Now, as he hastily drew out his watch, it occurred to him that Lessing's chauffeur was a fellow of more perspicuity than he had given him credit for. The two men communicated wordlessly across the cool width of the terrace steps. "At what hour," Peter wished to know, "would we have to leave here to reach Maplemont in good time?
Slowly, wordlessly they subsided to their seats. But James McGuire, former Police Commissioner of New York, sprang to his feet. He growled: "Goldberg is right; we are acting like children. In the name of God let us face this thing the way men ought to face it and lay dead the bugaboo, if it is a bugaboo, or face squarely the facts, if there's really something in it to fear.
Two cars farther back he had dropped into the seat by Elizabeth and was gurgling wordlessly. A massive lady, who had entered the train at East Moriches in company with three children and a cat in a basket, eyed him with a curiosity that she made no attempt to conceal. Two girls in a neighbouring seat leaned forward eagerly to hear all.
"Nonsense! Doesn't understand a word." Mary danced the next dance with him. They danced wordlessly until the dance was half over. Then, abruptly, Mary said in English, "What's your name?" Close against him she felt a sudden little sharp contraction of the gigolo's diaphragm the contraction that reacts to surprise or alarm. But he said, in French, "Pardon?"
The Misses Avery knew the girls by name already, having talked much with Prudence. "Such a Fairy!" gasped Miss Millicent, and the others echoed the gasp, but wordlessly.

Well, that's what I want to strike. It'll sound good and feel good." For such gibbering lunacy as this the master mariner had no fit reply. His jaws worked wordlessly.
Even had you gone when Sam first came, they would have cut you down in the plaza. You can only lend a hand here." Wordlessly, Thode stumbled back beside him to the gambling-room. That which but a moment before had seemed like a wild, purposeless stampede had resolved itself into an unorganized but determined defensive.
Certainly the constraint between them thickened and deepened in step with the engulfing night; they could not see each other's faces, they could not glimpse each other's souls. Both were baffled and into the temper of each came a growing irritation. One thing alone they appeared to have in common the desire to come to the end of the ride. Their spurs dipped and they raced along wordlessly.
