They aren't all maniacs about everything made in France, thank heaven! Rostand! Ass! I'm not playing parts with a clothespin on the end of my nose!" And again he mimicked the departed visitor: "'This for my stirrup-cup: you cable Rostand tomorrow. My soul! Does he think I want to play CHICKENS?" Sulphurously, he resumed his pacing of the floor.
The wheezy exhaust coughed on; the belt flapped as the paddle wheel kept on its dead shove of the Marie's keel into the sand. Hogjaw had shouted and run forward. He was staring into the phosphorescent water circling about the bow when Crump raised his cry: "Fire amidships!" Tedge ran down the after-stairs. Sulphurously he began cursing at the trickle of smoke under the motor frame.
"Why do you say that, Bert?" she might ask, with violent self- control. "Nothing, my dear, nothing!" Bert would return to his newspaper, or his razor. "I was just thinking. No matter!" Nancy would stand, eyeing him sulphurously. "But just what do you mean, Bert?" she would pursue. "Do you mean that you don't think I should have gotten the suit?
A few desultory pedestrians went walking hither and yon, leisurely, with no apparent purpose.

To the west a small patch of open sky glowed sulphurously through a smoke pall.
Macmillan seized the reins from the ground, and walking up and down the length of his six-horse team, began to address them singly and in the mass in terms so sulphurously descriptive of their ancestry, their habits, and their physical and psychological characteristics, that when he gave the word in a mighty culminating roar of blasphemous excitation, each of the bemired beasts seemed to be inspired with a special demon, and so exerted itself to the utmost limit of its powers that in a single minute the load stood high and dry on solid ground.
Anyway, what temper he had not left at Laguna he scattered sulphurously on the rocks before he reached the crest of Acoma; and when he had climbed the perilous way, he was too fatigued to go on through the town. The whole episode is typically characteristic of our stupid short-sightedness as a continent to our own advantage.
"I got on at the last corner. She was here then. But if she said she did, she did." It seemed to relieve the conductor to have some one of his own sex to quarrel with. He delivered a stream of admonition somewhat sulphurously phrased, to the general effect that any one whose concern the present affair was not, could, at his option, close his jaw or have his block knocked off.
The business involved in the letter does not concern this narrative save in so far as it called him in peremptory terms away from Alexander and, at that, he fumed sulphurously. He had, for the present, one more evening with her and he meant to make the most of it. If there was in him any power of hypnotism, and he still believed there was, he meant to exert it to the full.
