With the rumble of his machinery about him, and fresh matter arriving and flying into the printing-press, it must be like being in the very furnace-hissing of Events: an Olympian Council held in Vulcan's smithy. Consider the bringing to the Jove there news of such magnitude as to stupefy him! He, too, who had admonished her rather sneeringly for staleness in her information.
I have even this day entered the city, and it is to thee I offer the first shave, O tangle of glory! At these words Shagpat darkened, saying gruffly, 'Thy jest is offensive, and it is unseasonable for staleness and lack of holiness. But Shibli Bagarag cried, 'No jest, O purveyor to the outward of us! but a very excellent earnest.
And these three days out of training meant a lot to Gordon and others, who would have to play not only in the Two Cock, but most probably in the Three Cock as well.

The week after the Thirds was regarded as a fairly slack time before the strenuous week that culminated in the Two Cock.
And in the silence Trefethan's voice fell like a funeral bell: "It would have been better had I stayed. Look at me." We saw his grizzled mustache, the bald spot on his head, the puff-sacks under his eyes, the sagging cheeks, the heavy dewlap, the general tiredness and staleness and fatness, all the collapse and ruin of a man who had once been strong but who had lived too easily and too well.

At dusk the poor fellow would emerge, contrite and terrified, and prostrate himself at the gate of the palace.
