In the making of man, who lives his little day with the utmost difficulty, pain and struggle, and is then extinguished, to be heard of no more? The use of it, my Sergius! point out the use of it! No, there is no man can answer me that! If I could see the Creator, I would ask Him the question personally but He hides Himself behind the great big pendulum He has set swinging tick tock! tick tock!
I rather know how to work than be educated. "Mr. Ash give me a lot of scraps from his garment factory. I made them up in quilts. He give me enough to make three dresses. I needed dresses so bad." They sent it to Little Tock and St. Louis for the county fairs. "I was born at Holly Grove, Arkansas. Alexander was the name my pa went by and that was my maiden name."
When they had been all melted together, we heard a strange noise, hin, hin, hin, hin, his, tick, tock, taack, bredelinbrededack, frr, frr, frr, bou, bou, bou, bou, bou, bou, bou, bou, track, track, trr, trr, trr, trrr, trrrrrr, on, on, on, on, on, on, ououououon, gog, magog, and I do not know what other barbarous words, which the pilot said were the noise made by the charging squadrons, the shock and neighing of horses.
The cart drubbed away and was lost. Then the heavy ticking of the clock edged into his senses tick, tock; tick, tock cat found; cat found. Then thought came. Cat found! then all was lost. Cat found! then some damned prowling idiot had chanced upon the hut. This miserable George had felt certain that Professor Wyvern's arguments would overcome his Mary's scruples.
Franchard was at length destroyed in the English wars, the same that levelled Gretz. These vessels were of monstrous value, Jean-Marie monstrous value priceless, we may say; exquisitely worked, of exquisite material. And now, mark me, they have never been found. In the reign of Louis Quatorze some fellows were digging hard by the ruins. Suddenly tock! the spade hit upon an obstacle.
The rumble of the wheels clanking on the iron rails seemed to say: "You'll be too late, you'll be too late." At Sacramento there was a wait of four hours for the east bound express, and Hattie sat in the depot where she could watch the clock, tick, tock, tick, tock swinging the pendulum in these moments of suspense and waiting.
Stupefy him outright, let him sleep." "But a man can't be paralysed by a little hole in his back! I tell you it was only a bullet. You must take it out, doctor. Take it out, and I shall be all right." Thus said a Zouave, who had been lying helpless for three days on his bed. "If you knew how strong I am! Look at my arms! No one could unhook a bag like me, and heave it over my shoulder tock!
Yet they read, glancing dully at headlines, devouring monotonously the luridness beneath headlines. They read with an irritation and a vague wonder. Tick, say the streets, and tock, say the houses; and within them men and women tick. To work and home again. Home again and to work. New shoes grow old. New seasons vanish. Years grind. Life sinks slowly away with a tick-tock on its lips.
