I wrapped a blanket round my head and hid behind a sage bush. The wind, carrying the sand, made a strange hollow roar. All was enveloped in a weird yellow opacity. The sand seeped through the sage bush and swept by with a soft, rustling sound, not unlike the wind in the rye. From time to time I raised a corner of my blanket and peeped out. Where my feet had stretched was an enormous mound of sand.
Grace observed that it seeped much more rapidly than when the guide had performed a similar operation. "Buckets!" demanded Hippy. They were lowered, and, in a few moments, half a dozen of them were filled and handed up to the outstretched hands waiting to receive them. "This is splendid! I wish Mr. Lang were here. Too bad," said Grace.
But the waters of placidly flowing Judaism, paralleling it, have always seeped through, and the fact that more than half of all Christianity prays to a Jewess, and that both Jesus and Paul were Jews, should not be forgotten. The blood of all the martyrs, rebels and revolters who have attempted to turn the current of this river has tinted its waters.
Her husband busied himself stemming the stream of water that seeped beneath the door with empty grain or coffee bags, snatched from the top of a cupboard where they were stored, evidently for the very purpose to which they were now being put. Gwynne stood coatless in the centre of the kitchen, rolling down his white shirt-sleeves.
The Ridge seeped in one's very existence. You could see it as clearly in imagination as in reality, with its horizon under shell-bursts and the slope with its maze of burrows and its battered trenches.
Jan could see it plainly now, as Ted had seen it before from his boat, which was still floating along, as not so much water had leaked in as had seeped into his sister's. "Oh, isn't it a big one!" cried Jan. "It's a big turtle." "It surely is!" assented Ted. "He could bite hard if he got hold of you." "Is he biting my rope?" Janet asked. "No, it's round one of his front legs," replied Ted.
He knew the mission of the Onondaga to be a perilous one, but he did not doubt his success. The cold drizzle fell on the shelter of brush and saplings, and some of it seeped through. Now and then a drop found its way down his neck, and it felt like ice. Physically he was very miserable, and it began to depress his spirit. He hoped that Tayoga would not be long in obtaining the buffalo robe.
Try as she would, she could not find it in her heart at such a time to destroy his hope, or her own. The hope which she would not acknowledge, and the love which she strove to conceal from him seeped up between the words of her letter like water through grains of sand.
And, as I waited, her voice seeped thinly through the boarding. "I don't believe it." Her voice came quietly, almost without intonation. "Tom Breighton wouldn't be his friend then. They're both fine and straight and " "They are, are they?" he jeered. "Ye've learned to tell such things out here in th' country, I suppose " "There are things," she retorted, "I've learned."
And while I went on to tell about the pool of liquids, which for some unknown reason had not seeped into the soil since forming there, the Englishman proceeded to dig vigorously into the heap I had mentioned. The rest of us watched him thoughtfully. We remembered that Jerome's digging had been done after Queen's disappearance.
