Somers, in the greatest bustle and confusion, called every servant in the house about her, sent them different ways for all the remedies she had ever heard of for a sprain; then was sure Emilie's skull was fractured asked fifty times in five minutes whether she did not feel a certain sickness in her stomach, which was the infallible sign of "something wrong" insisted upon her smelling at salts, vinegar, and various essences; and made her swallow, or at least taste, every variety of drops and cordials.
Private Copper rose up and whispered: "If you open your head, I'll bash it." There was no suggestion of sprain in the flung-back left boot. "Now walk in front of me, both arms perpendicularly elevated. I'm only a third-class shot, so, if you don't object, I'll rest the muzzle of my rifle lightly but firmly on your collar-button coverin' the serviceable vertebree.
I shall be quite comfortable directly, really. I can get to my easy-chair in the sitting-room now I have rested a little." Marco helped her to her feet, and her sharp, involuntary exclamation of pain made him wince internally. Perhaps it was a worse sprain than she knew. The house was of the early-Victorian London order.
He stepped back, quite surprised, and then she said to him, in a low but very earnest voice: "I reckon dat dat ar sprain ankle was nuffin but a acciden'; but you look out, sah, you look out! Hab you got dem little shoes handy?" "Oh, yes," said Lawrence. "I have them in my trunk." "Keep 'em whar you kin put your han' on 'em," said Aunt Patsy, impressively. "You may want 'em yit. You min' my wuds."
Well, what with your sprain and my rheumatics I think I can manage it." "Look here, Prue. Are you sure that long brooding over our troubles up in the garret hasn't turned your brain?" "My brain is all right. Now leave me, minion. There is that which I would do." Murray grinned and went. I wrote a letter, took it down to the office, and mailed it. For a week there was nothing more to do.
It was in trying to recover himself when he fell that he got the sprain. You've heard how he came by the other mishap?" "Yes, it was gallopin' down Ludgate Hill, wasn't it?" "Ay; the engine went over a barrow, and the jolt threw him off, and before he got up it was on him. By good fortune it did not go over him; it only bruised his back; but it's worse than we thought it would be, I fear."
I saw your pony at the stable, and that you had bound up his leg, showing a sprain. But I was afraid that something more serious had been the matter. You don't know how relieved I was to see your horse; and Reddy, too. The poor fellow has been in a sweat with fear ever since the stampede broke out," was the hearty way the rancher greeted Frank as he came bustling in.
The poor professor was in great pain from his ankle, but Jack, after as able an examination as he could give the injured member, was unable to find that it was anything more than a severe sprain. It did not take the professor long to become acquainted with what had happened within the last fifteen minutes, and, in his anxiety over the outcome of their situation, his pain was almost forgotten.
It was owing to my carelessness that you hurt yourself, and it was only your generosity which made light of it. Father says it is a serious thing for a soldier to sprain his ankle, for it is never so strong again, and may fail him at a critical moment. I know quite well how much harm I have done you." "Do you, Peggy?
Mill, will come with me to the 'phone, when you're in his room I mean, when you're in yours we may get on to El Portal." Angela was still laughing to herself, when word was brought by a chambermaid that Kate had telephoned from El Portal. It was not, however, a regular sprain. She was in bandages, but better; and it was now settled that, without fail, she was to meet Mrs. May at Wawona to-morrow.
