Every few moments, above this continued roar, would come an appalling crash which sounded just above our heads. The children were screaming with fear, the servants had come into the hall and seemed in a helpless sort of panic. Sophie was very pale and Mary Leighton clung hysterically to her.
I never could. This was not love, in the way that you and I Her open hand struck across his face with the fury of all women scorned. 'I hate you! she cried hysterically. 'We're finished, FOREVER! And I'll HURT you before I'm through. Just wait and see how I hurt you! And she stormed away, her love and pain alike submerged beneath the weight of hard words, and harder justice.
She would have collapsed, and fallen in a heap on the bottom boards, had not Ned, who had come forward from the engine, caught her. Then Tom, again leaning over the side, pulled in the other girl, who was clinging to the life ring. "You're all right," Tom assured her, as she came up, gasping, choking and crying hysterically. "You're all right!" "Is is Minnie saved?" she sobbed. "Yes, Grace!
But he was really very much annoyed. A powerful man always is annoyed when forced to yield. The revelation of a limit to human endurance infuriates him. A woman invariably thinks that the man should be scolded, by way of tonic. "How could you frighten me so?" demanded Iris, hysterically. "You must have felt that you were working too hard. You made me rest. Why didn't you rest yourself?"
"You shot Theo, Jordan," she cried hysterically. "Shut your head," growled Morse, glancing furtively about. "Don't talk so loud.... Now then, listen! There'll be hell to pay for this. But Bates won't peach, and I'm sure I clipped the cobbler's wings. Keep quiet till you hear from me." He sprang again into the machine and was gone before the woman could gather her wits together.
Another quickly followed. The gentleman tugged quizzically at his short gray mustache. "And you," he announced quietly, "are not my niece, Betty Littell!" Esther and Louise stared, round-eyed, while Bobby collapsed dramatically on a convenient couch. "Have we kidnapped anybody?" she asked, a bit hysterically. "Good gracious, Dad, don't tell me I've forcibly run off with a girl?

The snake wriggled to the leg of the table. "Look out!" cried Sal, gathering up her skirts and dancing about on the sofa. Mother squealed hysterically. Joe appeared. He laughed. "You wretch!"
In the gathering twilight they marched noisily through the streets; in their midst, wide-eyed and laughing almost hysterically, marched Zora. Mrs. Vanderpool meantime rode thoughtfully out of town toward Cresswell Oaks. She was returning from witnessing the Mardi Gras festivities at New Orleans and at the urgent invitation of the Cresswells had stopped off.
The other potato, escaping Mrs Swann's vigilance, had run out of the muff and come to the carpet with a dull thud. It rolled half under Mrs Swann's dress. Almost hysterically she put her foot on it, thus making pulp of the second potato. "What?" she inquired innocently. "Didn't you hear anything? I trust it isn't a mouse! We have had them once."
Out of every passage that gave on to the main street poured excited men and women, some hysterically laughing, some swearing, some silent and white as they ran.
