Janet sought for others, but they had ceased coming; only the scattered, prowling picketers remained. Over the black rim of the Clarendon Mill to the eastward the sky had caught fire. The sun had risen, the bells were ringing riotously, resonantly in the clear, cold air. Another working day had begun.
I observed that she was flushed, and I put it down to the natural excitement of the artist about to begin work. The orchestra sounded resonantly in the empty theatre, and, under the yellow glare of unshaded electricity, the rehearsal of "Carmen" began at the point where Carmen makes her first entry. As Rosa came to the centre of the stage from the wings she staggered.
Twice he went round, still chanting, but the third time he stooped to pick up a little strip of linen which had fallen from the window, and concealed it in his sleeve. Presently he seated himself again, and, still chanting, spread out the linen in his palm and read the characters upon it. For an instant there was a jerkiness to the voice, and then it droned on resonantly again.
He boggled over the word, then got it out resonantly. A man he knew well. Not a young man, perhaps certainly he was not going to hand his only daughter to any boy, a mere novice in life! but a man who could give her the position she deserved. Not only a rich man, but an influential one. His name, he brought out at last, was Hamdi Bey. He was a general in the armies of the sultan.
By this time, Mavis had mastered the piano's peculiarities; she played her second waltz resonantly, rhythmically. "I think you're up to 'Poulter's," said the little woman critically, when Mavis had finished. "And what about terms?" "What about them?" asked Mavis pleasantly. "It's a great honour being connected with 'Poulter's," the little woman hazarded. "No doubt."
Stolid and unshaven fishermen, in drab scows, along the canoe's route, looked up from their lines, in bovine wonder at the vision of loveliness which swept resonantly past them. For the quartet were warbling. They were also doing queer musical stunts which are fondly miscalled "close harmony."
Where Bolderwood and his companions were waiting they had an excellent view of the fort. At sunset the garrison was paraded and one gun boomed resonantly across the calm lake. Just before it became too dark to see the other shore, the Americans observed a man come out of the covered way by which the fortifications were entered and approach the shore.
As the steel cone sank the whistle bellowed resonantly. Down, down, till the waves swept over its top. Then, slowly it began to rise. The bellowing cut off, and the air rushed into the intake tube. Percy watched it, fascinated. Jim's voice roused him to their peril. "Look sharp! Be ready!" Less than ten feet of wild black water lay between the madly leaping bow and the buoy.
And Rybin, who at first seemed such a staid, wise man, now aroused in her a blind hostility. "Heretic! Sedition-maker!" she thought, listening to his even voice flowing resonantly from his deep chest. He, too, had come he was indispensable. He spoke confidently and composedly: "The holy place must not be empty.
Overhead the wind stirred more resonantly in the pines, and in the bushes birds called to each other. Presently after, they rose from where they had lain all the afternoon and strolled along the needled slope to where, through a vista in the trees, they looked down on the lake and the hamlet that clustered near it.
