She would soon leave them out of sight, unless it should prove she was disabled by some of the shots. All would have gone well but for the appearance of a new danger of which he did not dream. Suddenly Queenie emitted her faint, familiar whinny, and swerved to the left. She had scented a new peril.
The stable was very dark within, but he knew where to find the pony that he always rode, and the saddle and bridle which he always used, without needing to see. And the pony knew him, too, for all the darkness, and welcomed him with a friendly whinny which said so as plainly as words.
Above the angry bellow of the thirsty herd the men strained their ears again and again for this familiar sound of life, but there was nothing but the bellowing of the cattle, the trampling of their hoofs, and sometimes the long, squealing whinny of a horse as he threw back his head in seeming demand to know the justice of this thing.
If Alessandro whispered, he, Baba, would whisper back; and it was little more than a whispered whinny which he gave, as he trotted quickly to the fence, and put his nose to Alessandro's face, rubbing and kissing and giving soft whinnying sighs. "Hush! hush! Baba," whispered Alessandro, as if he were speaking to a human being.
I could see him staring down at me, as he bent forward to pat his horse's neck. I bent my head down so that my face was hidden in the grass. The stranger did not see me. I am quite sure that he did not see me. He turned his horse back along the road for a few snorting paces. Then with a sounding slap on his shoulder he drove him at a fast pace along the turf towards me. I heard the brute whinny.
For a moment all that he could do was cling to the swaying animal And when the horse felt the extra weight drop upon him he bounded forward like a stag uttering a shrill whinny of fear. For a fleeting moment the lad thought of the peril of his position. But when he recalled that the lives of two women depended upon him, he became active.
Whinny came out from the kitchen door in corduroy trousers, much stained with soil, and grey shirt wiping his mouth with the back of his hand after a hearty dinner and went to the barn for his midday sleep before he went again to the sowing.
The whinny of a horse upon the hillside, the low cry of a young cow, the bleat of a sheep, all added to his feeling of dread, until the sweat streamed down his body, as he swung along the moor. At last he came to a little village, about six miles from Lowwood, and, entering the inn, he called for a supply of whisky.
Taking off the wet saddle and the soaked, half-frozen blanket, he laid them on the ground. He patted Toby as he did this, and Toby's responsive whinny said it was all right, just as plain as if he had been able to talk.
A cruel blow of his spurred heel brought the beast almost to its knees with a whinny of pain. Then it jumped high in the air, and once more began its furious race with this mysterious and horrible being that clung so tenaciously to his back.
