Around the small fire on this cheerless hearth the fortunes of the state were discussed and directed, benefices disposed of, court appointments debated, and reputations made and unmade in tones that suggested the low drone of a group of canons intoning the psalter in an empty cathedral.
"When I saw her weeping," Khazib was intoning, and now Ryder attended, his scanty knowledge of the vernacular straining and overleaping the blanks, "Prince Azib said to himself, 'By Allah, I will never open that fortieth door, never, and in no wise!" "A wise bird," thought Ryder to himself, drawing on his cigarette. "And I bade her farewell," continued the voice slipping into the first person.
Therefore, it is common sense to ask you to release her, and let her be happy with the person she prefers is it not so?" Eustace Medlicott had grown white with anger and astonishment as he listened, and now broke in hotly, forgetful of his intoning voice or anything but his outraged dignity. "When have you had the opportunity to try and undermine the faith of my betrothed, may I ask?
Gone face and name; The deeds, like homeless ghosts, live on alone. Wixon, seated in the boat on Avon and lost in such dusk that he could hardly see his hand upon the idle oar, recited the poem softly to himself, intoning it in the deep voice one saves for poetry. It sounded wonderful to him in the luxury of hearing his own voice upon the water and indulging his own memory.
There was not a sound save the plash of the tide, now beginning to go out, and rolling and rattling the pebbles up and down as it came and went, and once in a while the distant, mournful intoning of the whippoorwill. There were silent lonely ships, sailing slowly to and fro far out to sea, turning their fair wings now into bright light and now into shadow, as they moved over the glassy stillness.
The ball spun round, and the croupier's monotone sounded warningly above the whispering of notes and the clink of coin. "Le jeu est fait." It reminded Ann of the vicar intoning at the little church she had attended in the old Lovell Court days. Only there were no responses!
"Dear me, no. Mr. Dempster sings The Indian's Lament, and The May Queen: that's a cantata and it's in three parts." Jeremy began to hum, and in a moment was intoning in a loud monotonous voice, sweeping a hand up and down: "To my hero, Bangedero, Singing hey for a gay Hash girl." "I don't think that's very nice," she said primly. "What do you mean not very nice?" he demanded, incensed.
The other reticent Talmudists I knew usually read in an undertone, humming their recitatives quietly. He seldom did. Sparing as he was of his voice in conversation, he would use it extravagantly when intoning his Talmud It is with a peculiar sense of duality one reads this ancient work.
He ceased and they stood in silence, both looking on the ground, and for a time nothing was heard above the crackling of the fire but the intoning of Omar glorifying the God his God, and the Faith his faith. Then Babalatchi cocked his head on one side and appeared to listen intently to the hum of voices in the big courtyard.
They who are roaring and hasting like winds, brilliant like the tongues of fires, powerful like mailed soldiers, full of blessings like the prayers of our fathers, who hold together like the spokes of chariot-wheels, who glance forward like victorious heroes, who scatter ghrita like wooing youths, who chant beautifully like singers, intoning a hymn of praise, who are swift like the best of horses, who are bounteous like lords of chariots on a suit, who are hastening on like water with downward floods, who are like the manifold Angiras with their numerous songs.
