His eyes ranged timidly over the sombre waste the vasty, splendid heavens, the coast, dark and unfeeling, the infinite, sullen sea, which ominously darkened as he looked and he covered his face with his hands. "No," he whispered, looking up, "I do not wonder that you believe in God and fear Him!" Then I knew that roundabout he felt the presence of an offended God. "And fear Him!" he repeated.
By what arrangement or influence she made the deckhands considerately blind to this repetition of the journey without money and without price, I neither knew nor cared, being altogether engaged with playing about the deck and admiring the wonders of the vasty deep. The other boats were wonderful, especially the big sailing-ships, which were far more numerous then than they are now.
This last was somewhat clumsily contrived, I grant you, and of a vasty strength quite unnecessary, yet a very, excellent door I considered it, nevertheless. Having thus rendered my cottage weather-proof, I next turned my attention to furnishing it.
But Sibelius has written music innocent of roof and inclosure, music proper indeed to the vasty open, the Finnish heaven under which it grew. And could we but carry it out into the northern day, we would find it undiminished, vivid with all its life.
Edwin Brook spoke heartily, as he clapped his hat firmly on, preparatory to going out to make things secure against the expected storm. As if his voice had called up spirits from the "vasty deep," two horsemen suddenly appeared approaching at full speed. One of them was of unusual size. "Here they come just in time!" exclaimed Gertie, clapping her hands in excitement.
"Nay, indeed," says I, shaking my head, "I am very well, I thank you!" "Then wherefore sigh so deep and oft?" "I am a vasty fool!" "Are you, Martin why?"

"To-morrow night at twelve o'clock we shall be far out on the vasty deep." "We shall be on the 'Princess Eulalie," I answered. "Go to sleep." Neither of us spoke the truth. At twelve the following night we were neither "far out on the vasty deep" nor on the "Princess Eulalie." My first move after breakfast was to telephone Campbell at his city home.
Shakespeare himself, who apologizes for trying to make a cockpit hold the vasty fields of France, might have been excused for not attempting to decant The Universal Deluge into a receptacle scarcely bigger than a costermonger's barrow. Of the three remaining cars, Sin was beyond comparison the finest both in conception and execution.
The trail had left the woodland far to the eastward, and wound its way over broad prairie billows, past bluffy-banked streams, along crests of low watersheds, until at last it slid down into an open endlessness of the Lord's earth just a vasty bigness of landstuff seemingly left over when geography-making was done.
Jolly old boy, though deuced fond of him ha! there's Haynes! Over yonder! Fellow driving the phaeton with the black-a-moor in the rumble." "You mean the man in the bright green coat?" "Yes. Call him 'Pea-green Haynes' one of your second-rate, ultra dandies. Twig his vasty whiskers, will you! Takes his fellow hours to curl 'em. And then his cravat, b'gad!"
