Sunday morning dawned rain-washed and tempestuous, and the way the ship heaved was not encouraging, but I rose, or rather I descended from my perch did I tell you I had an upper berth? and walked with an undulating motion towards my bath.
Only his small unfreckled nose showed, drawing in the rain-washed breeze that came swirling upon his bed through the open window. "It's my beach!" he told Cis proudly the next morning. "I waded honest, I did! And I pretty near swimmed!" He felt stronger, and consequently did not hate his housework so much. As for his appearance, Mr.
I have no doubt his heart is sore over it at this moment, and that he is grieving in a way that would shock you, could you comprehend it." "Enough said, mother, enough said. I'll try to be fair." He went to his room and stood looking out at the rain-washed earth and the falling leaves. The sky was heavy and drab.
And with these another carrying very certainly no hint of things oriental about her an English woman and of the people, in dull homely clothing, grave of aspect and of bearing; yet behind whose statuesque and sternly patient beauty a great flame seemed to quiver, offering sharp enough contrast to the frail glintings of the rain-washed sunset amid which she, just now, moved.
Pebbles and shale went flying from the horse's hoofs as the sheriff tore down the trail toward Melissy. He cut off at an angle and dashed through cactus and over rain-washed gullies at breakneck speed, pounding up the stiff slope to the summit. He dragged his pony to a halt, and leaped off at the same instant. Melissy came to him with flashing eyes.

I paused to listen to the lowing of some cows down the river. All the sweet sounds and odors of evening were in the air, and the rain-washed woodland of the Neosho Valley was in its richest green.
But this is a bronc of another color. Lead me to that trouble you was promisin' a while ago." Beresford led him to it, by way of a rain-washed gully, up which they trod their devious path slowly and without noise. From the gully they snaked through the dry grass to a small ditch that had been built to drain the camping-ground during spring freshets.
A large man sat in the shadow of a little rain-washed tent one golden May morning and gazed with unseeing eyes at the rich spectacle spread before him by Nature. The sky was a dome of blue velvet, mottled with white clouds, and against the line of the horizon a belt of intense green told where the forest was springing into new life under the vivid touch of spring.
Though the night had been stormy, the sun rose brightly on the rain-washed streets, and the roofs and walls stood out with a peculiar clearness, and with a more vivid color than usual, against the deep blue of the sky.
