Tarzan of the Apes, tensing his mighty muscles, strained at the bonds that pinioned him; but they had been re-enforced many times at the instigation of the Russian, so that not even the ape-man's giant brawn could budge them.

He came to me asking my aid. I must give it to him, to the best of my ability." Hugh Gordon straightened up and threw back his head. It seemed to his companion almost as if his body grew suddenly larger in the tensing of his purpose and his will. "And I must tell you, Dr. Annister," he exclaimed, his eyes flashing and his face determined, "that I shall succeed in spite of you both.
Arcot grabbed at his ray pistol, but one of the guards jumped him before he had a chance to draw it.

His silence was more terrible than a snarl; yet she stretched out her hand and made another step.

It was inserted there by my particular friend Queequeg, whose duty it was, as harpooneer, to descend upon the monster's back for the special purpose referred to. But in very many cases, circumstances require that the harpooneer shall remain on the whale till the whole tensing or stripping operation is concluded.
He felt that a blow was coming and nerved himself against the shock of it. But the preparation was merely like tensing one's muscles against a fall. When the shock came, it stunned him. "Vance, I've decided to adopt Terence!" His fingertips sank into his cheek, bruising the flesh. What would become of his six days of work? What would become of his cunning and his forethought?
He came to an abrupt halt, his eyes on Farwell, every muscle tensing. For an instant he resembled a young tiger about to spring. "Oh, Sandy," cried his sister, "what a mess! For goodness sake don't come up here with those muddy moccasins." "Just as you say," drawled young McCrae. "I thought you might want me. Anything I can do for you, sis?
