With horror-stricken eyes the maiden and the knight saw the wave swoop down upon the noble steed, which had been vainly struggling in the water. Then slowly once more the wave reared itself higher and higher yet above the heads of the two who watched and waited until they too should be for ever buried beneath the waters. But ere the great white wave rolled down upon them, they were saved.
An access of furious strength came to him; he shook himself free; the knife gleamed in the air, descended.... He drew it from the bosom into which he had plunged it, and as Haward caught her in his arms, who would else have sunk to the floor, the half-breed burst through the horror-stricken throng, brandishing the red blade and loudly speaking in the tongue of the Monacans.
The old major looking on says in a voice vibrating with respect: "He died like a true Hungarian singing the Rakoczy march." He returns from the war hopelessly disfigured. In hospital his face has been remade for him by means of a number of plastic operations. But when he looks at himself in the glass he is horror-stricken. No one in the village recognises him.
Jeanne!" cried the horror-stricken woman. "That is wicked, and the good God hears you." The girl's cheeks were scarlet and her eyes flashed like points of flame. They were not black, but of the darkest blue, with strange, steely lights in them that flashed and sparkled when she was roused in temper, which was often.
When Rose had seen them, they had no doubt been on their way to Liverpool. It seemed to be Herbert's horror-stricken look that first showed his sister the enormity of what she had done, and when she pleaded 'for your sake, he made such a fierce sound of disgust, that she only durst add further, 'Oh, Herbert, you will not tell? 'Not find him? he thundered. 'No, no; I didn't mean that!
When Captain Hansen lighted the fuse and hooked the fish hook into the tail end of a native's loin cloth, that native was smitten with so an ardent a desire for the shore that he forgot to shed the loin cloth. He started for'ard, the fuse sizzling and spluttering at his rear, the natives in his path taking headers over the barbed wire at every jump. Bertie was horror-stricken.
Reginald, whose agility was greater than his courage, danced about on the tips of his toes, and succeeded in planting a tap or two on Compton's cheek. Compton smarted under these, and presently, in following his antagonist, who fought like a shadow, he saw Ruperta and her mother looking horror-stricken over the palings.
"What was that?" asked Dorothy, white to the lips. "They have found one of the negroes," I answered, as calmly as I could. "They ran away, and must have hidden somewhere in the house." We sat listening, the women pale and horror-stricken, and even Brightson and I no little moved.
Only a word, hoarse and horror-stricken, was left quivering on the night breeze by this accursed, whom the gods, intent upon his ruin, had early in the day, at his first sight of Ariel, in good truth, made mad: "MURDER!" "Can I help you brush off, Judge?" asked Eskew, rising painfully.
"Who has?" demanded Laura. "He. That man what co-comed here," choked the little fellow. "What a pity! I'm awfully sorry," Laura pursued, soothingly. "The poor little puppies." "Ye-yes. Pa s-said I should chop 'em off myself!" concluded Master Tommy in a burst of anger. "My goodness me!" gasped Jess, horror-stricken. "Will you hear that boy talk? He's a perfect little savage."
