In a series of gigantic leaps, each longer than the last, it thundered downwards, at each jump starting fresh tons of the loose shale which covered the bank. A cloud of dust rose like smoke, and hid all below. Then from out the cloud came squeals and shrieks. In their excitement, Ken and Roy actually forgot to send fresh stones to follow the first. There was no need.
Sometimes you would hear only a gentle persuasive cooing, or a quiet confidential chattering, then that long, loud call, taken up by first one, then another, as they sat about upon the naked limbs, anon, a sort of wild, rollicking laughter, intermingled with various cries, yelps, and squeals, as if some incident had excited their mirth and ridicule.
He said himself, in "Wild Wales," after expressing his relief that a boy and dog had not seen a weazel that ran across his path: "I hate to see poor wild animals persecuted and murdered, lose my appetite for dinner at hearing the screams of a hare pursued by greyhounds, and am silly enough to feel disgust and horror at the squeals of a rat in the fangs of a terrier, which one of the sporting tribe once told me were the sweetest sounds in 'natur."
You may come, too, sir, if you wish," addressing my persistent companion, who apparently had decided to spend the rest of his natural life in my presence. Zura led us toward the rear of the house. As we approached a closed room there came to us sounds of splashing water and happy squeals. She slid open the paper doors. Before us were two big tubs full of small children.
"Lud! we've been trying to wake thee this hour past; but 'twas sleep sleep!" "I'll get up, I tell you." "Thought thee'd ha' slept through the bed and right through to the floor," said the chambermaid by the door, tittering. "Unless you pack and go, I'll step out amongst you all!" Whereat they fled with mock squeals, calling out that the very thought made them blush: and left me to dress.
O storm and cloud of material appearances, were there not enough of you already, that you must add to your number these also? Bran! Bran! Could you find no other day in the year but this, whereon to present my ears with the squeals of one two three nine blind puppies?
"I don't see how you can say they've no evidence against you. Suppose Crotin squeals?" "He ain't stopped squealing yet," said the colonel philosophically, "but I don't see what difference it makes. Pinto, you haven't got the hang of my methods, and I doubt if you ever will. You're a clever, useful fellow, but if you were allowed to run the gang, you'd have it in gaol in a month.
"But, I must say, I don't like this way of doing things." "No more do I," growled another of the band. "It's putting a fellow's head under the axe," came from Number Four. "Oh, don't get scared!" came from another. "I know Luffer he's O.K." "Everybody is O.K. until he gets in a tight corner and squeals," grumbled Number Four.
He stood among the trees like a wild creature, more beast than man, and the lank, busy pigs burrowed around him, running to and fro, with little squeals. He ceased his song when I approached and looked up timidly. I spoke to him but he made no answer, I offered a cigarette but he shook his head. I went my way, and at first the road was not quite solitary. Two men passed me on donkeys.
That's how I come to get the benefit of all this mushy conversation that begins to drift out from the next room. First off I couldn't make out whether it was some one havin' a tooth plugged, or if it was a case of a mouse bein' loose at a tea party. Course, the squeals and giggles I could place as comin' from Miss Marjorie Ellins. Maybe you remember about Mr.
