The visibility wasn't very good, so I propped the extra tank up in the seat and put my headpiece and mask on it, hoping any watchers would think there were two of us. I don't know whether they were fooled or not." "Pretty smart," Steve approved. "Thanks. I ran back out into the river and fished around in the locker under the seat. You had a few old wrenches there, and some rags.
And suddenly with a blow fiercely strong and swiftly keen, Sir Owen cut the fastenings of the strange knight's helm, so that the headpiece came off. With a cry Sir Owen dropped his weapon, for he knew that this was Sir Gawaine, his cousin. 'My Lord Gawaine, he said, 'the robe of honour that covered thee prevented my knowing it was thee with whom I fought.
"Bowed down With a dreadful frown, Because matters of state have gone wrong, Until at last, From his head so vast, His ideas burst forth in a throng." And Eupolis, in his play of Demoi, asking questions about each of the great orators as they come up from the other world one after the other, when at last Pericles ascends, says: "The great headpiece of those below."
"Why, in a place like this, where nobody puts in but gen'lemen of fortune, Silver would fly the Jolly Roger, you don't make no doubt of that. No, that's your friends. There's been blows too, and I reckon your friends has had the best of it; and here they are ashore in the old stockade, as was made years and years ago by Flint.

Morales sat with his back turned, the headpiece clamped over his ears. Frank darted forward and brought the butt of the revolver crashing down on the Mexican's head. Without a sound, without a gurgle or a cry, Morales swayed in the chair, then slumped to one side and slid to the floor. With nervous haste Frank pulled the headpiece from the other and clamped it on his head.
Aylward, with a fishing lass on either arm, was vowing constancy alternately to her on the right and her on the left, while big John towered in the rear with a little chubby maiden enthroned upon his great shoulder, her soft white arm curled round his shining headpiece.
"Well, he said: 'An' if I tell what little I know, it won't bring him back, and it will set them all by the ears. I wish I had more headpiece, said he; 'I am sore perplexed. But least said is soonest mended. Yon is his favourite word; he comes back to't from a mile off." Margaret shook her head. "Ay, we are wading in deep waters, my poor babe and me." It was Saturday night and no Luke.
Of course, there were others beside us ten and the man; but we always had a mat apiece, with a wadded woolen headpiece, all covered with black and red dragons and things; just like the coffin in the corner. At the end of one's third pipe the dragons used to move about and fight. I've watched 'em many and many a night through.
If I travel a little with him I may learn much. And he, too, may learn from me. He has a good headpiece, and I may be able to instil into him more seemly notions of duty and virtue. Besides, what else can I do?" So, spinning his thaler in air, "Done!" he cried. The beggar caught it neatly. "Herr Landlord," said he, "another glass of your excellent whisky!"
It was very like the headpiece used by operators of telephones, and she hastened to adjust it. In a moment it was as though she were in the library. She could hear Locke's earnest laugh and in it Zita could detect an undercurrent of tenderness. Her lips compressed and her eyes hardened as she listened. Locke was speaking about a letter and it seemed to be something important. Zita was all ears.
