The loud winds whistled, and the snowflakes kissed his cheeks and his nose; but he thought of his playmate and started out bravely. "Moo! moo!" called the old cow from the stable. Hans knew her voice. "Bring me my salt," she seemed to say. "When I come back," he answered, as he struggled up the frozen road.
If I strike a rich deep tone upon the Burmese gong, I must continue to strike upon it until I can draw his attention to something else. Once, the cook, hearing the din, thought that I hinted for my dinner. Being an obliging creature, she fell into such a flurry and so stirred her pans to push the cooking forward, that presently she burned the meat. Or if I moo like a cow, I must moo until sunset.
That the story of Isis and Osiris is a mythical account of CHAACMOL and MOÓ, from all the circumstances connected with it, according to the relations of the priests of Egypt that tally so closely with what we learn in Chichen-Itza from the bas-reliefs, it seems impossible to doubt.
I disliked to have the cow there, because I knew her inclination to pull up the stake, and transfer her field of mowing to the garden, but especially because of her voice. She has the most melancholy "moo" I ever heard. It is like the wail of one uninfallible, excommunicated, and lost. It is a most distressing perpetual reminder of the brevity of life and the shortness of feed.
"We can ride on the trolley!" cried the twins. "Mamma and I go anywhere by ourselves," said Mary Virginia. "Moo!" said something down below; and when they looked, there was one of the cows rubbing her head against the ladder. "Don't be afraid, Mary Virginia," said Louisa. "Cows can't climb ladders." "Don't be afraid, Mary Virginia," said John. "I'll drive her away."
Jack thought she might speak again and he patted her sides and nose, but the only answer Brindle Cow made was to rub her nose against him and moo. After a while Jack heard some one calling his name and running down the road. It was Nina. "Oh, I am so glad I have found you!" she said. "Come quickly; something has happened to Simon."
The little calf says—moo, moo, moo, The little duck says—quack, quack, quack, The little goose says—ga, ga, ga. The hen goes strutting through the porch; Troo-roo-roo-roo-roo, she’ll say, Troo-roo-roo-roo-roo, she’ll say! “Give him something, Mitya,” said Grushenka. “Give him a present, he’s poor, you know. Ah, the poor, the insulted!... Do you know, Mitya, I shall go into a nunnery.
Only it is firmly established that a scientific analysis of language leaves a certain number of roots which are not mere sound-imitations, such as “bow wow,” or “moo moo.” There are people who have taken much pains to discover whether the roots ever had an independent existence, or if they have merely been scientifically abstracted, or shelled out of the words in which they occur.
These and many other sculptures caused me to suspect that this monument had been the mausoleum raised to the memory of the warrior with the shield covered with the round dots. I took it for the totem of his wife, MOÓ, macaw; and so it proved to be when later I was able to interpret their ideographic writings.
Through the door of the kitchen, Chad could see the old mother with her crane and pots and cooking-pans; outside, he could hear the moo of the old brindle, the bleat of her calf, the nicker of a horse, one lusty sheep-call, and the hungry bellow of young cattle at the barn, where Tall Tom was feeding the stock. Presently Rube stamped in with a back log and Dolph came through with a milk-pail.
