Vague, indeterminate passings of figures through a fluid of unreality, like submarine life behind glass. Then somehow they were out again into the gloom of wings and then on to the white, incredible humdrum of the side street, standing there beside the little door marked "Private," Bruce at her side, rather quivery at the flanges and mopping constantly at the damp rim of his hair.
He was coming from Boston on a battleship, and she and Barby were going out to meet him as soon as it was sighted in the harbor. She had that quivery, excited feeling which sometimes seizes travelers as they near the journey's end, as if she herself were a little ship, putting into a long-wished-for port.
She's made me show up like a bad old copper penny 'longside of her. A year ago I could have taken this old Award without a flicker of my littlest eyelash, but just knowing her makes it impossible! Now what shall we do?" Jerry's remonstrance a little quivery, because she was deeply moved by Ginny's unexpected tribute was drowned out in a general assent and a clamorous approval of Ginny's words.
Very likely it was only a sort of spasm an electric, magnetic thing she had heard of something of the sort. Yes, and she had felt funny herself that evening a numb, quivery, prickly kind of sensation: it may have been the thunder-storm! It was strange, though; she never remembered to have felt it before.

Almost immediately there were refreshments, carried in on portentous black tin trays by a younger Cobb in pigtails and by Mrs. Cobb, swayback from a great outheld array of tumblers and bottles. A shout went up.
