"Oh! oh! oh! pah! phew!" The victim writhed and spluttered protests. "Dry up Garm, you great donkey! Piff! you're smothering me beast!
I often go out with my gun, and shoot them for my dinner. Piff, paff! with two shots I have directly a whole dishful."
They were not far from the road now, but he saw that he could pass them easily. "Halt! halt!" they shouted, breathless. Instinctively he ducked, and at the same moment piff! piff! their revolvers began, and two bullets sang past near enough to make his ears tingle.
He is unmarried also, though they say, too, that twice he had a wife, who died, and now he does not turn to look at women, which is strange in any man, and shows that he will escape trouble and succeed.

"It is about ten o'clock when the dam thing come. Piff! go a hot splash of air in my face, and then I know that it is all up with Gal Bargon.

I'm an American first, last, and all the time. I'll show 'em that when I strike Europe. Piff! My cig's out.
"I have deferred my service until I have done my thesis," said Herr Heinrich. "Now all that will be Piff! And my thesis three-quarters finished." "That is serious," said Teddy. "Verdammte Dummheit!" said Herr Heinrich. "Why do they do such things?"
Oscar asked nothing better. Hardly had he entered the yard than piff! paff! the play began again. Such a game he had never had before, nor with such players.
