When the real thing happened the "calf round-up" and thirty riders in white felt hats, chaps, spurs a-jingle, and handkerchief ends flying out in the wind, lined up of a morning for orders, the blood of me went a-jump, and my nerves were all tingly with the pure joy of being alive and atop a horse as eager as hounds in the leash and with the wind of the plains in my face and the grass-land lying all around, yelling come on, and the meadowlarks singing fit to split their throats.
It was impossible not to be cheerful, translated from the St. Luke into such a place, trotting along in the peculiar dry air that made one all tingly. The world seemed suddenly quite good, the simplest, easiest of objects to tackle. All one had to do was not to let it weigh on one, to laugh rather than cry.
It was a little as though something heavy dropped from my throat down to my toes, through me, leaving me all empty, with cold, tingly things rushing up again to my head. They were still rushing as we flew around the rock, and I kept saying: "It can't be Greg.... It can't be...." But it was. He was lying doubled up, just below the high place where Jerry had told him to keep watch.
Then Roy, who was among them, kneeled down and put his arm out toward Tom. "Don't touch my hand," said Tom, faintly. "It isn't that I don't want to shake hands with you," he added. "I wanted to do that when I met you before supper. Only my hands feel funny tingly, kind of and they hurt. "Any of my own patrol here?" he asked after a moment. "Yes, Connie Bennett's here and Will Bronson."
"Wine makes me feel all tingly, doesn't it you?" chattered Miss Masters gaily. "Yes," answered Merlin absently; and then, after a long and pregnant pause: "Miss Masters Olive I want to say something to you if you'll listen to me." But her "Yes, Merlin," came without a sign or flicker of interior disturbance. Merlin swallowed a stray bit of air that he found in his mouth.
While that little feller was making that charge you could feel the air getting tingly, like it does before a rain storm. Some fellers started to clap their hands like at a political rally and to say, "Go it, Billy!" "That's right, Harden!" Which I found out later Billy Harden was in the state legislature, and quite a speaker, and knowed it.
"We always know," answered the rat. "The tips of our tails get that tingly feeling like when your foot's asleep. This morning, at six o'clock, while I was getting breakfast, my tail suddenly began to tingle. At first I thought it was my rheumatism coming back.
