Bert, the trouble-seeker, pricked his ears to the muffled sound of blows and sobs, and stepped aside to investigate. "Oh! look what I've found!" he called. They joined him on the edge of a dry ditch and looked down. In the bottom were two men, strays from the fight, grappled together and still fighting.
But when she would have thrown herself on his breast, her pale face and her passionate sobs enraged him. He flung her aside roughly. From that night the man's nature was changed.
"It was so solemn and I was thinking about everybody's going away to-morrow," she said, between her sobs. "Then they sang 'Where friend holds fellowship with friend. Though sundered far' and all that and I couldn't stand it any longer," and the tears still rained down her face. At this Florence's eyes filled up, and she put her arms around Dimple, and they cried together, while it took Mrs.
That cry of terror must proceed from her friend's mouth, and was followed by exclamations of grief from bearded lips and loud sobs. Evil tidings must have reached her host's house, and the woman weeping so impetuously below was probably kind "Babetta." Anxiety drove her from her bed.
Sobs were heard throughout every portion of the hall, and tears poured profusely from every eye. The Fleece Knights on the platform and the burghers in the background were all melted with the same emotion. As for the Emperor himself, he sank almost fainting upon his chair as he concluded his address. An ashy paleness overspread his countenance, and he wept like a child.

They start like a couple of conspirators, speechless. "Oh!" with a wild, piercing cry. "Will he die? And I have just come home to stay, to comfort him, to make him happy. Oh, what shall I do? To be left all alone! Let me go to him." Denise catches her in the fond old arms, where she sobs as if her heart would break. Grandon turns away, then says brokenly, "I will go up to him.
"Oh, you can, you can," she murmured, turning her beautiful eyes on him. Her voice failed her, and she had to struggle with her sobs. "What do you think I can do for you?" he asked, to relieve the suspense. "I shall tell you that later," she replied, and almost burst out laughing. "It will be simple and easy for you, but no one else can satisfy me. We are alone.
Elizabeth bore the news with extreme fortitude; with unexpected tact she took her father by the arm and steered him outside and along the terrace walk where the agonized sobs and moans of her mother could not be heard for what Elizabeth feared in that first great moment of remorse was a torrent of self-accusation from her mother.
And as they went by, there were few in the crowd who did not press forward to shake them by the hand, and not only them, but their parents and kinsfolk who walked behind, till Mrs. Leigh, her stately joy quite broken down at last, could only answer between her sobs, "Go along, good people God a mercy, go along and God send you all such sons!"
