She came to the end of the vivace movement, and abandoned her piece. "I always prefer Schumann in his vivace moods," said Aaron. "Do you?" said Lady Franks. "Oh, I don't know." It was now the turn of Arthur's wife to sing. Arthur seemed to get further away: if it was possible, for he was at the remotest remote end of the room, near the gallery doors. The Colonel became quiet, pensive.

The second movement is a larghetto highly embroidered. The third movement is a vivace with the spirit of a Beethoven presto. Opus 36 is a suite for violin and piano, beginning with a most engaging and most skilful Novelette.

Altogether, I had nearly thirty pounds in hand, which seemed a lot, only I didn't know at all how much it would cost for Vivace and me to reach Sally in Chicago; and I couldn't tell until I had got irrevocably away from Mrs. Ess Kay and The Moorings. By this time it was nearly two o'clock, and in a couple of hours it would be light.

A big counter-bombardment was now working up from our side. I spoke on the telephone to Raven, who told me that all our Batteries were firing "double vivace." At a quarter past six the Austrians attacked. There was a terrific rattle of Italian machine gun fire, almost drowning the sound of the heavier explosions, and a stream of rockets went up from our front line calling for more barrage.

Once the thing was started, I had little to do except to change occasionally the rate of fire, "lento," "normale," "vivace," "celere" and "double vivace" by turns. The first part of the day I was in charge of the Right Section of the Battery and sat most of the time on a wooden bench at a table under a tarpaulin among the acacias.

There were just five minutes to say farewell to my friend, and buy a ticket, when all flushed and panting, I found myself and Vivace and the bag, in a car different from any I had seen yet.

So he crossed his neatly-khakied legs, and looked rapt again. Lady Franks started with a vivace Schumann piece. Everybody listened in sanctified silence, trying to seem to like it. When suddenly our Colonel began to spring and bounce in his chair, slinging his loose leg with a kind of rapture up and down in the air, and capering upon his posterior, doing a sitting-down jig to the Schumann vivace.

I thought you would like the little chap." "I love him dearly. Often I should have been dreadfully homesick if it hadn't been for him. He always seems to understand if I feel gloomy, and he does his dear little brindled best to cheer me up." "Vivace is a lucky and happy dog." "But don't you miss him?" "No. For I like to think that you have him.

John Steele leaned back, half closed his eyes; again pain, fatigue seemed creeping over him. Outside sounded the clicking and clinking of glasses, a staccato of guffaws, tones vivace.
