The wheels, bodies and tongues of the carts; and the canopies that cover those in which women are carried, are nightmares of yellows, greens, blues, reds and purples, like cheap wooden toys. Everything artificial at Jeypore is as bright and gay as dyes and paint can make it.

This den isn't big enough for you, me, and the 'original spirits' you wing every night. I'm off to the nets. Coming? No? Jove! Grimmy, what nightmares you must take to bed with you every night." But the kindly Fates had the keeping of the chums' friendship in their safe keeping, and I haven't observed yet, that Grim and Wilson are less friendly than they used to be.

How many happy dreams followed the day of joy and how many nightmares the heavy feast is more than we are prepared to put on record. The outbreak of the Civil War, the most momentous conflict of recent times, was marked by a wave of fervent enthusiasm in the States of the South which swept with the swiftness of a prairie fire over the land.

He regained consciousness. He complained of headaches and, after he had slept, of nightmares. The next day he went into shock for a period of several hours.

She stood by the stove, shivering slightly, and pleading with her escort to make haste, to find some way to get the car running again. They might be followed "Oh, nonsense, Helen!" cried Lacey. "You are tormenting yourself with nightmares. Be sensible and get dry."

The poor Russian Nation, most pitiable of loyal Nations, struggling patiently ahead, on those bad terms, under such CATINS and foul Nightmares, has it, shall we say, quite gone without conquest in this mad War? Perhaps, not quite.

Had she not felt that something terrible would happen at the Works some day? There had happened a thing more terrible than all her nightmares had devised.... She did not remember going downstairs at all. But she must have gone down very fast, for when she opened the door the two men were just stepping into the vestibule, Chas's hand reaching out toward the bell....

I was trembling with cold, drenched as with water so that my relaxing hand made a wet mark on the table beneath the lamp. This much might have been caused by nightmare.
