And the low-spoken orders to Reo were, to take her a road she had never been, and drive till she told him to stop. Then she threw herself back against the cushions, and buried her face in hands, and tried to think. If that was to leave her 'practically to Mr. Falkirk, her knowledge of English was somewhat deficient.
It's one or the other within the next sixty seconds. Turn around!" No man in his senses would ever doubt the determined purpose lying behind those few low-spoken, earnest words. Whoever this man might be, whatever his purpose, he was assuredly not there in sport, and Burke wheeled about as though some concealed spring controlled his action. "Good," commented Winston, briefly.
When he at last spoke again his voice was so weak that Harlan had to kneel and lean close to him to hear the low-spoken words that issued from between his quavering lips: "Harlan you're white; you've got to be white to Barbara! That paper I was tryin' to stuff into my gun when you come around the rock. You take it. It'll tell you where the gold is.
Just at the last she detained her for a moment to say with an effort that was plainly no light one, "Juliet, don't forget I am here if if you ever need a friend!" And then Juliet surprised her by a sudden, close embrace and a low-spoken, "I shall never forget you or your goodness to me." But a second later she was gone, and Vera was left to wonder.
Hudson stepped to the closed door and listened, his great red head bent almost to the keyhole. After a few moments he stood up and softly turned the handle. He made a brief sign to her and passed noiselessly into the room. Dot remained where she was. She heard Lucas accost him at once, and caught the murmur of the man's low-spoken reply. And then in a moment Hudson came back to her.
"It will be better so." Something in the quiet acceptance of his tone moved her to a softer, more wistful emotion. "If it had been anything anything but that, Garth, I think I could have borne it." There was a depth of appeal in the low-spoken words. But he ignored it, opposing a reckless indifference to her softened mood.
Oh, Jeff, Jeff! is it as bad as that? Do you hate me so badly as that?" He made a movement of the arms that was curiously passionate, but he did not attempt to take her into them. "I don't hate you," he said, in a voice that sounded half-choked. "I love you so horribly" there was a note of ferocity in the low-spoken words "that I can never know any peace without you!
He therefore turned his back and pretended to brush from his sleeve a speck of dust revealed to his searching eye in the strong afternoon light which streamed through the open door. Then Vjera's low-spoken word of thanks and her light tread made him aware that she had received her little gratuity; he stood politely aside while she passed out, and then went down the half-dozen steps with her.
And when he had finished the low-spoken tale of his villainy even the rough-natured Atkins was filled with pity when he saw how the poor wretch was suffering, both physically and mentally. "You've done right, Jessop, in telling us this; it'll be all the better for you when you have to stand before the Almighty, won't it, Mr. Carr?"
The dead ask it of you and it is God's will." And as, drawn by the last, low-spoken words, Julie looked up into his face, she felt herself enveloped by a mystical and passionate tenderness that paralyzed her resistance. A force, superhuman, laid its grasp upon her will. With a burst of tears, half in despair, half in revolt, she submitted.
