They came crawling from every part of the ship's compass. Newcomers were warned whisperingly to keep from applause. In vain.
Contrary to his expectation, instead of being conducted directly into the main body of the building, Escombe, surrounded by fully a hundred priests, was led by Tiahuana into an anteroom, where he found assembled the Council of Seven, under the leadership of one Huanacocha who, Tiahuana whisperingly mentioned, was the chief and most powerful noble of the entire nation and some five hundred other nobles, to whom he was now to be presented, and who were thus to be afforded an opportunity of thoroughly satisfying themselves before matters were allowed to proceed any further, that the young man was indeed the re-incarnated Manco, for whose return to earth the nation had been looking forward for over three hundred years.
Then I looked at her, somewhat doubtfully, as though there were something unusual about her, and she whisperingly replied: "Not yet entirely." These strange words did not surprise me. At the moment I understood very well what she meant to say with them, and I asked: "Will you stay?" Then I wanted to fold her in my arms.
As soon as she was gone, the table was removed from the middle, and became a side-board; a couch was brought into its place, of which when I whisperingly inquired the reason, of my particular, he told me, "that as it was chiefly on my account that his convention was met, the parties intended at once to humour their taste of variety in pleasures, and by an open public enjoyment, to see me broke of any taint of reserve or modesty, which they looked on as the poison of joy; that though they occasionally preached pleasure, and lived up to the text, they did not enthusiastically set up for missionaries, and only indulged themselves in the delights of a practical instruction of all the pretty women they liked well enough to bestow it upon, and who fell properly in the way of it; but that as such a proposal might be too violent, too shocking for a young beginner, the old standers were to set an example, which he hoped I would not be averse to follow, since it was to him I was devolved in favour of the first experiment; but that still I was perfectly at my liberty to refuse the party, which being in its nature one of pleasure, supposed an exclusion of all force or constraint."
Above their heads a gentle wind blew murmuringly and whisperingly through the wide-spreading branches of the evergreen oak; and, at their feet, snapped and crackled the ruddy flames of their own camp-fire. By nine o'clock the lights of the surrounding camp-fires began to grow dimmer, and the songs and the laughter and the talking of the groups around them ceased.
He clenched the hands in his coat-pockets, and turned his back on her, and she saw his shoulders heave. "It is killing me," he said "killing me just that." His voice, which had been raised, sank brokenly. She listened, when it was silent, to the beating of her heart. In a minute she went to him and laid a hand upon his arm. "Then, why?" she asked him, whisperingly. "Why?"
She sunk her voice very low, and bent a little towards me. "Were his words pleasant and fair spoken?" she said. "They could not have been more so at the last," I replied, the memory of my anger coming back to me of a sudden. "You crossed him once, then?" "But a little; he crossed me rather," I said plainly. "Wear your mail, Redwald," she said whisperingly. "Farewell."
"I think you are Priam Farll because you painted that picture I bought from you this morning, and I am sure that no one but Priam Farll could have painted it." "Then you've been playing a game with me all morning!" "Please don't put it like that, cher maître," Mr. Oxford whisperingly pleaded. "I only wished to feel my ground.
Can either you or I desire that the destinies of France shall be swayed by coxcombical artisans who think themselves superior to every man who writes grammar, and whose idea of a common- wealth is the confiscation of private property?" Rameau, thoroughly puzzled by this discourse, bowed his head, and replied whisperingly, "Proceed. You are against the Empire, yet against the populace!
