The horse is as long and thin as his rider, with a tremendous stride; and his big head, closely reined in, twitches viciously at the bridle. Before the horse and rider, upon the ground, yet as if new-lighted there from an aerial existence, half walks, half flies, a splendid winged figure, one arm outstretched, the other brandishing the palm Victory leading them on.
Presently he laughed a crackling cackle like new-lighted kindling wood; nothing could have been more inhuman in sound. What in particular aroused this arid mirth probably he himself did not know. Maybe it was a native cruelty which had a sort of sardonic pleasure in the miseries of the world.
His voice can now reach from the Atlantic to the Pacific, and, taking wing in his aeroplane, he can fly in one swift flight from Nova Scotia to England, or he can leave Lausanne and, resting upon the icy summit of Mont Blanc thus, like "the herald, Mercury, new-lighted on a heaven-kissing hill" he can again plunge into the void, and thus outfly the eagles themselves.
Some fifteen minutes later they reached the golf-links. "We can go across the links," said Condy, "and strike any number of car lines on the other side." They left the road and struck across the links, Condy smoking his new-lighted pipe. But as they came around the edge of a long line of eucalyptus trees near the teeing ground, a warning voice suddenly called out: "Fore!"
"The front of Jove himself; An eye like Mars to threaten and command; A station like the herald Mercury New-lighted on a heaven-kissing hill; A combination and a form indeed, Where every god did seem to set his seal, To give the world assurance of a man." Hamlet's words are a perfect picture of Mr.
It looks as if it would fly again without the least effort, as if it had just 'new-lighted on a heaven-kissing hill'! Don't you think it perfect, Laura?" "Well yes, I suppose so. I am not so enthusiastic as you are about it." "Why don't you like it?" I would not let Laura see how disappointed I was. "One thing, I don't like statuary in any attitude which, if continued, would seem to be painful.
New-lighted lamps were gaining mastery, and the faces of the crowd showed pale under that glare, while on high the great white clouds slid swiftly, softly, over the purple sky.
It is the leg that first suggested the phantasy of flight. We imagine wings to the figure that is erect upon the vital and tense legs of man; and the herald Mercury, because of his station, looks new-lighted. All this is true of the best leg, and the best leg is the man's. That of the young child, in which the Italian schools of painting delighted, has neither movement nor supporting strength.
Marion was glad of his departure, and to avoid Claire was not difficult, considering what baths, and changing of linen, and brushing of hair they required after their outing. Refreshed and rested, they had scarcely met before the new-lighted fire at twilight when Seth returned, stamping vigorously into the room. "You're the lucky one, Marion," he said.
