At last his head projected through the mesh of verdure into clear daylight. Jack lifted himself to solid ground and leaned against the tree trunk, out of breath and perspiring. "That was action," he panted. "Will the beast come after me? No but something else may. Oh, the mischief!" The roars and growlings down in the cave seemed to have attracted outside attention.
They should early learn that language is not primarily a vehicle of ideas and information, but an emotional outlet, corresponding to various cooings, growlings, snarls, crowings, and brayings.

Growling, the great apes leaped forward toward Tarzan and Werper.
Sure enough an undeniable bear sprang out on us as we dropped into the road; then ensued shrieks, growlings, revolver-shots, and unrecorded heroisms, till Edward condescended at last to roll over and die, bulking large and grim, an unmitigated grizzly.
