He lifted up his face, but not a breath of air fanned it; he looked across the hollow, the trees and bushes stood immobile. He laughed a third time, louder than before, and all at once his laughter got hold of him; he sent it pealing out hysterically, burst after burst, until the hollow seemed brimming with the din of it.
At hearing this achievement of hers thus spoken of, Bridget sobbed more hysterically than ever; but the doctor, looking at her arm as she held her apron to her face, thought in his heart that Joe must have had so much the worst of it, that there could be no possible need for the interference of Thomas the groom. And such turned out to be the case.
Some one will see us. 'We needn't kneel. Stand up and say "Our Father." We must! It was the first time since childhood that Conroy had prayed. They laughed hysterically when a curve threw them against an arm-rest. 'Now for breakfast! she cried. 'My maid Nurse Blaber has the basket and things. It'll be ready in twenty minutes. Oh! Look at my hair! and she went out laughing.
"But, Jerry, what would gypsies want with an old lady like Aunt Abigail? I thought they only stole babies." "Yes, and they come back after a while and claim their fathers' estates," chimed in Amy hysterically. Jerry would have liked to be consoling, but did not see his way clear to that end. He accordingly observed that real gypsies would steal anything they could lay their hands on.
To mention them was to touch all that was conventional, suburban, and second-class in Dawson. He itched to be gone. A picture of Vine Street police court and a curtly aloof magistrate flashed across his mind, and a reminiscence of evening paper headlines, and his mind fermented hysterically. The woman put back her knife in some secret recess of her clothes, and opened the door cautiously.
Three of the firemen, with a hose, rushed up the front stairs of Whimple's office and to the window through which the girls were coming. "Well, I'll be swizzled," said one of them, excitedly, "who made the bridge?" One of the girls paused a moment before leaving the office. "Two boys," she cried, hysterically, "they're in the factory helping the other girls."
I am a student of human character I wish to see her." The whole man appeared to have undergone a complete transformation. He spoke in the gentlest of voices, and he sighed hysterically when he had done, like a woman recovering from a burst of tears. Was it reviving courage or reviving curiosity? When Mrs. Macallan said to me, "The fit is over now; do you still wish to go away?"
He's hurt!" choked Aunt Hannah, hysterically. "Hurt! How?" "I don't know. Pete told me." "Pete!" "Yes. Rosa had told him we were coming, and he called me up. He said maybe I could do something. So he told me." "Yes, yes! But told you what?" "That he was hurt." "How?" "I couldn't hear all, but I think 'twas an accident automobile.
"It wasn't an easy job," explained Sam, "getting all that burnt cork off. You've no notion how the stuff sticks. You have to use butter...." She shuddered. "Don't!" "But I did. You have to with burnt cork." "Don't tell me these horrible things." Her voice rose almost hysterically. "I never want to hear the words burnt cork mentioned again as long as I live." "I feel exactly the same."
I had not, however, been with him long before I saw tears in his eyes, and when I asked him whether he was in distress, he said I reminded him of a son whom he had lost and had found after many years, only to lose him almost immediately for ever. Hence his cordiality towards me." "Then," said Yram half hysterically to herself, "he knew who you were. Now, how, I wonder, did he find that out?"
