What's the use of your delicate, weak-backed theories that require a score of centuries to substantiate them?" "Your theory about the bridges will soon be settled," remarked Leonard, ominously, "and I fear it will prove correct. At this rate the town will have to pay for half a dozen new ones bridges, I mean." "Well amended," added Webb. "Just hear the rain!" said Leonard, ruefully.
I vant to know vhat all you is doin' here, und und if I ain't satisfied I take some of you and and vipe up de ground vid you, hear me!" His manner was ominously calm, but his words sent a shiver through the crowd. He was and looked a tremendous figure. He had moved to the side of the girl, as if to defend her, and his clear blue eyes went searchingly from one man to the next.
The coat worn by Colonel Calhoun is itself nothing less than an evolution of genius. Mr. Hargraves has captured his public. "How does that sound, Major, for a first-nighter?" "I had the honor" the Major's voice sounded ominously frigid "of witnessing your very remarkable performance, sir, last night." Hargraves looked disconcerted. "You were there?
She scratch you las' week, 'n' some day she bite you; 'n' if she bite you, Massa Dick " Old Sophy nodded her head ominously, as if she could say a great deal more. Elsie's father, whose fault was to indulge her in everything, found that it would never do to let these children grow up together. A sharper quarrel than usual decided this point.
In the little bamboo grove he found the elder lady lying back in her chair, which creaked ominously, and asking in a faint voice whether he were Don Carlos. 'No, answered Estella, with a momentary twinkle in her grave, dark eyes; 'this is Mr. Conyngham my aunt, Senora Barenna, and my cousin Julia. The ladies bowed.
Then Lem sent for a doctor from Rutland who, as soon as he examined the child, stuck out his lower lip and rubbed his chin ominously. He pronounced the trouble something with a long name which none of us had ever heard, and said that Frank would be a hopeless cripple if it, were not cured soon.
It was so still that the boy, high up on the sandstone pillar, could hear the wind rising among the far spurs west of Goliath. The foliage near at hand was ominously quiet in the sultry air. Once there was a flash of lightning from the black clouds, followed by a low muttering of thunder. Then all was still again, so still!
The inquisitors and the prisoner had talked together almost like friends discussing a not very vital matter. And yet the sensation had been overwhelming. . . . As he rose at last, still watching the emptying court, he heard a tap on the door, and before he could speak, the Abbot of Westminster rustled up the steps, in his habit and cross and gold chain. His face looked ominously strained and pale.
The tellers at the bank are good for fifteen minutes or so after DeLancey has bought his cigar; he strolls in and gossips with them until his father begins to snort ominously in his little railed-off pen marked "President." Cooney Simpson, the tailor, likes DeLancey, and they talk clothes for half an hour almost every morning.
The smaller island, on the other hand, can hardly receive immigration except through the larger, though its southern ports look out, somewhat ominously to the eye of history, towards Spain. The western and northern parts of the larger island are mountainous, and it is divided into two very unequal parts by the Cheviot Hills and the mosses of the Border.
