Whatever he did apply, however, had a quieting influence, and presently, after tossing from side to side convulsively, Captain Alphonse closed his great staring eyes and began to snore stertorously. "Heaven be praised!" cried Colonel Vereker. "He's sleeping again, now!" "Faith, an' a good job, too, for him, poor crayture," said Garry.
Even as he looked at him in scornful hate, the cart gave a lurch and Leonard fell forward. Instinctively Harold swept an arm round him and held him up. As he did so the unconsciousness of arrested sleep came; Leonard's chin sank on his breast and he breathed stertorously. As he drove on, Harold's thoughts circled in a tumult.
He looked at me with distended eyes, while Jack shouted out in his boisterous voice, that had no doubt often echoed over the plain: 'Come on, Wyoming Ed, and never mind him. He must follow. Then he gave a war whoop. The Major did not turn round, but continued to stare at me, breathing stertorously like a person with apoplexy.
And Herr Krauss tumbled down upon his knees and sobbed stertorously. The doctor, who was surveying him with frigid amazement, suddenly turned and, seizing Sophy by the arm, said: "You can do no good here now; this is no place for you."

The wounded man, breathing stertorously, still cumbered the upper steps. Marcadel rested one hand on him. Claude thrust in his head and listened. He could hear, above the thick breathing of the Savoyard, the stir of men muttering and moving in the darkness below; and now the stealthy shuffle of feet, and again the faint clang of a weapon against the wall.

Esquires ought never to want to sleep," said Denis; and then quickly, "nor grooms nor hostlers neither. Here, look at these two red-faced pigs." He pointed on to the two men who had taken charge of and rubbed down their chargers upon their arrival, and who were now lying in a heap of straw, eyes shut, mouth open, and with their heavy faces looking swollen and red, breathing stertorously.
His head had slipped from the folded newspaper, and the straggling unkempt hair was matted with the foxtails and burrs of the dry grass on which it lay. He was not a pretty sight.
