If anything, the fury of the storm seemed to increase as time passed, swelling to such terrible violence that one imagined nothing could withstand its force, its mad blasts, its deadliness. "Those mess tents and horse tents," Lee said to Carrigan, anxiously. "They're safer under their lee of hay than is this little paper box we're sitting in," the contractor replied.
The Sylva had brought back news of a third defeat of Mekinese by Kandar ships and hot blood longed to make a full-scale test of its own deadliness. There were few ships of the fleet which did not have a low-power overdrive field unit ready to be spliced into circuit if the occasion arose.
Slowly, surely, but with grim deadliness they laid their plans this time to run no risk of failure. There was a stillness solemn and all-pervading. And from the window of the jail came again in wailing uncanny notes: "I'm a pilgrim and I'm a stranger, I can tarry, I can tarry but a night "
The interest aroused by the pipe, however, was as nothing compared with that bestowed on the fire-spouter. For there was a mystery, noise, and deadliness about the latter which tended to evoke feelings of awe rather than amusement. "I don't like to trouble your father too much, Adolay," whispered Cheenbuk; "would you say to him that we wish very much to see him use the spouter?"
His aim is unerring. She insisted on the deadliness of his aim, and dwelt on it with a gloating delight that her conscience approved, for she was persuading the youth to shun his fatal aim.

The most favorable climate and soil for each product selected; the exact requirements of the community known, and the acreage figured accordingly; the most improved machinery employed, under the direction of expert agricultural chemists! I was brought up on a farm, and I know the awful deadliness of farm work; and I like to picture it all as it will be after the revolution.
Julian very quietly tore the miserable sophism to shreds, and said, "There is but one way to describe these vices, Hazlet, they are deadly, bitter, ruinous." "Oh, they are very common. Lots of men " "Tush!" said Julian; "their commonness, if indeed it be so, does not diminish their deadliness.
But from the other side came a stunning blow on the point of my jaw, and I heard Paul scream angrily, "Now will you keep away?" Then they came together again, the impact of their blows, their groans and gasps, and the swift flashings and shadow-movings telling plainly of the deadliness of the struggle. I shouted for help, and Gaffer Bedshaw came running into the court.
Through such an armor the projectiles of our time would penetrate as easily as a bullet through a pine board. It was the development of gun power and projectiles that called forth the thick armor, but it was soon found that it was impossible for the armor to keep pace with the deadliness of the guns as it was utterly impossible to carry the weight necessary to resist the force of impact.
