felt why, I felt here" she pressed her hand to her heart "all the pangs of unrequited love oh, go away, go back to the house and read that to her!
The season must have been high June, for down in the woods that hid the lights of the Lady Grove windows, I remember the nightingales thrilled and gurgled.... "We got here, George," said my uncle, ending a long pause. "Didn't I say?" "Say! when?" I asked. "In that hole in the To'nem Court Road, eh? It's been a Straight Square Fight, and here we are!" I nodded.
A loud cry of anguish broke the silence of the night which veiled the world, and almost at the same instant the water splashed and gurgled up, and the moonbeams, cold and bright as ever, were mirrored in the thousand drops that flew up from its surface.
"I hope somebody does hear me," gurgled the temperamental Mr. Cassidy, now once more thoroughly beset by his mirth. "I need somebody to help me laugh. By cripes, I need a whole crowd to help me; and I know a way to get them!" He twisted his head round so his voice would ascend the hallway. "Hey, fellers and skoirts," he called; "you that's fixin' to leave!
The noise increased the rushing sound came stronger and stronger the river rose higher, and roared louder; it overleaped the lintel of the door the fire on the floor hissed for a moment, and then expired in smouldering wreaths of white smoke the discoloured torrent gurgled into the chapel, and reached the altar piece; and while the cries from the hillside were highest, and bitterest, and most despairing, it suddenly filled the chapel to the top of the low doorpost; and although the large tapers which had been lit near the altar piece were as yet unextinguished, like meteors sparkling on a troubled sea, all was misery and consternation.
