Wreaths of brown smoke blew gustily in the sunlight; a train boomed across the latticed bridge; and the hoot of a siren tore all other sounds in shreds. Creakily our ship was warped in by straining cables, and I said to myself, "The overture's finished. The play is going to begin."
Jack Loughead's dark face had a grave look on it as he glanced down at her. "I hope so," he said simply. "It's perfectly dreadful," cried Alexia Rhys, wrinkling her brows, "to try to get up anything with Polly away. If we only had Joel to help us, that would be something" "Well, it's got to be done," said Clem Forsythe, in a matter-of-fact way. "Of course it has," cried Alexia gustily.
"Here," said a dismal voice from the depths of a corner easy chair. They all rushed at her. "I've had an awful time with her," sobbed Alexia, her face buried in her handkerchief, "and I suppose it really will kill me, girls." "Nonsense!" cried one or two. "Well, what did she say about making Polly listen to reason?" "Oh, dreadful dreadful!" groaned Alexia gustily. "You can't think!"
"How's she coming?" The voice came over the intercom to the Power Section, and Mike the Angel knew that the question was meant for him. "She'll make it, Captain," he said. "She'll make it. I designed this thing for a 500 per cent overload. She'll make it." "Good," said Black Bart, snapping off the intercom. Mike exhaled gustily.
The thunderclaps, treading one on the heels of another and with a strange crackling accompaniment, sounded more like the working of a gigantic electric machine than the usual detonating reverberations. The flickering light was blinding and confusing, and a thin hail smote gustily at my face as I drove down the slope.
Through the two big windows she could see the ships in the harbour with rows of shining portholes: ferries were fussing to and fro like fiery water beetles. From the man-of-war she saw the winking Morse light signalling to the Heads. Trams clanged by in the distance; in a public-house near by men were singing and laughing. In the room Louis was snoring gustily.
"Well, well, Bingle!" exclaimed the president, somewhat gustily as he hastened forward. "How are you? That this should happen to you! It is unbelievable!" He was pumping Mr. Bingle's arm. "I don't see how in the world we are to get along without you. You ought to be ashamed of yourself. Why don't you " "Wha what in the name of heaven am I accused of doing?" blurted out Mr. Bingle abjectly.
Relentlessly he bore his assailant to the ground and raised his knife. The lightning flared brilliantly again. With a great, choking cry of unutterable horror, Carl fell back and flung his knife away. "Oh, God!" he cried, shaking. "Philip!" He flung himself face downward on the ground in an agony of abasement. With a roar of wind and rain the hurricane beat gustily upon the wigwams.
He spoke gustily, in broken incomplete sentences, but with all his heart and strength, of this new faith within him. He spoke of the greatness of self-abnegation, of his belief in an immortal life of Humanity in which we live and move and have our being. His voice rose and fell, and the recording appliances hummed their hurried applause, dim attendants watched him out of the shadow.
"Sit ye there, my lamb, and never mind nobody. Lor'! You be a-shiverin' an' shakin' like a little asp, I declare. Poor child!" sighed she, gustily commiserate, and patting my head with her great plump hand. "Pore little soul never mind, then!" "Madam," said I, somewhat overwhelmed by her solicitude, "I am not so very so extreme youthful as you deem me." "Ain't you, lovey?" "Indeed, no!
