While flying it utters a very harsh, peculiar, and disagreeable scream, and by some is called the squealing hawk. The social habits of this bird are in appropriate concord with its voice. After rearing their young the sexes separate, and are jealous of and hostile to each other.
While this depressing thought was passing through her mind, her ear caught the regular breathing of the boy, and she knew he had fallen asleep. And while she listened, the measured breathing was broken by a soft, startled cry, such as one utters in a troubled dream. This chance occurrence furnished her instantly with a plan worth all her laboured tests combined.
As Alberto utters the last sad ejaculation, a thick hand attached to a short arm raises a kerchief to a pair of small eyes in this fat red face, and wipes them.
Callender is dour, and every time I spend sixpence of my own money on the Church she utters withering sarcasms about being only a 'daft auld woman hersel', and then I have to caress and coax her.
We have in these words this plain announcement that Rebellion is a crime, and shall be visited with terrible judgment. Solomon here speaks his own convictions; God declares his thought, and utters his sanction of law. This is also the expression of natural conscience, vindicating in our breast the Divine procedure, when the majesty of insulted government is asserted, and penalty applied.
There was no change in the priest's expression or manner, no starting, no betrayal of feeling. Keeping his eyes on the detective's face, he repeated the name as one utters a half-forgotten thing. "Why has that name a familiar sound?" he asked himself. "You may have read it frequently in the papers at the time Horace Endicott disappeared," Curran suggested.

She shoots daggers with her eyes at the English girl, but looks cannot hurt. As Lady Ruth utters her last words, she makes a sudden move. With a dexterous fling of an arm she succeeds in tearing from the Sister's face the cleverly-made thin stage mask that was contrived to conceal the features of one who did a double act. The professor laughs.
James utters his mind with a becoming fervour on the sanctity of truth to the novelist; on a more careful examination truth will seem a word of very debateable propriety, not only for the labours of the novelist, but for those of the historian. No art to use the daring phrase of Mr. James can successfully "compete with life"; and the art that seeks to do so is condemned to perish montibus aviis.
'And yet, quoth Mrs Todgers, shutting the door softly, 'she hasn't told you what her troubles are, I'm certain. Tom was struck by these words, for they were quite true. 'Indeed, he said, 'she has not. 'And never would, said Mrs Todgers, 'if you saw her daily. She never makes the least complaint to me, or utters a single word of explanation or reproach.
