"No," replied Obed cheerfully. "Time and tide wait for no Mexicans, and the tide's at the flood. We charge within a minute." Even as he spoke, Moore shouted: "Now, boys, rush 'em!" For the third time the Texans uttered that deep, rolling cheer. The cannon sent a volley of grape shot into the cluster on the mound and then the Texans rushed forward at full speed, straight at the enemy.
A grey seal had been heard speaking with tongues off Siggness, and speaking ill words, said the fishermen who saw the beast. A white reindeer had appeared on Sunfell, and the hunter who followed it had not been seen again. By day, too, there was a brooding of hawks on the tide's edge, which was strange at that season.
"Well, he mayn't be exactly immersed, but the tide's caught him." "The tide? You might be talking of the Atlantic." "The stream then the stream of tendency that makes for muck." "It isn't a stream, it's a filthy duck-pond in somebody's back yard. There's just enough water for the rest to drown in, but it isn't deep enough to float a man of Rickman's size.
"Oh, no, thank you," she said weakly. "I won't trouble you. I I will wait till the tide is out." "The tide's out now," he answered with coldness, "and you can't wade." She rose desperately. "Why, of course!" she cried in self-contempt, glancing at the water, into which he promptly stepped to his boot-tops. "A woman must n't get her feet wet."
The loyal hangers-on, who believed in divine right, were too proud of the company they found themselves in to make any such humiliating admission. But there are people, and plenty of them, to-day, who will dispute facts just as clear to those who have taken the pains to learn what is known about them, as that of the tide's rising.
I can take him to a doctor who'll attend him and who'll hold his tongue, which is more to the purpose. It'll mean a few guineas, but 'twill be money well spent." "See to it, then, Rofflash. Where's the man to be found?" "His house is on London Bridge. The tide's running down fairly, and the waterman ought to get us to the bridge in half an hour." Dorrimore assented gloomily.
Dick and I are boss for three days, and we want this boat to start up Broad River immejit!" "Tide's jist a-bilin' out of the river. It'll take all day to get anywhere. Hadn't you better anchor at the mouth of the river till it turns? We can run up the river in the night, so you won't lose any time."
"They were here a minute ago. I'll go and look for them." Just as Rose got up and as Mrs. Bunker arose from the hammock, a voice down near the shore of the inlet called: "Come back. Get out of that boat! Mother, Margy and Mun Bun are in the boat, and it's loose, and they're riding down the inlet and the tide's going out! Oh, Mother, hurry!" You can easily believe that Mrs.
"Let's go down to the shore now, and see if we can find some crabs," I said. "The tide's getting very low." "What's the good?" said Bob picking up the iron bar, and chipping this stone and loosening that. "I say, why don't some of those stones rock? They ought to."
Neither was it easy to keep her on the true course, for the slightest variation from the direct line in a tide's way causes a vessel to sheer. To remedy the latter danger, Paul was obliged to watch his helm closely, having no other guide than the noisy and continued vociferations of the Arabs. "These liftings of the boat are full of hope," resumed Paul; "I think, too, that they increase."
