West turned towards the road, leaving Coomber still half-dazed with astonishment. "Bob, Bob," he called at last, "I've got to go to the village. A strange thing has happened here to-day, and I want to get my wits a bit together before I tell your mother. But you needn't do much to the boat till I come back, for it may be we shall have a new one after all."
But he still held it by one of the sleeves, without letting it go, repeating, in a half-dazed manner: "Oh! Why? Just explain ... whose overcoat is it? It is not mine, as it has the Legion of Honor on it." She tried to take it from him, terrified, and hardly able to say: "Listen ... listen ... give it me ... I must not tell you ... it is a secret ... listen to me."
"An' he looked at me kindly fust he seed me; 'twas awnly hunger made un shout not no fear o' me. My heart warmed to un as I told 'e. An' to come this day!" Phoebe had taken the child, and was looking over its body in a half-dazed fashion for the baby marks she knew. Silently she completed the survey, but there was neither caress in her fingers nor softness in her eyes.
A limp figure in an old skin coat lay almost at her feet, and she dropped on her knees beside it in the snow. Hawtrey's face showed an unpleasant greyish-white in the faint silvery light. "Gregory!" she cried hoarsely. The man opened his eyes, and blinked at her in a half-dazed manner. "Fell down," he said. "Think I felt my leg go and my side's stabbing me. Go for somebody."
But these men even lacked the signs of thinking intelligence the animals had. The helmeted man's hand moved across his chest plate, and instantly his followers came into a measure of life. One put his hand to his forehead with an odd, half-dazed gesture. Another half crouched, his lips wrinkling back in a snarl. And the leader, watching him, laughed.
Instantly the car stopped, for Mr. Barrymore, buried as he was, didn't forget to put on the brakes. Then I felt that he was excavating me, and almost before I knew what had swallowed me up I was emerging from green and pink billows of clover, laughing, gasping, half-dazed, but wholly delighted. "You're not drowned?" he asked quickly.
As they followed him into the shop, Freddie was the only one of the four whose condition was anything like normal. All the others were in a half-dazed state. Frankie was afraid that he was not really awake at all. It couldn't be true; it must be a dream. In addition to the hair, the horse was furnished with four wheels.
Tread softly. See, here is the boat. I will get in first. We shall not be heard upon the water. So." And the fellow led me, half-dazed, down to the bank of a broad, dark river which I could just distinguish he led me to an unknown bourne.
She was still half-dazed when he set her down in a chair. She held fast to his arm. "Please stay with me just a moment just a moment!" she besought him incoherently. He stayed, very steady and quiet beside her. "Are you hurt?" he asked her. She fought with herself, but could not answer him. A ridiculous desire to dissolve into tears possessed her.
At times they fell over boulders and into thickets of rotting branches that lay around fallen trees, but, though their senses had almost deserted them, they were certainly going down. The pines grew taller and thicker; withered twigs and needles crackled beneath their feet; though in places they plunged downward amidst a rush of slipping gravel. Still, half-dazed as he was, Weston was puzzled.
