Then O king, the wicked Salwa, thus afflicted by the Vrishnis, mounted on his car of precious metals, and leaving Dwaraka scudded through the skies!" "Vasudeva said, 'When Salwa had left the city of the Anarttas, I returned to it, O king, on the completion of thy great Rajasuya sacrifice!
And now the crowning function, the Magnum Opus of the mystery, must take place in the Sheol of Dappah; a long procession filed from the mountain temples to the charnel-house of the open plain; the night was dark, the moon had vanished in dismay, black clouds scudded across the heavens, a feverish rain fell slowly at intervals, and the ground was dimly lighted by the phosphorescence of the general putrefaction.
Biding my opportunity, and waiting till my father was safely out of the way, on a visit to Greenock, where some business transaction would oblige him to remain for some days, I climbed out of my bedroom window, when I deemed the rest of the household to be sound asleep, scudded swiftly across the fields, and, making short work of the lofty wall that formed the southernmost boundary of the Rownam estates, quickly made my way to the avenue.
"We'd much rather not, thank you," said Ambrose with a slight shudder, and in another second he and David had unlatched the door, scudded down the garden like two frightened rabbits, and joined their father. At the Vicarage, all this while, their return had been eagerly looked for by Pennie and Nancy.
They had now proceeded some way, when a winding in the road brought suddenly before them the object of their pursuit, as, seen by the light of the earliest stars, it scudded rapidly down the stream.

On approaching, I saw no sign of such disturbances, and presently a Partridge came running at me through the trees, with ruff and tail expanded, bill wide open, and hissing like a Goose, then turned suddenly, and with ruff and tail furled, but with no pretence of lameness, scudded off through the woods in a circle, then at me again fiercely, approaching within two yards, and spreading all her furbelows, to intimidate, as before, then, taking in sail, went off again, always at the same rate of speed, yelping like an angry squirrel, squealing like a pig, occasionally clucking like a hen, and, in general, so filling the woods with bustle and disturbance that there seemed no room for anything else.
Away I scudded, my sides shaking with mirth, leaving the broken jar and the scattered fruits to tell their own tale, and wondering with what stories of midnight alarms the valiant husband and his devoted spouse would amuse their family in the morning. I was glad to see Oddity's kind ugly face again in our native shed.
There could be no mistaking his meaning this time: the Master knew he would die in Jerusalem.

The sky grew dark; clouds scudded overhead as the disciples plodded along the dusty road.
Overhead, across a background of faded blue, scudded ragged banks of clouds, the lingering flotsam of the shattered rainstorm of yesterday: and a cavalry cloak afforded but indifferent protection against the wind that blew hard and sharp from the Atlantic. Coming from the genial warmth of Mr.
Asseverations apparently from mademoiselle, and a mention of eight o'clock, followed by remorse from Kitty. "Eight o'clock! And I keep you like this. I am a brute beast! Allez allez vite!"
