On her stern, I saw in faded sprawly letters, that had been black: "ANDREW BEDIENT "Of somewhere, I couldn't make out. So I took that for my name. It fitted 'Handy' and the little boy's idea of bigness and actuality, because I had seen it in print.... I never saw the old schooner again. I don't know the port in which she lay at the time; nor the port where my mother died.
"You're headin' for the Diamond Dot, ain't ya?" sez he. "This is a corner o' the Diamond Dot range," sez I, lollin' back an' puffin' slow an' comfortable at my pipe. "The pony corral stands at the mouth of a little canon, don't it?" "Yes," sez I. "An' the cook house is to the right of it?" "Yes," sez I. "An' the ranch house is kind o' sprawly with "
"All right, Marcia," Horace said gently. Her eyes closed again and Horace crossing over kissed her forehead stood there for a moment with a look of tender pity. Then he left the room. All that night the sprawly writing on the pages, the constant mistakes in spelling and grammar, and the weird punctuation danced before his eyes.
Now be a good boy, and don't shower any more water on the baby elephants." So Keedah promised that he wouldn't, and Umboo clung as tightly as he could, with his sprawly legs, to his mother's broad back as she swam across the river. The water was wide, at this part of the jungle, but elephants are good swimmers.
"The next one that came and never a word from him made me sure so, I thought to myself, I'll make certain, and I opened the bag myself with my key for a few mornings I came down early before him on purpose and soon I sees another gold crown and great, sprawly writin'. The kettle was singing. It took me no time to get the gum unstuck, and well there! My dear, you never did! I blush to think of it.
Columns of "To Let, Furnished or Unfurnished" ads filed, advanced, and retreated before my dizzy eyes. My time after office hours was spent in climbing dim stairways, interviewing unenthusiastic females in kimonos, and peering into ugly bedrooms papered with sprawly and impossible patterns and filled with the odors of dead-and-gone dinners.
Allah send him blessings abundant!" and as they did so each fingered his amulets, little scraps of parchment whereon verses from the Korân were written in sprawly Arabic. At that moment, too, I noticed, for the first time, that right opposite us was the grinning, evil face of the black giant, Kouaga, the man who had so foully betrayed us. We exchanged glances, and he laughed at us in triumph.
Not long ago I came across a tiny pamphlet in which I used to feel more honest pride than in any edition of "The Gates Ajar" which it has ever been my fortune to handle. It is a sickly yellow thing, covered with a coarse design of some kind, in which the wings of a particularly sprawly angel predominate.
Most children would have stirred them up with a stick; Buddy let them alone so that he could see what they were doing all by themselves. The ants led him to a tiny hole with a finely pulverized rim just at the edge of a sprawly cactus. This last Buddy carefully avoided, for even at four years old he had long ago learned the sting of cactus thorns.
To my surprise, he seemed at once to be principally if not solely interested in Drummle. "Pip," said he, putting his large hand on my shoulder and moving me to the window, "I don't know one from the other. Who's the Spider?" "The spider?" said I. "The blotchy, sprawly, sulky fellow."
