The lammergeier, huge and horrible with scarlet eyes ablaze, came out on the shelf of rock and yelped at the great rock-eagles; but, if something indeed lay dead there, possibly it was enough for all or perhaps the vulture-like bird was too heavily gorged to offer battle.
When mobs raided the news-stands, at each was stationed a militiaman, a young, embarrassed citizen-soldier with eye-glasses, bookkeeper or grocery-clerk in private life, trying to look dangerous while small boys yelped, "Get onto de tin soldier!" and striking truck-drivers inquired tenderly, "Say, Joe, when I was fighting in France, was you in camp in the States or was you doing Swede exercises in the Y. M. C. A.? Be careful of that bayonet, now, or you'll cut yourself!"
And blind fear descended upon Michael, the fear that is implanted in all animals and in man himself the fear of the trap. Utterly beside himself, though he no longer yelped, he flung himself madly about, straining the tendons and muscles of his shoulder and leg and further and severely injuring the crushed foot.
Oliver, alarmed and indignant, supposing this intrusive spectator of his privacy to be some bold and lawless tramper, stepped out of the room, opened the front door, and bade the stranger go about his business; while the terrier still more inhospitably yelped and snapped at the stranger's heels. Then a hoarse voice said, "Don't you know me, Oliver? I am your brother Randal!
Our captain took off his beaver, felt the bullet-hole in the brim, looked up coolly, and pointed his musket. "Drop that pistol!" said he. The fellow yelped out fear. Down clattered his weapon to the deck. "Now sit there," ordered Radisson, replacing his beaver. "Sit there till I give you leave to come down!" Allemand, the pilot, had lost his head and was steering a course crooked as a worm fence.
The dogs were hoisted by means of a lariat, the men gained the shelf, and clambering along in single file they presently reached the summit. A furious barking led them on; then those in the rear heard a shout. The savage was seen, half a mile away, crossing an opening at a run and striking at the dogs that leaped and yelped around him.
They had fortunately found their way to his eyes. He was the veriest coward of his species. He yelped and howled, and struggling from my grasp ran with his tail merged in his person back to his mistress, who was hobbling after me. But with the renewed strength of triumph I turned again for home, and ran as I had never run before.
"We have been hymposed upon all this voyage," said a gruff voice, "but this 'ere fancy takes the cake." "That man is a shipmate." "Are we bloomin' kids?" "The port watch will refuse duty." Charley carried away by his feeling whistled shrilly, then yelped: "Giv' us our Jimmy!" This seemed to cause a variation in the disturbance. There was a fresh burst of squabbling uproar.
The man in the crowd yelped again, encouraged by his distance and by Morrison's passivity under attack. "You think you own a mill. Your honest workmen own it. You are a thief!" "My Gawd!" Lanigan squawked, hoarsely. "Ain't it in you? Ain't a spark of it in you?" Morrison delivered sharp retort in an undertone. "Don't you know better than to tangle my lines when I'm playing a fish? Shut up!"
The claimant boy laid such insistent hands on the puppy, and Eddy so resisted, that the little animal yelped loudly. Carroll stepped up. His lips were ashy. This last idiotic episode was unnerving him more than all that had gone before. "Give that boy his dog," he commanded Eddy, sternly. Eddy clung more tightly to the little dog, and began to whimper. "But, papa " "Do as I tell you."
