"Sea's too bad outside there's a short cut here." "'Thanks," I said, "I know this one." Well, we came to the bar of the Schild, and had to turn south for that twisty bit of beating between Rottum and Bosch Flat. He must have slipped over quietly ... He had an ulster and big boots on. We cruised about for a time, but never found him.
Those visions conjured up within him, either by Zoraida's previous words and what had gone before or by the subtle workings of her mind now, were not unbroken. He thought of Twisty Barlow.
"It's a fool thing to do," growled Barlow. A fool thing for Kendric, but not for him, since his were the biggest losses. He had always loved money, had Twisty Barlow, and could never understand Headlong Kendric's contempt for it and now looked at him as though at one gone mad. Then he shrugged. "Suits me," he said. "Wait!"
Taine made mocking references to the novelist's promise not to leave the artist unprotected to her tender mercies, he always answered with some as she said twisty saying; to the effect that the present situation in no way lessened his determination to save the young man from the influences that would accomplish the ruin of his genius.
Washington gave her all the graciousness in which she had had faith: white columns seen across leafy parks, spacious avenues, twisty alleys. Daily she passed a dark square house with a hint of magnolias and a courtyard behind it, and a tall curtained second-story window through which a woman was always peering.
Kendric was relieved when, half an hour later, Twisty Barlow came back. Kendric's mood was boisterous from the sheer joy of being among friends and once more as good as on home soil.
I'm a boy, you know, and it's right I should go first in case of meeting anything that might frighten you," said Hugh. So he stepped up in front of Jeanne, and they slowly made their way. It was impossible to go fast. Never was there such a twisty little stair. Here and there, too, it got darker, so that they could only just find their way, step by step.
She said to Seumas that his fatal day would dawn when he loved a woman, because he would sacrifice his destiny to her caprice, and she begged him for love of her to beware of all that twisty sex.
There came a quiet rap at the door, then the voice of one of the housemaids, saying: "La Señorita Zoraida desires immediately to speak with Señor Barlow." Barlow, just easing himself into a chair, jumped up. "Coming," he called. Kendric, too, sprang up, his hand locking hard upon Barlow's arm. "Twisty," he said, "hold on a minute. The house isn't on fire." "Well?"
In her gloved hand was a little hand bag, a trifle in black leather the size of a man's purse. She opened it and spilled the contents on the table. Poured out into the mellow lamp light a long glorious string of pearls appeared, each separate lustrous gem glowing with its silvery sheen, satiny and tremulous with its shining loveliness. "Holy God!" gasped Twisty Barlow.
