No one, no true Somali, that is, objected to a prod in the heart with a shovel-headed spear, a thwack in the head with a hammered slug, a sweep at the neck with a big sword but to have a person sawing at your throat with weak and shaking hands is rotten....
But now his unsteady brain made his legs unsteady, and he rolled down the roof and fell with a loud thwack on to an horizontal paling, where he hung a moment in a semicircle; then toppled over and lay silent on the ground, amidst roars of laughter from his boon companions. When they came to pick him up he could not stand; but fell down giggling at each attempt.
At barley break. At purpose in purpose. At the bavine. At nine less. At the bush leap. At blind-man-buff. At crossing. At the fallen bridges. At bo-peep. At bridled nick. At the hardit arsepursy. At the white at butts. At the harrower's nest. At thwack swinge him. At forward hey. At apple, pear, plum. At the fig. At mumgi. At gunshot crack. At the toad. At mustard peel. At cricket. At the gome.
We were nigh a thousand leagues from rescue or help that day! "Mutinied!" shrieks La Chesnaye, with his voice all athrill. "Mutinied? What will my father have to say?" And he clapped his tilted chair to floor with a thwack that might have echoed to the fo'castle. "Shall I lend you a trumpet, La Chesnaye, or or a fife?" asks M. Radisson, very quiet.
The flying fragment was dodged by those who saw it coming, but brought up with a resounding thwack against the head of a colored man in the second row, who stood watching the grand stand with an eager and curious gaze.
It had hit soft ground and didn't double its height that time, but it had still gone higher. It was out of sight for almost a lifelong minute. And then incredibly rotten luck it came down, with an ear-shattering thwack, on the concrete highway again. I had seen it hit, and instantly afterward I saw a crack as wide as a finger open along the entire width of the road.
Bullfrog in the world. Like many men's wives, the good lady served her husband as a steppingstone. I had scrambled out of the coach and was instinctively settling my cravat, when somebody brushed roughly by me, and I heard a smart thwack upon the coachman's ear. "Take that, you villain!" cried a strange, hoarse voice. "You have ruined me, you blackguard! I shall never be the woman I have been!"
One stride a stride taken quick as thought, with the stout hazel stick well raised in the air, just as the figure was stooping lowest. Then Whoosh! Thwack! A stinging blow, given with all the boy's nervous force, as with a bound he threw all his strength into the cut. "Yah!"
Rascals! roared the Baron, turning on his men, and out poured a mud- spring of filthy oaths and threats, which caused Henker Rothhals, who had opened his eyes, to close them again, as if he had already gone to the place of heat. 'Only lend me thy staff, friend, cried Werner. 'Not I! thwack 'em with your own wood, replied the stranger, and fell back a leg.
Down came the cutlass with a sudden thwack, cutting deep into the trunk of a small tree, which trembled under the shock and sent a shower of ripe nuts of a large size down upon the sailor's head.
