For that reason his heart was audibly knocking against his ribs. Again the fantastic incalculableness of life struck him as so remarkable. An occasion, a condition such as this he had scarcely hoped to reach in weeks, or even months, certainly not in the wild welter of New York.
Granice, with a throbbing heart, watched Denver refill his pipe. The editor, at any rate, did not sneer and flout him.
