"I mean they didn't slant the same when he talked. One was crooked." Again the officers smiled and the one who had been speaking said thoughtfully, "I see." Tom shifted back to his other foot while the officer seemed to ruminate. "He had a breed mark, too," Tom volunteered. "A what?" "Breed mark it's different from a species mark," he added naively. The officer looked at him rather curiously.
Here Pleyel sunk into anxious silence, and gave me leisure to ruminate on this inexplicable event. I am at a loss to describe the sensations that affected me. I am not fearful of shadows. The tales of apparitions and enchantments did not possess that power over my belief which could even render them interesting.
Their drinking is always done on foot. They stand silent at a bar, with two small glasses before them. Out of one they swallow the whisky, and from the other they take a gulp of water, as though to rinse their mouths. After that, they again sit down and ruminate. It was thus that men enjoyed themselves at Cairo. I cannot tell what was the existing population of Cairo.
Meantime the King, leaving Napoleon in the chateau to ruminate on the fickleness of fortune, drove off to see his own victorious soldiers, who greeted him with huzzas that rent the air, and must have added to the pangs of the captive Emperor.
Snff snff they were mornings just like this at home when I went fishing. Cool and sweet and full of scent. Snff snff !" We sat still behind the ledge and let the air and scenery revive kind memories. The only noise was what our horses made cropping the grass in a hollow behind us, for the Armenians were well content to ruminate.
When the new stage-road was built and travel over this road always very slim and precarious completely declined, Greek George removed, but his log hotel and bunk-house remained until a few years ago. We lunch by the side of the old chimney and ruminate over the scenes that may have transpired here in those early days.
So far, there was no clue to guide him; he could not even imagine or suspect any adequate reason for her absence; he could only ruminate sorrowfully on the fact that she was gone, and lament his inability to find her. He was pondering in this fashion when a gentle knock at the door aroused him from his reverie. "Enter," he gruffly and impatiently responded. The door opened and Lettice entered.
Which of these two is the truth I may not know, and if I did, took no notice of it when I assented to the proposition, all oxen ruminate; but I perceive, on consideration, that one or other of them must be true.
My thoughts were too tumultuous, and my situation too precarious, to allow me to sleep. The girl, on the contrary, soon sank into a sweet oblivion of all her cares. She laid herself, by my advice, upon the bed, and left me to ruminate without interruption. I was not wholly free from the apprehension of danger.
Whereat the judge was mightily amazed, having expected to be greeted by her with the heartiest of cheer, and began to ruminate thus: Perhaps I am so changed by the melancholy and prolonged heartache, to which I have been a prey since I lost her, that she does not recognise me.
