The superseded interpreter, who was standing near, seemingly took no notice, immediately traduced this literally to the unhappy men. A murmur arose amongst them. "Que el padre ya! Somos en Capilla entonces poco tiempo, poco tiempo!"
"'Im too?" asked Pedro, indicating Morgan Pell who stood, as though made of stone, in one corner. "Poco tiempo!" the bandit said. "Debommultalo!" his henchman replied. "Si," Lopez smiled. And Pedro got the invalid and the lanky Hardy through the door, as a woman might have swept two geese from her path.
"Gracias a Dios!" he said, his wild eyes brightening with a gleam of intelligence, as Mr Jellaby and Bill Bates, having unloosed him from the ropes by which he was seized up to the rigging, brought him across the deck to the doctor, who at once put a small quantity of brandy between his lips. "Habran llegado a tiempo." "What is that, eh?"
What is the consequence? at once its visible connexion with the Latin 'tempus, with the Spanish 'tiempo, with the Italian 'tempo, with its own 'temporel' and 'temporaire, is broken, and for many effaced. Or note the result from another point of view. Here are 'poids' a weight, 'poix' pitch, 'pois' peas.
At the southern end of Columbia Avenue a magnificent building formed the gateway to a rich collection of Italian art ware and industries. The handsome Spanish Pavilion was succeeded by typically Persian exhibits consisting prominently of carpets, curtains, silk needlework, and tapestries. Mexico, the land of manana and poco tiempo was represented by costly decorations and art feather-work.
DOÑA MATILDE. Si usted hubiera tenido que viajar en posta tres o cuatro días con sus noches ... como a otros les ha sucedido ... para poder llegar a tiempo de arrancar a sus queridas del altar en que un padre injusto las iba a inmolar ... ya era otra cosa ... y aun cierto desorden en la toilette, hubiera sido entonces de rigor; pero como usted viene sólo de su casa....
I asked him what he meant by sending such an extraordinary message, at the same time telling Patsey to repeat it. Hal heard it, and burst into a laugh, declaring that he told Patsey to say he would be with me "poko tiempo," in a little while which, as Patsey did not understand Spanish, he had interpreted into "kape yer timper."
"We go slow," Luis explained nervously because of the look in the black, unreadable eyes of this straight, slim Indian girl who was so beautiful and so silent. "They go muy fas', Ramon an' Beel. Poco tiempo sure, we fin' dem little soon." Annie-Many-Ponies did not betray by so much as a quiver of an eyelash that Luis had mentioned Bill unwittingly.
The woods are infested with poisonous snakes, and abound in a sort of large toad or frog which crawls into the city after rains. The tigers "often make incursions into the street," as at Nombre de Dios, to carry off children and domestic animals. There was good fishing in the bay, and the land was fertile "beyond wonder," so that the cost of living there, in the tiempo muerto, was very small.
That his services as admiral had never been called into requirement hurt his pride and patriotism. At every call he would inquire, gravely and expectantly, for despatches. The operator would pretend to make a search, and then reply: "Not yet, it seems, Senor el Almirante poco tiempo!"
