It demands no elaborate expression. Simplicity is its only coinage. A rhapsody on the exquisiteness of the fruit's flavour would have bored Evadne stiff. Her soul yearned for the establishment between us of a link of appreciation. "Yum, yum," said I, and the link was instantly supplied. She threw away a peach stone and sighed. "Let's go." "Why?" I asked.
But as the gods slept, there came from beyond the Rim, out of the dark and unknown, three Yozis, spirits of ill, that sailed up the river of Silence in galleons with silver sails. Far away they had seen Yum and Gothum, the stars that stand sentinel over Pegana's gate, blinking and falling asleep, and as they neared Pegana they found a hush wherein the gods slept heavily.
Shove a cup over this way as quick as you know how, brother. Yum, yum, that goes straight to the spot. And this cheese and crackers isn't half way bad, even if it is pilot biscuit." "Well," said Andy, "ain't you a pilot all right, and don't they feed sailors on this hard tack generally? Sure we've got no kick coming.
Curtis led the way through a dark yard down to a pier. Moored there lay a handsome white sloop, some forty-two feet in length—a boat of a good and seaworthy knockabout type. “This is a sloop, all right,” Jack agreed, cordially. “Rather different from the lumbering fishing craft hereabouts.” “Oh, hah, yum!” yawned Hal, at which Curtis shot a quick glance at him.
"Yum, yum," went on Thad, swinging it to and fro, and gloating over the tempting appearance of the game; "don't I just wish it was time to sound the gong for supper and these boys browned and ready to be devoured. But three mortal hours must crawl along before then. How can I ever stand it?" he groaned.
Yum, yum, my mouth fairly waters for it, boys!" "Some like venison and some say gray nut-fed squirrels," remarked Trapper Jim. "As for me, give me squirrel every time." "But we ought to try and get one deer anyway, hadn't we?" Steve pleaded. "Sure we will," replied the owner of the cabin, heartily, "and I hope it falls to your gun, Steve, seeing you dote on venison so.
The headwind died away as they came to the boat and again we resumed the weary rowing, a labour which all were supposed to share, but it did not need an expert to see that Beaulieu, Snuff, and Terchon merely dipped their oars and let them drift a while; the real rowing of that cumbrous old failure of a sailboat was done by Billy Loutit and Yum Freesay."
Straight from here I hike to Payne an' bind the bargain an option, you know, while title's searchin' an' I 'm raisin' money. We'll borrow that four hundred back again from Gow Yum, an' I'll borrow all I can get on my horses an' wagons, an' Hazel and Hattie, an' everything that's worth a cent. An' then I get the deed with a mortgage on it to Hilyard for the balance.
When the Baron mouthed he became in expression Punchinello with his finger alongside his nose, his face tightening and knotting into cunning. "Pretty soft on the Granite Jaw! Yum yum yum!" "Little devil! Little devil! I'll catch you and spank you to death." "Yum! Yum!" "It's better to have loved a short man Than never to have loved atall." "Little peewee, you! Jastrow ain't short.
But she must have looked very thoughtful; for when Geoffrey came in, he saw her still sitting in the lounge, and exclaimed, "Why, my little Yum Yum, how serious we are! We look as if we were at our own funeral. Couldn't you get the things you wanted?" "Oh yes," said Asako, trying to brighten up, "and I've had a visitor. Guess!" "Relations?" "No and yes. It was Mr. Ito, the lawyer."
