"I'm afraid you're a bit tired, dear; you're getting pale. You had a jolly colour when I met you." She touched her cheeks mechanically with her fingertips. "Had I? That was because I was so excited at the prospect of our lovely evening." "Dear old girl! So it's been a lovely evening?" "Perfect. I wish it was beginning all over again," she answered hollowly, wishing that she meant what she said.
Out of the tilted aisles of the dim wood they came hollowly; they chirped and buzzed from the parched grass; they trilled from the ripples of the creek ford; they floated up in clear Pan's pipe notes from the dimming meadows; the whippoorwills joined in as they pursued midges in the upper air; slow-going cow-bells struck out a homely accompaniment and this was what each one said: "You've found your way back at last, have you?"
He was alone, but his lips moved from time to time, and once he called out in some loud, stifled exclamation which resounded hollowly in the vault-like place. He was there a long time. When he went back into the furnace cellar, he found Nathaniel sitting before the fire. The food and warmth had brought a little color into his pale face, but it was still set in a mask of tragic desolation.
You'll find my will in my desk in my office off the patio. Everything goes to Barbara. Everybody knows that. Haydon knows it Deveny's found it out. You can't get me back it's too far. Plant me here an' tell Barbara." He laughed hollowly. "I reckon that's all." He felt for one of Harlan's hands, found it, and gripped it with all his remaining strength.
But McLean had left a busy office and taken an anxious and uncomfortable excursion, and his voice had no genial ring as he shouted his friend's name down the dark entrance of the tomb shaft. In a moment he heard a voice shouting hollowly back, then a wavering spot of light appeared upon the inclined floor and Ryder's figure emerged like an apparition from the gloom. "I say! That you, Andy?"
This done, pole, iron, and rope like the Three Fates remained inseparable, and Ahab moodily stalked away with the weapon; the sound of his ivory leg, and the sound of the hickory pole, both hollowly ringing along every plank. But ere he entered his cabin, a light, unnatural, half-bantering, yet most piteous sound was heard. Oh!
Emerging from the cloud of dust which was still thick, there staggered toward them two uncanny looking figures in which they had at first some difficulty in recognizing Mr. Bell and Jimsy Bancroft. But when they did what a shout went up! It echoed about the dead hills and rang hollowly in the silent gully.
You say your new doctor thinks it won't do you any good; but he doesn't pretend to say it will do you harm, does he? Well, then give it a trial. It'll take you out of hot theatres and night restaurants, anyhow.... And all the rest of it.... Eh, Balch?" "Go!" said Mr. Balch hollowly.
All the time the absurd smooth, brown-ruddy face gave her an obtrusive 'glad-eye. She stood for minutes, watching it, till a sort of maddened disgust overcame her, and she laughed at herself hollowly. And still it rocked, and gave her the glad-eye from one side, then from the other, from one side, then from the other. Ah, how unhappy she was!
Ten years in research. "All shot to hell," he screamed, "by a stinking, hayburning cow." Peterson patted him gently on the shoulder. "It's all right, Fred. Don't take it so hard. It could be worse." "How?" he asked hollowly. "Have this stuff milked from a kangaroo?"
