And, anyway, he wasn't a tourist. He was here on legitimate business. Claude's sprained ankle was still badly swollen. Madame Joubert was sure he ought not to move about on it at all, begged him to sit in the garden all day and nurse it. But the surgeon at the front had told him that if he once stopped walking, he would have to go to the hospital.
As usual she was very loquacious, scarcely allowing him a word, and ringing changes on her own and Eloise's sprained ankle, until he began to fear he should have no chance to broach the object of his visit without seeming to drag it in. The chance came on the return of the Crompton carriage, with the Colonel sitting stiff and straight and Amy drooping under her veil beside him.
It must be Billy then. Billy was the one! Well, dash him! If he couldn't go one better than Billy he would see! Anyhow Billy didn't have a sprained ankle, and a place in the family! A girl like that was worth a few days' invalidism. His ankle didn't hurt much since the minister had dressed it again. He believed he could get up and walk if he liked, but he did not mean to.
They gave the names of twenty tribes or nations, through whose territories La Salle had already passed from his settlement, which he called St. Louis. On the 17th, one of the horses fell, and sprained his shoulder, so that he had to be left behind. For several days the journey was somewhat monotonous. They made about twenty or twenty-five miles a day.
He was still in lodgings, having refused to turn Grizel out of her house, though she had offered to let it to him.

The broken end of a branch had driven right through my cheek, damaging my cheek and teeth and gums, and left a splinter of itself stuck, like an explorer's fartherest-point flag, in the upper maxillary. That and a sprained wrist were all my damage. But I bled as though I had been chopped to pieces, and it seemed to me that my face had been driven in.
Reinecourt; only I wish you had not sprained your ankle doing it." "I don't regret it. But you are under an obligation to me, are you not?" "Certainly." "Then I mean to have a return for what you owe me. I want you to come and see me every day until I get well." Rose blushed vividly. "Oh, I don't know. You exact too much!" "Not a whit.
"You'll write and tell me everything that's in your old head, won't you?" Luke felt that he ought not to write. Mabel would not like it. It would be wrong. "Thanks," he said, "we so seldom have any postage stamps in the house. And I've lost my Onoto pen, and I sprained my wrist falling off my bicycle." "Oh, do write, Lukie dear." She held out her hand to him.
'Come, there, there, you young colt, you'll kill yourself! said Ovsyanikov soothingly to him, and an instant later he flew over the precipice together with the racing droshky, the boy who was sitting behind, and the horse. Fortunately, the bottom of the ravine was covered with heaps of sand. No one was injured; only the horse sprained a leg.
But when accidents call up her reserves, you see mountain heights where mists were she is actually glorified. Her friend I do believe a friend the Mr. Woodseer you are to remember meeting somewhere a sprained ankle has a dozen similes ready for what she is when pain or happiness vivify her. Or, it may be, tender charity.
