It was as though some one had whispered the truth into her ear and she was beginning to believe. From that moment her courage began to fail. The glow from her lantern was a menace instead of a help. A sweet timorousness enveloped her and something tingled she knew not what. Spattering raindrops whizzed in her face, ominous forerunners from the inky sky.
Now and then a motor whizzed by, leaving a long trail of dust-cloud in its wake, and earning hearty remarks from every slower wayfarer. There were riders everywhere, men and women most of the latter with riding-skirts slipped on over light dresses that would do duty that night at the concert and the dance that was to follow.
He had retired and settled in London and he now came very briskly up to Aunt Belle, to Rosalie and to beautiful Laetitia, greeting them and bursting into full stream of chatter while he was yet some distance away; and, having been introduced to Rosalie and snatched at her hand precisely as if doing so while shooting in midair between one red-hot stepping-stone and the next, whizzed presently to "I really came out to post a letter" and flapped the letter in the air as if it were a bothersome thing stuck to his fingers and refusing absolutely to be stuffed into a post-box.
I wanted to tell him that I did not think that I could endure to feel again that awful expansion of my back and the turning my feet into toads. "Of course I can't leave you," he said. And suddenly I sprang back into my own clothes again. I flung the charlatan out and he flumped off into air. "Come on," I said, and I ran. No bullets whizzed past us.
However, there was nothing to be done, and so they were whizzed off, while with the tail of her eye Cecilia Cricklander perceived that Lord Freynault had been displaced from Cora's side and was now stalking behind the other pair, beside Arabella Clinker. "What an extraordinary sight that was," she said to Sir Tedbury Delvine as they went along.
White haired now, but still handsome and erect, he rode this day in front of his troops, once and again turning his head to cheer them onward. Bullets whizzed and screamed about him, but he heeded them not. "I was nearly scared to death," said one of his men afterwards, "but I saw the old man's white moustache over his shoulder, and went on."
Suddenly from behind her there came a loud report a nerve-shattering sound. She whizzed round. He had a gun, then. She had not seen that he had a gun. But what had happened? What? What? She was trembling so that she could barely stand, yet she forced her quaking limbs to move. Back she stumbled, back through the glaring sunlight.
He's the kind that would be in the thick of it." Just then there was a flash from the window and a bullet whizzed by the Army Boys and flattened against the wall on the other side of the street. "I'll bet that was aimed at you, Frank!" exclaimed Bart. "That fellow's a bad shot but he has a good memory."
The pale face contracted with pain, and she was obliged to defend herself from the blows by her hands. "Come! Go ahead!" she exclaimed with savage delight, and she passed from lento to allegro-vivace in the use of her whip. The unhappy woman screamed and quickly raised her feet. "You have got to dance, you d d Indian!" exclaimed the Señora and the whip whizzed and whistled.
But they made up for this on other stretches, and were congratulating themselves that on the whole they were making pretty good time when suddenly they were startled by a number of rifle shots and bullets whizzed by uncomfortably close. "It's the Huns!" cried Frank. "I didn't know they'd got as close as this!" exclaimed Bart. "More gas, Frank! Quick!"
