"There is the sea, at all events, with the full moon silvering the waves," said Jack, turning from the road, "and here is the road; then that must be the way to Port Mahon. But what comes here? it's a carriage. Why, it's the yellow carriage of that old lady with her diamonds, and her two splashy footmen!"
'Possum himself flew into a thick blackberry-patch and lost consciousness; Mr. Rabbit sailed clear over the blackberry-patch, and landed in a boggy place, which was soft enough, but quite splashy; Mr. 'Coon went straight up into the little tree they had hit, and grabbed some limbs and hung on, while Mr.
Her head swung a little to the west, pointing toward the miniature lighthouse of the Jolliette breakwater, far away there, hardly distinguishable against the land. The dinghy danced a squashy, splashy jig in the wash of the wake; and, turning in my seat, I followed the James Westoll with my eyes.
But Midmore needed two, next morning very early, for a devil's diversion, among wet coppices, called 'cubbing. 'You haven't a bad seat, said Miss Sperrit through the morning-mists. 'But you're worrying him. 'He pulls so, Midmore grunted. 'Let him alone, then. Look out for the branches, she shouted, as they whirled up a splashy ride. Cubs were plentiful.
Walker, standing at the foot of the shaft waiting for the answering signal from above, heard the noise and the rush of Mag's body as it bumped from side to side in its mad descent, and starting back, he was just in time to get clear as the mangled mass of rags and blood and pulpy flesh fell with a loud splashy thud at the bottom, the blood spattering and "jauping" him and the bottomer, and blinding their eyes as it flew all over them.
The Friedrich-Voltaire relation is evidently under sore stress of weather, in those winter-autumn months of 1752, brown leaves, splashy rains and winds moaning outwardly withal. And, alas, the irrepressibly electric Voltaire, still far from having ended, still only just beginning his Anti-Maupertuis discharges, has, in the interim, privately got his DOCTOR AKAKIA ready.
Quatreaux's cabane was situated on the edge of an extensive tract of marsh, lagoon would be a more descriptive word for it, perhaps, a splashy, ditch-divided district, extending along the borders of a lake for miles.
Cow Island is not an island, at least, at this season, though, I believe, in the time of freshets, the marshy Charles floods the meadows all round about it, and extends across its communication with the mainland. The path to it is a very secluded one, threading a wood of pines, and just wide enough to admit the loads of meadow hay which are drawn from the splashy shore of the river.
Even the climax of the piece, the trial scene, I should call, as far as Portia is concerned, rather grand and impressive than strikingly or startlingly effective; and with the exception of that, the whole character is so delicate, so nicely blended, so true, and so free from all exaggeration, that it seems to me hardly fit for a theater, much less one of our immense houses, which require acting almost as splashy and coarse in color and outline as the scene-painting of the stage is obliged to be.
We have seen a few deer tracks, but have not seen any deer. We also saw some jumping trout in a splashy little rapid. Doubtless they came from a little creek, close by, for we never heard of trout being found in the Green River." "We made a motion picture, while dropping our boats down with lines, over the first rapid we considered bad.
