He could not believe that he was at last worthy to behold the Tree, yet there it rose, oh, so glorious! its trunk glowing with a sweet, warm fire, its branches covered with lights and heavy with delicious fruit. He laughed with joy, while the old woman softly wept. Even the horse saw the fine sight, for he whinnied his pleasure.
A piece of bark struck me in the face, and a dead leaf fluttered to the ground. Almost instantly there was another shot, and a blue wisp of smoke rose from the red-bud bushes, where Tom was. The horses whinnied, there was a rustle in the cane, and silence. Weldon bent over. "My God!" he whispered hoarsely, "he hit one. Tom hit one." I felt Polly Ann's hand on my face.
Again the dogs barked in the kennels and the horses whinnied in the stalls. The hundred years were past and all was life and joy once more. Out of the palace gates rode the bold prince, and beside him rode the happy princess, whom his kiss had waked. One night, when Alice was a very little girl, her papa came home early from the office.
It was soon afternoon. All Coventry was thronged with people keeping holiday, and at the Blue Boar a scene of wild confusion reigned. Tap-room and hall were crowded with guests, and in the cobbled court horses innumerable stamped and whinnied.
"What's all this about?" said a strange voice, and looking about quickly, they saw a sea-horse riding up to them. "I am very glad to see you," said Kernel Cob. "You're just in time to give us a lift on our journey." "With pleasure," whinnied the sea-horse. "And where might you be going?" "To find Jackie and Peggs' motheranfather," said Sweetclover.
An old blaze-faced sorrel horse whinnied as he stepped up to untie it. Jake mounted and rode off slowly, his bare feet dangling far below the stirrups. It was two miles to the Appleton farm, down a hot, dusty road, and he took his time in going.
Chester stroked the horse's head gently and the animal whinnied in pain. "I'm awfully sorry, old fellow," said the lad, "but it will be best for you." The horse seemed to understand. Chester took aim and fired quickly. "And now what are we going to do?" he asked. "Climb up behind me," said Hal. "We've got a pretty fair start. May be they will not overtake us."
"You can do everything but talk, and you'll be a most valuable ally of ours on this expedition." The horse whinnied gently as if he understood and Will, leading the four back to the rich grass, tethered them at the ends of their long lariats. "Now, suppose you get out your big glasses," said the hunter, "and we'll go to the top of the hill for a look.
As they struggled up she whinnied loudly. A whistle answered her far down the lane, and at the sound of it she was off again like a bird.
Whether his principal feeling was of relief or disappointment, he could not have said. Ed was looking at him curiously. "Not mine," said Sam, blushing. "I mean the team I used to drive." As the horses mounted the rise, Sam called in a softened voice: "Sambo! Dinah!" The little black pair pricked up their ears and whinnied. Sam went to meet them.
