In a word, it is equipped with everything that goes to make the modern great city. It is the largest city of Australasia, and fills the post with honor and credit. It has one specialty; this must not be jumbled in with those other things. It is the mitred Metropolitan of the Horse-Racing Cult. Its race-ground is the Mecca of Australasia.
I am convinced that indifference and dislike between husband and wife are more frequently occasioned by this great error in education, than by any other cause. The bride is awakened from her delightful dream, in which carpets, vases, sofas, white gloves, and pearl earrings, are oddly jumbled up with her lover's looks and promises.
Luigi acted the caution of one who stepped blindfolded across hot iron plates. Vittoria, without a spark of interest, asked why the Signor Antonio should be following the army. "Why, it's to find you, signorina." Luigi's comical emphasis conjured up in a jumbled picture the devotion, the fury, the zeal, the terror of Antonio-Pericles a mixture of demoniacal energy and ludicrous trepidation.
We went on, through a long, straggling, dirty suburb, thronged with people; having on our left a dreary slope of land, on which the country-houses of the Marseilles merchants, always staring white, are jumbled and heaped without the slightest order; backs, fronts, sides, and gables toward all points of the compass; until, at last, we entered the town.
Pitilessly he pierced their enchanted walls, discovering their pretense, burning away their shadowy glory, baring them for what they were masses of jumbled rock and splintered spires; rain-gutted wraiths of clay, volcanic rock, the tumbled malpais and the tufa of the land. Black shadows shifted. That which had been the high-arched entrance to a mighty fortress was now a shallow hollow in a hill.
When Lassiter reached the level they rested a little while and then faced the great slide of jumbled rocks. Fay led the way, light, supple, tireless, and Shefford never ceased looking at her. At last they surmounted the long slope and, winding along the rim, reached the point where Fay had led out of the cedars.
In a jumbled medley, "Out West, out West, out West," kept floating before my brain. "The Pacific Coast. Home climate, only better. A new country. A young man's country. Wild and free. It's about as far away as ye can get, as ye can get, can get, can get."
It is the same exactly as mine yesterday, when I said, 'I am base, I am base, words, and nothing more!" "Then they were only words on your part? I thought, on the contrary..." "Well, I don't mind telling you the truth you only! Because you see through a man somehow. Words and actions, truth and falsehood, are all jumbled up together in me, and yet I am perfectly sincere.
One's first impression of Beerjand is a sense of disappointment; the city is a jumbled mass of uninteresting mud buildings, ruined and otherwise, all of the same dismal mud-brown hue.
You stretcher-bearers will kill that poor chap if you try to drag him down here. There is a specially constructed road to the dressing-station over there Bart's Alley, it is called. We cannot have up-and-down traffic jumbled together like this. For heaven's sake, Waddell, pass up word to the C.O. that it is mistaken kindness to allow these fellows down here. He must send them back."
