Gray was galloping about in the woods among swarms of yellow and brown butterflies, swishing his net like a polo mallet, and drawing bridle every now and then to examine some specimen and drop it into the cyanide jar which bulged from his pocket. "I got a lot of those dog's-head fellows!" he called out to Shiela as she came past with Hamil.
Mallet calculates, an initial velocity of projection of above 600 feet per second. Such as that given by Professor Phillips in his Vesuvius. Etna, unlike Vesuvius, has ever been a burning mountain; hence it was well known as such to classic writers before the Christian era.
Mallet, how could you let him?" asked Mrs. Hudson, terribly. "Everything I have is at his service," said Rowland, feeling ill. "Of course Mr. Mallet will help you, my son!" cried the poor lady, eagerly. "Oh, leave Mr. Mallet alone!" said Roderick. "I have squeezed him dry; it 's not my fault, at least, if I have n't!" "Roderick, what have you done with all your money?" his mother demanded.
Will shoveled the loosened ice out, then seized the axe and worked for a short time with the same spirit that animated the Doctor. And so by turns they kept the axe and shovel flying, making very rapid progress. They soon were too deep to use long-handled tools, and resorted to mallet and chisel, and a short-handled hand axe. Slowly and more slowly progressed the work as the shaft grew deeper.
It may be played either as "all strokes," in which the total number of strokes to get through all the wickets is the final score, or as in golf, "all wickets," in which the score for each wicket is taken separately, as each hole in golf is played. The mallet used is somewhat different from a croquet mallet. The handle is longer and a bevel is made on one end to raise or "loft" the ball as in golf.
"Had I as many sons as I have hairs, I would not wish them to a fairer death." Macbeth, v. 8. "That e'er o'erclouded," I should prefer. MS. Exit. Eringoes are often mentioned as a provocative by early writers: Merry Wives, v. 5, &c. Sc. mallet. Sc. I lying in my trundle-bed. To "make ready" is to dress; so to "make unready" is to undress. The expression was very common.
I could hear as I sat there the tapping of his mallet and chisel as he worked on the coffin, while Coytmore lay with the flag over him, his sword and hat by his side there was no fire, because of him, and only a candle at his head, or I think the savages would have seen the light. But the work being finished and everything still, they supposed all asleep.
I am sure we may!" exclaimed Arthur. "Oh, do let us loose him!" "Thank you, Mallet. Thank you, Faithful. I am much obliged to you," whispered Houlston, as Arthur undid the handkerchief which bound his wrists. The others were in the meantime casting off those round his legs. We lifted him up, for he was so numbed and chilled that he could not walk.
Even Mallet de Graville frowned at the sight of the sire's infirmity, even Turold the dwarf shook his head. William put down the boy, gave the brief order for the stranger's admission, and, punctilious in ceremonial, beckoning De Graville to follow him, passed at once into the next chamber, and seated himself on his chair of state.
In the Troitski Cathedral, with its five domes, is a wooden cross, fourteen feet high, carved by the versatile Peter the Great, who learned the use of mallet and chisel while working as a shipwright in Holland after he ascended the throne."
