I heard that flood comin' down long before it got here," replied Slone, deliberately. Brackton averted his gaze, and abruptly rose as if the occasion was ended. "Wal, take my hunch an' leave!" he said, turning away. "Brackton, if you mean well, I'm much obliged," returned Slone, slowly, ponderingly. "But I'll not take the hunch." "Suit yourself," added Brackton, coldly, and he went away.
I like a French cook, and can dine comfortably off a single dish. Society is very much to my taste; I shall indulge it when I am whipped at home." Wilfrid took her hand and pressed his lips to the fingers, keeping his face ponderingly down. He was again so divided that the effort to find himself absorbed all his thinking faculties.
"Perhaps I am too far the other way now." As there was something lurking in this that she could not explain, she added, so quickly as not to allow him time to think of it, "Has my father written to you at all?" "Yes," said Winterborne. She glanced ponderingly up at him. "Not about me?" "Yes."
As he turned from the garden and walked slowly, aimlessly, down the street, his great grey eyes fixed ponderingly upon the breaking clouds, a rainbow bright symbol of promise spanned the heavens. His eyes widened, his lips parted at the wonder and the beauty and the suddenness of it. Whither should he go? Behold an answer meet for a poet! Whither? Whither?

As he held out the wee boots in the palm of his strong hand, his lips moved for a few moments, but they gave forth no sound.
As I looked at them ponderingly, a frog far in the back of the cave gave a discordant, echoing croak, which started the sulky and suspicious black boy who attended me into an abrupt exclamation of semi-fright; while a scrub fowl, scratching for its living overhead, dislodged a chip of granite which went clicking down the rocks.
