Again the mists close over them, and the only signs of their continued exertions are the halloos of the men and the clamours of the hounds, ascending as it were out of the bowels of the earth.
Morcar stepped down from the mound on which he stood, and the brothers embraced amidst the halloos of the forces. "And welcome, I pray thee," said Morcar, "our kinsman Caradoc, son of Gryffyth the bold." So Morcar reached his hand to Caradoc, stepson to his sister Aldyth, and kissed him on the brow, as was the wont of our fathers.
The men over in the field had a team to help them this afternoon; she could hear their halloos. She had a scanty pattern for the shirts; she had to plan and piece the sleeves. Nanny came home with her embroidery, and sat down with her needlework.

Consequently, we were not surprised, while delayed at the ferry, to hear the owners of the corn venting loud halloos, like the rosy-cheeked farmer boys in England when scaring the crows away from the young wheat. The caravan in the meanwhile had crossed safely bales, baggage, donkeys, and men.
