He was so wabbly, and so slow flying from tree to tree and through the bushes, I just had to wait on him, for I couldn't drive him back." "Of course you couldn't! Me bird has too amazing good sinse to go back when he could be following you," exulted Freckles, exactly as if he did not realize what the delay had cost him.
They were spherical, white and wabbly. "You're a prize poacher," I remarked, my spirits reviving. She smiled appreciatively. "Going far?" she inquired, sitting down quite at ease at one of the neighboring tables. I looked pensively at her pleasant face across the eggs. "That's a question," I answered. "I can't make out whether I've been moving on or just going round and round in a circle."
Without it things will tangle; your heart will cool, your spirit sometimes take on an edge that isn't good, your judgment get warped and twisted, and your will grow either wabbly or stubborn. This second thing must be put in the daily round, and kept in. It helps to hold you steady to the first thing.
We walked across the rafters to an adjoining room, where there were two or three chairs and an old sofa, had schnapps all round, and then went out to walk over the position. In front was the wabbly foot-bridge run across by the pioneers, and on the swampy flats the little heaps of sod thrown up by the first line as they pushed across wading up to their necks part of the way under fire.
At last his efforts were rewarded; the man opened his eyes and stared dully up at him. For some time he lay there motionless. Then, with a wild light of terror in his eye, he struggled to his feet and attempted to flee. His wabbly legs would not support him. He tumbled to the earth, only to try it again. Rover ran barking after him. "Let him alone," smiled Phi.
He'd made his grand roarin' lion play, which had always scared the tar out of his folks, and he'd responded to an encore. Yet here was this mild-eyed young gent with the pale hair and the square jaw not even wabbly in the knees from it. "Come, Edna," says Gilkey, holdin' out a hand to her. "Let's go into the dining-room." "But but see here!" gasps Pa Pulsifer, makin' a final effort.
Every time she looked at him out of them big black eyes he got as wabbly as clabber. It was plumb disgustin'. That evenin' he give her a guitar lesson.
Of the so-called joys of ship-life, concerning which the boat companies speak so enthusiastically in their folders, the less said the better. It is a childish mind, I think, that can be impressed by the mere wabbly bulk of water. It is undoubtedly tremendous, but nothing to kick up such a row about.
There it is, and there it will stay telling more truths about him who made it, than he in his fatuity imagines; revealing his mind and his heart exactly for what they are worth, not a whit more, not a whit less; telling plainly the lies he thinks; telling with almost cruel truthfulness his bad faith, his feeble, wabbly mind, his impudence, his selfish egoism, his mental irresponsibility, his apathy, his disdain for real things until at last the building says to us: "I am no more a real building than the thing that made me is a real man!"
The soldier made no attempt to rise, but curled up, twisting in agony. Peter stood in the dust-cloud, wabbly, with roaring head. His open mouth was full of dust. Then he became aware that negroes were running in from every direction, shouting. Their voices whooped out what had happened, who it was, who had licked. Tump Pack's agonized spasms brought howls of mirth from the black fellows.
