The light breeze flung the Swallow along with those caressing wave-slaps that are the sleepiest of sounds. To sail under that sky, with Madeline leaning on her elbow near at hand, they two separated from the rest of the world by wide waters, was like a brief experience of Paradise.
"You ought to say what are the three sleepiest letters in the alphabet," declared Russ, "'cause there are three letters in bed." "Oh, well, one is enough for a riddle," said Laddie, and I think so myself. One day the children saw Daddy Bunker and Cousin Tom putting on long rubber boots, and taking down heavy fishing-poles and some baskets. "Where are you going?" asked Russ.
It has a bishop, and the rudiments of a cathedral. It has burst into a local and spasmodic life. But when I knew it through Arthur, it was the sleepiest and laziest town alive, with the water rippling through the streets. Old-world farmers, with their strange nasal dialect, used to haunt the streets on market day, like the day on which we first drove through it on our way to Tredennis.
This was rough fare, and I could not say whether the men slept or killed mosquitoes. One thing I know beyond question: I saw the toughest, sleepiest looking lot of men next morning that I had yet seen in my military service. They all seemed to have colds. To add to our discomfort all the rations had been boxed and marked for shipping, and we were without food for breakfast.
Isn't it just the dearest, sleepiest place you ever saw in all your life?" "Is it your first visit here?" asked Miss Lyndesay. "I supposed you knew these villages by heart." "I don't," confessed Hannah.
The keeper of that gate is the sleepiest man between here and London Dan Randall, that's his name knowed en for years, when he was at Casterbridge gate. Between the lameness and the gate 'tis a done job." They now advanced with extreme caution. Nothing was said until, against a shady background of foliage, five white bars were visible, crossing their route a little way ahead.
He excoriated himself for appeasing his guilt with such a morbid thought. Maybe tomorrow a mega-sized typhoon of global warming dimensions would pass over Bangkok and clean the slate of people like himself, obscene drawings of human denizens; but then he was going northeast to the sleepiest of the world's comatose capitals, Vientiane. What could happen to him there?
What's the sleepiest letter of the alphabet?" "Do you know the answer?" Rose wanted to know. "This isn't like the fire riddle, is it?" "No, I know an answer to this," Laddie said. "Can anybody else answer it?"
"Only to appear with more effect; they will be creeping like snakes coming to be scotched; they won't find a man like Edric at the head of the English army now one who always chose the sleepiest and deafest men for sentinels. Ah, well! he is openly with the enemy now; I only hope he will come within swing of my battle-axe tomorrow. "Ah! There they are."
To lighten the recollection of it, I will think of my stroll homeward past Charlecote Park, where I beheld the most stately elms, singly, in clumps, and in groves, scattered all about in the sunniest, shadiest, sleepiest fashion; so that I could not but believe in a lengthened, loitering, drowsy enjoyment which these trees must have in their existence.
