"Judging by my footsteps I must be a pigeon-toed blighter," soliloquised Wilmshurst, as he noted the turned-in prints in the soft ground. "I must look out to that, or I'll give the show away." On and on he went, making his way from one point of cover to another, yet without seeing or hearing the faintest sign of the German patrols.
I do not say that Casey soliloquised in this manner while he was sweating there in the mud under hot midday. He did think that now he would no doubt miss the night train to Los Angeles, and that he would not, after all, be purchasing glad raiment and a luxurious car on the morrow. He regretted that, but he did not see how he could help it.
She would rather shoot herself than cry before this patronising Englishman, but it was almost past endurance to play second fiddle all the afternoon, be snubbed on the way home, and look forward to an evening spent in propitiating two nervous old ladies! "I don't get any bou-quets in this play!" soliloquised Cornelia, sadly.
"So that was it," she soliloquised. "Poor girl, she isn't happy, I am afraid. I wish we could be friends. Mab and I would soon manage to get her into a more cheerful frame of mind. If she would only join the Mission, she was the unintentional means of forming, she would find a great deal more satisfaction in her life.
"Ah, my captain!" soliloquised the coast-guard, as he arranged his cloak around him to the best advantage, "you are a very cunning man, but you have too much faith in people who are always asleep; and devil take me! if I don't believe that you are interested in my sleeping most soundly on this particular night. Well, quien sabe? we shall see."
The embarrassment that had left her seemed to have passed into Harry, who felt the greatest relief when a flutter of skirts and general rising betokened that the ladies were about to retire. But the little incident had forced resolution on Dutton's vacillating mind. "That settles it," he soliloquised. "She is far too nice to be deceived.
"Dash it all!" he soliloquised. "I can't enlighten old Rupert just now. Revelations must come later if, as he remarked, we do come out of this business alive." About four o'clock in the afternoon the irritating rifle fire ceased.
"It's wonderful that I should have found her at last and won her love," he soliloquised. "We must be Fortune's children she and I." The minutes ticked away and still they were silent. Then, of a sudden, with infinite tenderness in his voice, Johnson asked: "What is your name, Girl your real name?"
The shadows of the tall trees dappled the surface of the water, as the stream rolled silently on. The sun was far down, and the spire of El Paso gleamed like a golden star under the parting kiss of his beams. Our eyes wandered, and rested upon the glittering vane. "The church!" half soliloquised my companion; "I hardly know what it is like, it is so long since I saw it." "How long?"
A bright flash and sharp report followed the challenge, and a ball whistled through the thicket. "Ay, fire away," soliloquised Quentin. "Ye seldom hit when ye can see. It's no' likely ye'll dae muckle better i' the dark." The dog, however, having discovered the track of the hidden men, rushed up the bank towards them.
