He turned once more to Ray, eyeing him with such a look of contempt and scorn that it smarted like a whiplash in spite of the protecting mantel of his new-found triumph. "Oh, you depraved dogs!" he told them quietly and distinctly. "You yellow, mongrel cowards!" Ray straightened, stung by the words. "And I'll make you wish you was dead before you ever said that," he threatened.
The whiplash to it ran: "You will afford Mr. Groombride every facility for his inquiry, and will be held responsible that no obstacles are put in his way to the fullest possible examination of any witnesses which he may consider necessary. He will be accompanied by his own interpreter, who must not be tampered with." "That's to me Governor of the Province!" said Peter the Governor.

Before very long they sighted the Rumpety wagon showing plainly against the snow in the starlight. The road went most of the way down-hill, and wagon and bronco made good speed. The air grew colder every minute. "About ten below, shouldn't you say, Pincher?"
The idlers shouted, and Werbode laughed, while the two men had all they could do to prevent the other slaves from breaking away; or else they themselves had no reason to object to seeing their master tasting his own sauce. The heavy plaits of the whiplash curled round the legs of the trader, and he writhed.
It was known that he was a libertine. The devotion of his young Cree wife was repaid with sneers and the whiplash. But he was an ill man to make an enemy of.

She can divorce you, and you will be freed forever from the one great mistake you ever made. As for me " "As for you be silent!" The command struck like a whiplash.

"Do you scold this woman for coming to be healed on the Sabbath? Every single one of you will lead your ox to water as soon as you get home. If that isn't work, what is?" His scorn bit into the elders like a whiplash. "You say the Law allows you to give your cattle water. Hasn't this woman the right to be healed? For eighteen years her body has been twisted. She is a child of Abraham!

Not if he humbled himself in the dust. Toward Angus McRae she held no grudge whatever. He had done only his duty as he saw it. The circumstances had forced his hand, for her word had pledged him to punishment.
She heard Umballa speaking in the native tongue. A great shouting followed. The populace surged. "What have you said to them?" she demanded. "That her majesty had chosen Durga Ram to be her consort and to him now forthwith she will be wed." He salaamed. So the mask was off! "Marry you? Oh, no! Mate with you, a black?" "Black?" he cried, as if a whiplash had struck him across the face.
