He cowered down with a spring, as I can fancy a man ducking under a round-shot, and glanced speechlessly, and still in his attitude of recoil, upon the speaker. 'It's only me, Master Stanley your poor old Tamar. Don't be afraid, dear. 'I'm not afraid woman. Tamar to be sure why, of course, I know you; but what the devil brings you here? he said.
She had just finished this arrangement when a noise in the room below warned her of Mrs Greenways' approach, and running downstairs she found her seated breathless in the high-backed chair. One foot was stretched out appealingly in front of her, and she was so fatigued that at first she could only nod speechlessly at Lilac. "I'm fairly spent," she said at last, "with that terr'ble hill.
Algy, moreover, was a kitchen magician in the art of transforming culinary commonplaces into viands of toothsome delight. Elsa became speechlessly busy. Despite her wishes in the matter, Beth could hear the men talking beyond. "So them convicts has hiked over this way already," said the voice of Gettysburg distinctly.
A woman dressed in black, and thickly veiled, was standing facing him under the lamp. He gazed at her speechlessly for a second or two, then passed his hand across his eyes. "Great heavens!" he said slowly, at last. She made a quick movement of the hands that was like a gesture of shrinking. "You don't know me?" she asked, in a voice so low as to be barely audible.
Would ye mind takin' a letter from me to Rosey, and bringin' back an answer?" Renshaw stared speechlessly at this absurd realization of his wish of a moment before. "I don't think I understand you," he stammered. "P'r'aps not," returned Nott, with great gravity. "But that's not so much matter to you ez your time and expenses."
He stared speechlessly and full of misery at Don, who let his eyes rest wildly on Jem's for a time before dropping his head upon his chest, and sitting motionless. All through the rest of that hour, and hour after hour, till towards evening, did the wretched prisoners sit in despair and misery without food or water; and the sounds of merriment and feasting came loudly to where they were.
Suddenly the gray sedan lifted again, to a height of fifty feet above the tallest building. It shot forward, hesitated, and came down softly on a deserted side-road in Central Park. His mind felt as if it were going to split. Dan and Ellen stared at him speechlessly. You can't survive alone! No power is enough by itself! They'll get you! You are your own death-sentence!
He gazed speechlessly into her eyes, which rested on him always with angelic compassion and tenderness, but with no more look of human wifely thought than if he and she were kneeling side by side before God's white throne. Sometimes he dared not touch even so much as the hand on which his own wedding-ring rested.
She was allowed to sit by the sick man's side sometimes whilst the doctor took a promenade or ate a meal in the saloon, but apart from that, the usual exercise of her duties was not required from her. She was forced to admit that there was something mysterious about the little stateroom, the suffering man, and the doctor who watched him speechlessly night and day.
Rudolf gazed speechlessly at the woman and she at him. How beautiful, how bewitchingly beautiful she was in her dumb misery as slowly, unconsciously, she folded her hands together and pressed them against her bosom, to stifle by force the tempest of her tears! Rudolf forgot his part, and, deeply moved, exclaimed, "My God!" Now, for the first time, he really understood everything.
