Between you and me, no spectre of mystery shall longer stalk. If you had trusted me, and confessed the facts before the trial, you would have muzzled me effectually, and prevented the employment of detectives whom I have hissed on your brother's track. Why did you lead me astray, and confirm my suspicion that you were shielding a lover?"
"Have you ever seen it before?" I asked. "Several times," she answered, still trembling. "She is a pet of the princess's. You are a stranger, or you would know her!" "I am a stranger," I answered. "But is she, then, allowed to run loose?" "She is kept in a cage, her mouth muzzled, and her feet in gloves of crocodile leather.
I never knew a dog from the time we were kids that didn't hate you on sight." "Yes, and you're a regular fool over them," William retorted. "You take care of him and get the money for him, and I'll look out for the machine and sell that. But you've got to keep that dog muzzled or there'll be trouble coming your way fast and plenty. See?" Shorty did not answer and William went out.
Tarzan recognized Numa as he whom he had muzzled with the hide of Horta, the boar as he whom he handled by a rope for two days and finally loosed in a German front-line trench, and he knew that Numa would recognize him that he would remember the sharp spear that had goaded him into submission and obedience and Tarzan hoped that the lesson he had learned still remained with the lion.
To our astonishment, the great creature does nothing but stand still, hold himself up, and roar yes, roar; a long, serious, remonstrative roar. How is this? Bob and I are up to them. He is muzzled!
Only I and my ferocious jailer, who watches every movement of mine with mad suspicion, and the black grate which has caught in its iron embrace and muzzled the infinite this is my life. Silently accepting the low bows, in my cold estrangement from the people I am passing my last road. I am thinking of death ever more frequently, but even before death I do not bend my fearless look.
I've sat here an' listened, an' I ain't put in my oar, but I can't be muzzled, an' you might as well hear me out because there ain't power enough in the world to stop me." "An' supposin' " Tom Burton spoke brusquely, yet with something more like amusement in his eyes than had previously shown there "supposin' I ain't inclined to listen to you?"
I can make such revelations concerning those in high places ay, in the highest places," he added, with a vindictive look at Buckingham, "that they will not dare to molest me." "The hound must be muzzled," said Buckingham, in a low tone, to the Prince. "He must," replied Charles. "Let the prisoners be removed. They are committed to the Fleet Prison." "Prisoners!" exclaimed Mompesson.
A mule would not answer; a truck was furnished by the army but almost impossible; a camel was too hard on the backbone; besides at certain seasons they are vicious as a Hun and unless muzzled will snatch your arm in their strong jaws and snap it as a clap pipe stem. In this land of rugs, where is the magic carpet?
His threat of resignation at least effected this, and, although the President still managed or mismanaged the grand operations, the Secretary of War was muzzled. It might be objected that in this instance Jackson showed little respect for the discipline he so rigidly enforced, and that in the critical situation of the Confederacy his action was a breach of duty which was almost disloyalty.
