Then at the sound of a pudgy blow upon a table or high abusive accents in the rapid, elaborate cadences of the domiciled East Indian tongue, Hari Babu would glance at Gobind Babu with a careful smile, for the manager-sahib who dispensed so much galli was now receiving the same, and defenceless. The manager sat at his desk when Hilda went in.
But Patten had won in the initial skirmish with old man Death. At least, so Struve was given to feel. Virginia, with a quick look at Patten's complacent face, was moved with sudden, almost insistent longing, that Rod Norton's life might be given into her own hands rather than remain in the pudgy hands of a man she at once disliked as an individual and failed to admire as a physician.
Two inches of a spotted, soft-brimmed hat were pulled carelessly over his eyes. His face was round and full, but slightly seamed. His hands were large, his walk uneven, and rather inclined to a side swing, or the sailor's roll. He seemed an odd, pudgy person for so large a fame. "Is this Mr. Potter?" "I'm the man." "I live on a little hummock at the east of Mystic Island, off Noank." "You do?"
Ganser's mouth opened and shut slowly several times and his whiskers bristled. "Is this fellow telling the truth?" he asked Lena in a tone that made her shiver and shrink away from her husband. She began to cry. "He made me do it, pa," she whined. "Go to your mother," shouted Ganser, pointing his pudgy finger tremulously toward the door. "Move!" Lena, drying her eyes with her sleeve, fled.
The head of the French nation, a short, pudgy man, the incarnation of pontifying mediocrity, went by with an expression on his face like that of a terrified, elderly, pink rabbit. The bescrawled carriage and its humiliated occupant passed by to an accompaniment of jeering. Everybody parties and populace was jeering. The scene was disgusting.
Thus, by the pure white bond of her filial love, each day the charming girl grew more and more like her dead mother. Light blue eyes: Flaxen hair; Rosy cheeks Dimples there! These are Baby's. Pudgy fists; Ruddy toes; Kissy lips Mother knows! These are Baby's. Cooing voice; Winning smiles; Pleading arms Wanton wiles! These are Baby's. Yearning love; Growing fears; Grief and worry All the years.
Diana and I thought this was because she had never had a lover of her own. Somehow, it seemed impossible to think of lovers in connection with Miss Emily. She was short and stout and pudgy, with a face so round and fat and red that it seemed quite featureless; and her hair was scanty and gray. She walked with a waddle, just like Mrs. Rachel Lynde, and she was always rather short of breath.
Jukesbury insisted, and waved a pudgy hand in the moonlight. "No, really, I cannot permit it. We will throw it away, if you please, and say no more about it," and his glance followed the glowing flight of his cigar-end somewhat wistfully.
"It's like ye're too purticular," she added, her first remark not having met with any response. She turned on the chair and looked down upon her old chum. She was sitting on the floor surrounded by a pile of fresh-cut muslin; the latest McCann baby was tugging with might and main at her apron in vain endeavor to hoist himself upon his pudgy uncertain legs. Aileen was laughing at his efforts.
"Doll-faced," snorted the old man, who had not the least idea what Terry Temple looked like, not having laid his eyes on her for the matter of years. "Dumpy, pudgy, squidge-nosed little fool. I'll run both her and her thief of a father out of the country." "An'," continued Guy Little, "I didn't exac'ly' say, m'lord, as how this Terry Temple party was after him. I said as how he was after her!
