And they answered: "In the deep sea-caves By the sounding shore, In the dashing waves When the wild storms roar, In her cold green bowers In the northern fiords, She lurks and she glowers, She grasps and she hoards, And she spreads her strong net for her prey."
And the fire glowers and roars through its bars at him with the scorn that a wild beast must needs have for a tame one. 'You are free, it rages, 'and yet you do not spring at that man's throat and tear him limb from limb and make a meal of him!
"You will excuse me, Monsieur," he said, addressing Lacheneur, "for presenting my request in such a manner, and at such a time.

They were compelled to kill the rat themselves, while Possum, when all was over, lay down and had a fit. Now Mr. Pike abhors a coward, and his disgust with Possum is profound. He no longer plays with the puppy, nor even speaks to him, and, whenever he passes him on the deck, glowers sourly at him.

He makes me a sign to look, and lifts the veil with a long rod. And suddenly, out of the blackness of some mysterious profundity masked by that sombre curtain, there glowers upon me an apparition at the sight of which I involuntarily start back a monstrosity exceeding all anticipation a Face. A Face tremendous, menacing, frightful, dull red, as with the redness of heated iron cooling into grey.

"I will watch to-night, while you get some sleep." The young man springs up, glowers at his father, scowls, and then smiles consent.
Keen-eyed and hook-nosed, like a bird of prey, she glowers from the corner of crowded ball-rooms upon the unconscious heir, hunts him untiringly from house to house, marries him remorselessly to her eldest daughter, and then never loses sight of him till his spirit is broken, his old friends discarded, and his segar-case thrown away.
