The scene of desolation stops him in an instant. He stretches out his head and looks with staring eyes upon the ruin. He snuffs with distended nostrils the smoke that rises from the burning. The villagers gather around. She answers every inquiry with low moans. Gently they lead her horse under the shadow of the great oak before the old Ordinary.
Pierre then had the idea to climb up on the roof and draw us, by means of a rope, towards the left. He was thus able to draw us out of the current. Then, when he again jumped upon the raft, a few thrusts of our poles sent us out into the open. But Gaspard recalled the promise he had made me to stop for our poor Aimee, whose plaintive moans had never ceased.
It was the vanished castle over which he and Miss Parsons had spent so many moans, and yet at the end of it all, Armine saw a sort of incredulous smile on his friend's face. "I don't think it was impossible or unreasonable," he said. "I could have been ordained as curate there, and my mother would have gladly given land, and means, and all." "I was not thinking of that, my boy.
It was but necessary to tear it down, and the incessant, heart-rending cries and moans which rise to the indifferent sky from all points of the earth, like its natural breathing, would be silenced. The evil of the world, he believed, lay in the evil will and in the madness of the people. They themselves were to blame for being unhappy, and they could be happy if they wished.
Then the poor little woman grew quieter, and by her looks and moans, and the clasping of her hands, and her upturned eyes, seemed to be praying; and when Betty stealthily opened the press to take out another candle, her poor mistress uttered another terrible scream, crying
Frightful, unspeakable woe! No end! no bottom! no shore! no hope! O God! O God!" Mrs. Marvyn's eyes grew wilder, she walked the door, wringing her hands, and her words, mingled with shrieks and moans, became whirling and confused, as when in autumn a storm drives the leaves in dizzy mazes. Mary was alarmed, the ecstasy of despair was just verging on insanity. She rushed out and called Mr. Marvyn.
We'll go no more by the light of the moon; The song is done, and we've lost the tune, So I'll go no more a-roving with you, fair maid A-roving, A-roving, &c. the pipes glow in the clear air, and the flying water bubbles and moans. Oh, yes, all is well beautifully well and we need no lights whatever!
Moans came from the bed, but the candle in a bottle, by which the woman was reading, was so placed that we could not see the sufferer. We stood still and did not interrupt the reading. 'Ha! ha! ha! laughed a coarse voice from the side of the chimney: 'the saint, you see, was no better than some of the rest of us! 'I think he was a good deal worse just then, said Falconer, stepping forward.
Claribel earnestly enquired her meaning, and the cause of the confusion she had heard, and with difficulty, amidst her sobs and moans, gathered what Ursula had herself learned from Gabriel. The creditors of Adrian, hearing of the extravagant style in which he lived, concluded he must soon expend his fortune, and that they should then have no chance of receiving what was due to them.
As I halts upon the brow of the hill, she looks up at me very reproachful, and I can see that her prevalent complexion is beginning to turn awful wan and pale. Son, take it from me, when a full-grown she-bull gets wan, she's probably the wannest thing there is in the world. "'Stand back, Scandalous, she moans to me in bull-language.
