Simonds, that's certain," and the Major thrummed upon the table as he spoke. "Why, it would take a regiment to do any good, and I have barely fifty men in all. But I am going to send him a supply of guns and ammunition. They must go on the Polly, and you are to give Leavitt strict instructions to see that they are delivered to Davidson as speedily as possible. That is the best I can do."
"She'll not sink yet awhile, sir," said Jack. "Hark, now! don't you hear a bubbling sound right forward, there? Now, to my mind, if we were to get a sail thrummed and brought across her bows, we might carry her into harbour yet." "If you think so, we'll try it, by all means," I answered, feeling no little pride at the prospect of saving the ship.
Three piano duets make up opus 6; and other charming works, songs, piano pieces, and violin solos, kept pouring from a pen whose apparent ease concealed a vast deal of studious labor, until the lucky 13, the opus-number of a bundle of "Water Scenes," brought Nevin the greatest popularity of all, thanks largely to "Narcissus," which has been as much thrummed and whistled as any topical song.
Keeler drew away the curtain from over the toes of the Medium's boots, to show where his feet were; the guitar was thrummed a little. Had the Medium's right arm been free, the thrumming could have been done quite easily with one hand. Afterwards the guitar was elevated above the curtain; the tambourine, which was by Mrs.

If he didn't stop that thing in time from going round and round, then his revolving head would certainly break his neck in a few seconds. Icy drops of anguish flowed from all his pores. "Miska!" he yelled in the extreme of his distress. But Miska did not know what to do. The record kept on revolving and joyously thrummed the Rakoczy March. All the sinews in the Lieutenant's body grew tense.
The harper thrummed with rapid fingers; the violin player flashed his bow back and forth across the strings; the flautist poured his breath in quick puffs of jollity, while Donatello shook the tambourine above his head, and led the merry throng with unweariable steps.
"Pardon me; this is my son you are speaking of." "And this is your Port I'm drinking; so I'll say no more." The squire emptied his glass, and Sir William thrummed on the table.
