I felt sort of drawed to him from the way he handled his licker; took it straight and runnin' over; then sopped his hands on the bar and smelled of his fingers. He seemed to just soak it up both ways reg'lar human blotter. "'You lap it up like a man, says I, 'like a cowman full growed ever been West? "'Nope, says he, 'born here.
To extract them, we had the strong thorns, three or four inches long, of the wild acacia; and on these the little brown morsels were carried to the avid mouths and eaten with a bit of bread sopped in the sauce and then the shell was subjected to a vigorous sucking, that not a drop of the sauce lingering within it should be lost. To the snails succeeded another dish essentially Provençal, carde.
But Cerberus sopped himself in the pie, and I saw that I must placate him if I were to get a share of it. So I sighed to myself and accepted his work-morality. "Of course I want work," I bluffed. "Don't believe it," he snorted. "Try me," I answered, warming to the bluff. "All right," he said. You know where that burned building is, and I'll put you to work tossing bricks."
His sleeves and the back of his shirt were sopped, his trousers stuck to his legs, his head was dripping. "What's the use of standing there, with your legs apart, little lad?" said the old woman. "Come, sit down." Holding his legs wide apart, Yegorushka went up to the table and sat down on a bench near somebody's head.
My sopped and dripping wings had made me heavier than I thought, but presently I was in lighter cloud, and soon had cleared the first layer. There was a second opal-coloured and fleecy at a great height above my head, a white unbroken ceiling above, and a dark unbroken floor below, with the monoplane labouring upwards upon a vast spiral between them. It is deadly lonely in these cloud-spaces.
The prisoner the same prisoner of whom we before spoke is there. Despair is in his looks, and his temples are still bound with those cloths, which seemed now for many days to have been sopped in blood, which has become encrusted in their folds. He still lives, apparently incapable of movement.
"Find what?" said he, feeling all sopped and dazed. "The box the casket! It could never perish. It was of sheet-iron. Look, look, my friend! Your eyes are younger than mine a box, a foot long, of hard iron!" "I am sitting upon something hard," said George. He sprang to his feet and took the lanthorn. "Bones," said he, peering down. "Some old mastodon, I expect. Is this your treasure?"
Agatha, who came last but one, gave him threepence. "You have a noble 'art and an expressive hi, Miss," he said, apparently much moved. "Blessings on both! Blessings on both!" He went back for Jane, who slipped on the wet grass and fell. He had to put forth his strength as he helped her to rise. "Hope you ain't sopped up much of the rainfall, Miss," he said.
However, it happened; she carefully wiped it up, and the two chemists, paying no more attention to her than if she had been a cat, went on speaking of the explosive. It was the explosive; their talk told her that before she had finished the wiping. "The formula I would give for it?" Van de Greutz was saying; as she sopped up the last drops, he gave the formula.
After the last potato peeling, and the last crumb of corn bread had been "sopped" in the bacon gravy and eaten, we whittled some tobacco off a plug, filled our pipes and leaned up against the fence and smoked the most enjoyable smoke that ever was smoked.
