If Miller and his like went forth seeking the essentials of the faith, they would find them instead of being amazed with foolish tricks of hand." "Essentials such as what?" interrupted Harris, with snappy suddenness.

So he fared serenely on his way, and Dupont gave him never another thought. Returning, Lanyard was favoured with even less attention; an error in judgment which enabled him to remark that Dupont was in an ugly temper, sullen and snappy, it might be because of a disappointment of some sort, possibly in consequence of the liberal potations indicated by the tall stack of little saucers at his elbow.
"Bring out your old dog." When I came back from roping and blindfolding the twisted dynamite I was engaged in "gentling," I found that Brower was saddling the mournful creature with my saddle. My expostulation found him very snappy and very arbitrary. His opium-irritated nerves were beginning to react. I realized that he was not far short of explosive obstinacy.
Peter answered pretty snappy: "'Cause there's only two or three jobs that a long-haired image like him could hold down," he says. "I'd call him a musician if he could play 'Bedelia' on a jews'-harp; but he can't, so's he's got to be a poet." And a poet he was for the next week or so.

On the last day of your service, you manage to fall in within the time-limit and dress the line perfectly. I congratulate you."
Not a hard downpour, but a drifting "Scotch mist" that settled the snowdrifts and finally left them saturated with water. Then back came the frost sharp, snappy and robust. The air cleared like magic. The sun shone out of a perfectly clear sky. Just to put one's head out of the door make the blood tingle.
Her smooth, full, well-rounded face with its dark olive skin and just a faint trace of colour on either cheek, her snappy hazel eyes whose fire was heightened by the penciling of the eyebrows, all were a marvel of the dexterity of her artificial beautifier. And yet in spite of all there was an air of unextinguishable coarseness about her which it was difficult to describe, but easy to feel.
