Instantly my eyes turned to Ethne's throat, and there I saw deep, horrible marks, like the marks of a tiger's fangs; but, thank God, they had not penetrated far enough to do any serious injury! My uncle's shot had come just in time to save her. "Merely fainted, hasn't she?" he asked anxiously. I nodded. My relief at finding this was so, was too great for words. "Heaven be praised!"
I have imagination; I will devise expedients for you. What if one were to ask her pardon from the king?" "Of Louis XI.! A pardon!" "Why not?" "To take the tiger's bone from him!" Gringoire began to seek fresh expedients. "Well, stay! Shall I address to the midwives a request accompanied by the declaration that the girl is with child!" This made the priest's hollow eye flash.
It was lucky for that Tartar of a wife of his that she hook'd it, or he'd soon have put a stop to her sleep-walking. There's no such wide difference between a man and a tiger, after all. The tiger's a decent fellow enough till he has tasted human blood; but when once he has, Lord save the country-side from the jaws of the man-eater!" "For Heaven's sake let us waste no time in talk!"
Never before had he felt an emotion exactly like this, except once, when in India he and a friend had lain in wait for a man-eating tiger, in the night, at the tiger's drinking place.
With a quick movement she pressed her palms against her veil upon her ears to shut out the sound of his words. She rocked herself a little, as though the pain were almost greater than she could bear.

With the nail-like grip on her arm, and the low, savage tones in her ears, and the blazing eyes like a tiger's, inflamed with the lust of murder above her, the girl felt sick and half-fainting with fear and misery. "He did not take me. I was always faithful, Murad. I love you. I " she stammered.
The tiger only kills his food or his enemies; you not only kill both, but you kill one animal to make gravy for another! The tiger is less bloodthirsty than the Christian!" "I don't know how much of that tirade is meant to be serious; but to waive the question of the tiger's morality, do you really I will not say sympathize, but justify Robespierre, Dominic, St.
Cutting open the tiger. Native idea about the liver of the tiger. Signs of a tiger's presence in the jungle. Vultures. Do they scent their quarry or view it? A vulture carrion feast.

That, too, I saw, and while I do not wish for the triumph of France it was thrilling to see but one and a girl defying so many strong men." "I wish I had been there to see," murmured John. "What did you say?" asked Olga. "That only a very brave woman could have done such a thing." "She is brave. She does not fear any of them, and the woman Suzanne with her has a tiger's temper."
At this retort the Tiger's courage oozed away; and he did not dare to go any nearer; but he called out "Well, if I am to be your dinner, come and catch me:" and the Raja called out "If I am to be your dinner, come and catch me."
