At times it was very pleasant. He had the misfortune to break his leg in climbing over some lava-bergs, which crippled him for some weeks, but he was now getting all right again. This account of his experiences, which I obtained from him during the evening, took many divergences into the "Ohs!" and "Ahs!" and was really both instructive and entertaining.
She was not a good scholar, and it took her some time to read the letter, a proceeding which she punctuated with such "Ohs" and "Ahs" and gaspings and "God bless my souls" as nearly drove the carpenter and his wife, who were leaning forward impatiently, to the verge of desperation. "Who's it from?" asked Mr. Tidger for the third time. "I don't know," said Mrs. Pullen.
The children had all gathered round her, admiring her with loud ohs! and ahs! as if she were some wondrous incarnation, not to be too nearly approached, and on no account to be touched. The elaborate dressing of her hair would not allow of her stooping over them as usual.
"I am sure they can see in here by that looking-glass." "Why won't you let me kiss just that jolly little curl on your neck?" "I am certain some one is coming oh! oh!" These "ohs" were caused by Augustus having got so beside himself that he actually bent down and kissed my shoulder! A sudden sense of helplessness came over me. I felt crushed, as if I could not fight any more, as if all was ended.
"At this moment," she said, "I should like to hear speak only figures on tapestries which should say tender things, ancient and precious as themselves." And the handsome Prince, carried away by the flood of melody, sang. His voice displayed itself like a peacock's plumage, and died in spasms of "ohs" and "ahs."
In answer to Vulcan's triumphant summons all the Olympians defiled before the lovers with ohs and ahs of stupefaction and gaiety. Jupiter said, "I think it is light conduct on your part, my son, to summon us to see such a sight as this." Then a reaction took place in favor of Venus.
Thank you a thousand times. It was just splendid!" They were all in a burst of enthusiasm with "ohs and ahs." But Hanny was very glad to get back to her father's protecting hand. She felt as if she had been on a long and perilous journey. They took their seats, and after one more caravan the performances began. The trick elephant did several odd things rather clumsily.
I on one occasion walked gently up the stairs, knocked at the door, and opened it, when there met me a girl an angel of light! You know my Magdalene! it was she. I stood rooted to the spot. No, no, Salvator, I won't treat you to any 'Ohs' or 'Ahs. I need but say that on the instant, when I saw the loveliest of all ladies, I fell into the deepest, fondest affection for her.
The one saw a mountebank and impostor the other recognised a profound artist and an inspired prophet. But while the discourse was drawing towards a close, while the preacher was in one of his most eloquent bursts the ohs! and ahs! of which were the grand prelude to the pathetic peroration the dim outline of a female form, in the distance, riveted the eyes and absorbed the thoughts of Maltravers.
