"Why have we met with this treatment at your hands?" said papa, puzzled at the Greek's behaviour. "You have nothing to complain of," said Stephanos, with an air of courteous nobility which exasperated the captain to that degree that I saw him clenching and unclenching his fists, and dancing about, as Mr Moynham said afterwards, "like a hen on a hot griddle."
The transformation produced by the planton's shout was not merely amazing; it was uncanny, and not a little thrilling. These eyes bubbling with lust, obscene grins sprouting from contorted lips, bodies unclenching and clenching in unctuous gestures of complete savagery, convinced me by a certain insane beauty.
I could see their gleaming fangs. Yes, I could HEAR their bodies, and he was talking to them and laughing with them through his great beard and I turned and fled back to the cabin, running so swiftly that even the wolves would have had trouble in catching me. And that that WAS NOT ALL!" Again his fingers were clenching and unclenching as he stared at Raine. "You believe me, M'sieu?"
The Seer, with a long breath, drew his hand across his sand-begrimed face. "Hurry, Tex. For God's sake, hurry!" The Irishman was cursing fiercely in impotent rage, clenching and unclenching his huge, hairy fists. The boy cowered in his seat. But not a change came over the mask-like features of Jefferson Worth.
"Passing away, passing away," seemed continually issuing from each meeting cone. I have no doubt the contemplation of this ancient, solemn instrument, which old Father Time is always represented as grasping in one unclenching hand, while he brandishes in the other the merciless scythe, had a lasting influence on my character. That night, it was long before I fell asleep.
Lord Walderhurst stood clenching and unclenching his hands as they hung by his sides. He did not like to believe that his fever had touched his brain, but he doubted his senses hideously. "My good Maria," he said, "I do not understand a word you say, but I must go and see her." "And kill her, if she has a breath left! You will not stir from here. Thank Heaven! here is Dr. Warren."
But he kept back the words, and as David noted carelessly the slow clenching and unclenching of his hands, he believed that Hauck was not very far away, and that it was his warning and the fact that he was possibly listening to them, that restrained Brokaw from betraying himself completely. As it was, the grin returned slowly into his face.
Her podgy, jewelled hands are clenching and unclenching in her heliotrope chiffon lap; there is a well-defined scowl between the black arched eyebrows, and the murky light of battle gleams in the eyes that no longer languish between their bistred eyelids as she scans the pure pale face under the sweep of her heavily blackened lashes.
It was a hard blow to the Kaiser, who from the rear watched the battle as it progressed and stood nervously clenching and unclenching his hands as victory turned into defeat. The first two rows of German trenches had fallen into the hands of the French, and there the troops prepared to make themselves at home.
His long arms were hanging at his sides, the fingers clenching and unclenching close to the heavy pistols he wore one at each hip. As he stood there, blinking his eyes at Ruth and Lawler, Lawler spoke. "Come in, Singleton," he said. Ruth was still standing at the desk. Her arms were now outstretched along it, her hands gripping its edge.
