"Jogged off your range quite a bit, haven't you?" she suggested. "Some. I'll take two bits' worth of that smokin', nina." She shook her head. "I'm no little girl. Don't you know I'm now half past eighteen?" "My my.
Along with this new development of the incised ware goes a development of the unincised, whose surface is now not only polished to the highest degree of lustre, but is thereafter rippled in vertical lines by the pressure of some blunt instrument, so as to produce an undulating effect, like that of the ripple marks on sand.
"You can try," Askew replied, and jumping down stood in the water, holding out his hand. "Come on; there's not much risk of a slip." Since it was too late to refuse, Grace took his hand and he waded across, steadying her, while the current rippled round his legs.
As they approached the river they found the tide was running strong out of it, so that some distance away from the stream it gurgled and rippled alongside the boat as the crew of black men pulled strongly against it.
