"Ah, indeed; that must be exceedingly awkward for you, Captain," returned Leslie.
I want to gag Happy; he's working his hoodoo on us again." Happy Jack leered up at him, consciously immune for there was no time for strife of a physical nature, and Happy knew it. Everyone was working his fastest. "Hoodoo nothing! I guess maybe yuh can't see that bank uh thunderheads.

"Watch and watch I've stood wi' ye," she said, goin' "watch and watch, but I'm no good to see the lights nor to grip the wheel longer. The sight's gone and the strength, Matt.

MELCHTHAL. And all for me for my mad wilful folly! Blind, did you say? Quite blind and both his eyes? STAUFFACHER. Even so. The fountain of his sight's dried up. He ne'er will see the blessed sunshine more. FURST. Oh, spare his anguish! MELCHTHAL. Never, never more! O the eye's light, of all the gifts of heaven, The dearest, best!
Grenfell straightened himself suddenly. "My sight's not as good as yours, but I seemed to know they must be. Can you make out any Douglas firs in the thicker timber?"
