But for the rumbling of the thunder, the only sound from the mysterious world outside would have been the scream, now like the cry of a cat, now like a puppy's bark, of an owl flying with muffled wings up and down the valley. Very different, however, was this little owl's cry from the madman's shout of the great eagle owl, which I had often heard in the rocky vale of the Alzon.
Dolly, how could you! and 'Poor little pup! all crowded round in pity and indignation, and Wilfred observed, 'I told you so! 'You'll get no change but that out of the Lady of the Rueful Countenance, said Jasper. Mysie had for once nothing to say in Dolores's defence, being equally hurt for Fly's sake and the puppy's.
But the smile of him it was that won Bertha, when she came to work in the little restaurant. It was a smile that put the world at its ease; it proclaimed the coming of morning over the meadows, and, taking every bystander into an April friendship, ran on suddenly into a laugh that was like silver, and like a strange puppy's claiming you for the lost master.
When I address any one, I do not usually expect to be answered by deputy I think I have been useful to your father, and friendly and civil to yourself, and therefore am now surprised And yet," said he, stopping short, "why should I be surprised at that or anything else? or why should I take up my time in writing to such a scoundrel? I shan't be always kept in prison, I suppose; and to break that puppy's bones when I get out, shall be my first employment."
I met Renniker the other day at the club. He is a man who knows everything from the method of trimming a puppy's tail for a dog-show, without being disqualified, to the innermost workings of the mind of every European potentate. If I want information on any subject under heaven I ask Renniker. "Can you tell me," said I, "the most God-forsaken spot in England?"
I dropped my uncle's half-sovereign back into my purse, with the rather sad conviction that after all I was not the only honest and righteous person in the world. "What do you think," he cried, almost before I entered the office "what do you think they've done? I knew that young puppy's coming was no good to us!
"Nevertheless, catch hold of his ears and feel them." To humour the fellow Chichikov did as he had requested, remarking: "Yes, he seems likely to turn out well." "And feel the coldness of his nose! Just take it in your hand." Not wishing to offend his interlocutor, Chichikov felt the puppy's nose, saying: "Some day he will have an excellent scent." "Yes, will he not?
She was Barnriff's leading and only modiste. The boy at her side continued his amusement at the puppy's expense. He held it in his two hands and squeezed its little body until the poor creature gasped and retched. Then he swung it to and fro by its diminutive tail. Then he threw it up in the air, making it turn a somersault, and catching it again clumsily.
His forepaws were absurdly small, even for a puppy's. Above them the ridging of the stocky leg-bones gave as clear promise of mighty size and strength as did the amazingly deep little chest and square shoulders.
"Show Mis' Mayberry the puppy's foot, 'Lias." "Why, the pitiful little thing!" exclaimed Mother when a small, brown, crushed paw was presented to her inspection. "What happened to it?" "Mr. Petway's horse stepped on it he didn't care. He just got in the buggy and went on. I'm a-going to kill him with a gun when I get one."
