Before he could make an appreciable move toward it, Verelst, who had turned from him, turned back. "There!" Beyond, through the high-arched entrance, a man was limping. He had the battered face of an old bulldog and the rumpled clothes of a young ruffian. "There's Dunwoodie!"
The bearers of some of the proudest names in all Hungary had gathered in the high-arched rooms to laugh with the venerable pastor and to sample the excellent wines in his cellar. These wines, which the gentlemen themselves would send in as presents to the master of the rectory, would be carefully preserved for their own enjoyment.

I've a frightful temper when I'm roused really fiendish. As a matter of fact, I've" he smiled sheepishly and tapped his slender, high-arched foot with his rattan cane "I've already begun." Blake settled back in his chair without a word.
They are deeply worn away by thought and death; the veins on the temples branched and starting; the skin gathered in sharp folds; the brow high-arched and shaggy; the eye-ball magnificently large; the curve of the lips just veiled by the light mustache at the side; the beard short, double, and sharp-pointed: all noble and quiet; the white sepulchral dust marking like light the stern angles of the cheek and brow.

Her high-arched, threadlike brows were ruffled into a delicious frown. "Milady," said the chauffeur, bowing low, "I have the honor to relate to you that I went to the house of Monsieur Long and found him to be not at home. As I came back I see this gentleman in combat against how you say greatest odds. He is fighting with five ten thirty men gendarmes, aussi.

Facing this portentous tower of metal was a gladiator of the sort known as a retiarius, equipped solely with a long-handled, slender- shafted trident, like a fisherman's eel-spear, and a voluminous, wide- meshed net of thin cord.
