That, was how it read, and certainly it fitted him now, as he stood there in the middle of the thick curling smoke of the pipes, holding the mug of coffee in one hand and the sandwich of bread and meat in the other, leaning easily against the butt of the foremast, and between gulps and bites taking notice of the crew.
Shorty became suddenly engaged in cooling his coffee, enjoying the varied emotions depicted on the faces of the boys. "Who's coming?" "What's up?" Shorty took two leisurely gulps before he answered: "Old Man's sister's coming out to stay all summer and then some, maybe. Be here to-morrow, he said." "Gee whiz! Is she pretty?" This from Cal Emmett. "Hope she ain't over fifty." This from Jack Bates.
The rock on the south side of the lake, called the Phantom Ship, is believed by the Indians to be a destructive monster, innocent as it looks in the daytime. So with Rock Lake, in Washington. A hideous reptile sports about its waters and gulps down everything that it finds in or on them.
He half filled it with wine; then casting an affectionate look at the bottle, he exclaimed, "It would be a pity." And putting it to his mouth, sailor-like, he took a few hearty gulps. "Now, Walter," he said, "before we throw the wine away, just take some biscuit and this bit of beef.

There they sat at tea, this singular group of human beings: Mr. Skale, bigger than ever in his loose housesuit of black, swallowing his liquid with noisy gulps; Spinrobin, nibbling slippery morsels of hot toast, on the edge of his chair; Miriam, quiet and mysterious, in her corner; and Mrs.
Her work was not, comparatively speaking, arduous, but the serving of hot coffee and frankfurters to workingmen was not progressive, and she looked as if her principal diet was the left-overs of the stock in trade. She seemed to exhale an odor of musty sandwiches and sausages and muddy coffee. The man swallowed his second cup in fierce gulps. He glanced at his Ingersoll watch. "Gee whiz!" said he.
They drank nectar from a wheeled buffet, drank it eagerly, in thirsty gulps, and sighed with pleasure and relief, and Gerald threw down a coin, refusing change with a lord's gesture.
