The other men were so pleased at the fancy, that they spat twice as much as before, for the pleasure of making him run about. Mr Chucks, the boatswain, called it "the first lieutenant's perambulating spitting-pan." He observed to me one day, "that really Mr Falcon was such an epicure about his decks, that he was afraid to pudding an anchor on the forecastle."
He spoke kindly to him: "Water swallowed, my boy, yes, that's the dickens when you get into that mess yonder. Wait, we'll be on dry land directly." Boris spat out the water and struggled for breath. Once on shore, he lay down in the grass; he felt a deadly exhaustion and closed his eyes. Moritz sat beside him and looked at him.
Then ther' was others out with the cow herd." "They had a bunch o' cattle?" "Maybe three hundred head, run in from Arizona. I heard that much, but I don't talk their lingo." "What was done with the young lady?" Moore spat vindictively into the sand, digging a hole with his heel. He had talked already more than he intended, but what was the difference?
"The others that was nothing at all! But it was you who spat seven times over into the poor devil's face I was standing in the shop, and saw it." Pelle stared at him, speechless. Was this the truth-loving Morten who stood there lying? "You say you saw me spit at him?" Morten nodded. "Do you want to accept the applause and the honor, and sneak out of the beastliness and the destruction?
"Literate President," he began, as soon as the chair had recognized him, "this is scarcely new business, since it concerns a problem, a most serious problem, which I and some of my colleagues have brought to the attention of this Council many times in the past the problem of Black Literacy!" He spat out the two words as though they were a mouthful of poison.
"Where is she bound?" he asked. "O, we're just looking in at all these miserable islands here," said the officer. "Then we bear up for San Francisco." "O yes, you're from China ways, like us?" pursued Wicks. "Hong Kong," said the officer, and spat over the side. Hong Kong.
His momentary lack of vigilance proved well-nigh his own undoing, also. Crack! spat the Luger again from the window. His hat whirled from his head, but he kept his presence of mind. It was not the first time by many that Yorke had been under fire.
His eyes were fixed searchingly on hers, as though he would read the effect of his words before he replied, and his voice had a curious, rough note, as though with difficulty he quelled the tempest within him. "I have my rights, and you had spat upon me," he said with ferocious softness. She did not blench, but looked him steadily in the eyes.
It began to dawn upon Hosack that Joan had slipped away with Harry Oldershaw from the fact that Palgrave first became restless and irritable, then had a short sharp spat with Barclay about the length of the line on the Western front that was held by the British and finally got up and went into the house and almost immediately prowled out alone for a sulky walk along the beach.
Once he sneaked down the river bank and filled his pipe with dead willow leaves. At the first whiff of the smoke he spat in the direction of the boat and put the finest curse he knew on Corrigan one that began with the first Corrigans born on earth and ended with the Corrigans that shall hear the trumpet of Gabriel blow. He began to hate Corrigan with all his shaking nerves and soul.
