Tommie didn't wink, for he knew the ways of court, his grandfather having been chief mouser to old King Adelbert; but he purred a warm good purr, like a mill grinding out pure white grain. "If the sky in heaven be blue, Then Mountfalcon loves you true; If the sun set in the West, Lord Mountfalcon loves you best." "You see," he added, "I'm not much of a poet, but those are the facts."
A few choice hens and roosters strutted around the rear of the cabin quite at home, and a bright yellow cat purred and dozed on the tiny porch by day and slept in the lean-to bedroom by night. "She takes a mighty heap of trouble to hide her tracks," Norman Teale confided to Tansey Moore; "but spy is writ large and plain all over her.
"I think he was very lucky to get her," argued Aggie in defence of her friend. "Oh, you do, do you?" answered Jimmy in a very aggrieved tone. "She is one of the prettiest girls in Chicago," said Aggie. "You're pretty too," answered Jimmy, "but it doesn't make an idiot of you." "It's TIME you said something nice to me," purred Aggie; and her arm stole fondly around Jimmy's large neck.
She said, in a purring voice: "Ach, so! I did not understand. The gentleman must excuse me." And she purred again: "So!" It was then I noticed that her eyes were fastened upon my chest. I followed their direction. They rested on the silver badge I had stuck in my braces. I understood and held my peace. Silence was my only trump until I knew how the land lay.
Norah and Tommy had spent cheery hours over those draperies. The curtains for Tommy's "suite" had been Norah's gift of dark-green linen, embroidered in dull blue silks; and in the corner there was a little sofa with cushions of the same. Tommy had purred was, in fact, still purring over that home-made furniture, and declared it superior to any that money could buy.
At the corner below a shuddering automobile purred its ugly song, the driver sitting far back in the shelter of the top, her eyes fixed steadily upon the two who lurked in the shadow of the wall that surrounded the almost deserted club house.
He pointed through the open door; it was a hot night. 'Can you blame me? The Keneu purred above his pipe like a large and very happy cat 'Don't blame you in the least. It's uncommonly good of you, and all the rest of it, but every man even you, Torp must consider his work. I know it sounds brutal, but Dick's out of the race, down, gastados expended, finished, done for.
She arched her back against the roots, purring loudly, while the little ones arched and purred against her sides. Then she bent her savage head and licked them fondly with her tongue, while they rubbed as close to her as they could get, passing between her legs as under a bridge, and trying to lick her face in return; till all their tongues were going at once and the family lay down together.
He had just time to shout to the sentry who was bringing his piece to his shoulder to stop him from firing, or in another instant Faithful would probably have been shot through the body. She purred and fawned on her master, and took every means of showing her delight at having again met him, though he could not help suspecting that she had approached the sentry with no very peaceful intentions.
Miss Prissy looked dreamily into the fire, and the old man snored wheezily in a corner. A gray cat purred in Miss Bell's lap, and Miss Bessie was writing some nonsense in my note-book. A sharp knock fell upon the door, and something that sounded like the butt of a musket shook the porch without. The girls turned pale, and I think that Miss Bessie seized my arm and clung to it.
