But Hera leaping forth from heaven pealed her cry from the Hercynian rock; and all together were shaken with fear of her cry; for terribly crashed the mighty firmament. And backward they turned by reason of the goddess, and noted the path by which their return was ordained.
When the hour of ten had pealed from the neighbouring steeple Mac- Guffog came prepared with a small dark lantern.
So after several more clear, resounding strokes had pealed forth, calling the volunteer department out to fight the fire demon, one scout started wildly for the double doors of the smithy. He was immediately followed by others, and in almost the twinkling of an eye the Carberry blacksmith shop was emptied of its late noisy crowd. "Wow! look at that, will you?" "It's a barn most likely!"
I never saw an Indian or anybody else run so fleetly. Yell after yell pealed back to us. Absolutely dumfounded we all gazed at each other. "That's your dead Indian!" ejaculated Jim. "What the hell!" exclaimed Emett, who seldom used such language. "Look here!" cried Jones, grabbing the bottle. "See! Don't you see it?" Jim fell face downward and began to shake. "What?" shouted Emett and I together.
"We must clew up the topsails while the men can get upon the yards. See to it forward, Mr Hillebrant." The lightning now darted athwart the firmament, and the thunder pealed.

The sharp strokes of axes rang out on the clear morning air, and a mellow anvil-clang pealed up from the blacksmith shop. Colonel Zane found his brother Silas and Jim Douns near the gate. "Morning, boys," he cried cheerily. "Any glimpse of Jack or Lew?" asked Silas. "No; but I'm expecting one of 'em any moment." "How about the Indians?" asked Douns.
As the house door closed behind him, the electric bell pealed once more, and the servant turned back to the drawing-room. "I am not at home in future to Mr Druce! Please remember!" said Lady Margot. Then her eye fell on the envelope of a telegram which the man was carrying towards her. She tore it open, saw at a glance that it came from Mrs Thornton at Raby, and read the following message:
"Now, if my dear Mary could only pop in on us and " but Mr. Bingle choked up suddenly and turned his attention to the stirring of the coals in the stove. The door-bell pealed again, this time with surprising authority and decision. Mr. Bingle started as if shot. As he faced the little hall, his eyes were wide with an incredulous stare of wonder.
"They're at it already," said Hixley, as a wreath of blue smoke floated across the stream below us, and the loud boom of a large gun resounded through the air. Then came a deafening shout, followed by a rattling volley of small arms, gradually swelling into a hot sustained fire, through which the cannon pealed at intervals.
