|
Joan looked triumphantly at Sheldon who bowed |
|
Philip had delivered himself through the maelstrom |
|
We don't see ourselves as foolish |
|
It was my idea to a tee |
|
This sound did not disturb the hush and awe of the place |
|
Well did they eat |
|
And so early in the voyage too |
|
It's merely the simple superlative |
|
He was worth nothing to the world |
|
The Portuguese boy passed the Hawaiian |
|
It was over when he made his way through the ring of spectators |
|
It happened to him at the Gallina Society in Oakland one afternoon |
|
Nobody knew his history they of the Junta least of all |
|
Give them their choice between a fine or an official whipping |
|
All this day Gregson remained in the cabin |
|
White Leghorns said Missus Mortimer |
|
Why should a fellow throw up the sponge after the first round |
|
He chuckled as he pulled out his pipe and began filling it |
|
Her gray eyes were flashing and her lips were quivering |
|
Two days ago Jeanne learned where her father's men were hiding |
|
He was the soul of devotion to his employers |
|
No I did not fall among thieves |
|
But if Pierre didn't return until tomorrow |
|
I learned it myself in English ships |
|
He had no excuse for the feelings which were aroused in him |
|
But he no longer cared quite so much for that form of diversion |
|
I don't know why you're here at all |
|
It issued a rate of forty two dollars a car on charcoal |
|
A low bush whipped him in the face and left no sting |
|
And Tom King patiently endured |
|
I also understand that similar branch organizations have made their appearance in Europe |
|
The time was considered auspicious |
|
At times I wondered where Sir Archibald got his style |
|
Do you know that you are shaking my confidence in you |
|
Get down and dig in |
|
I'd say there was going to be a glorious scrap |
|
Gad do I remember it |
|
Your face is red with blood |
|
They continued valiantly to lie but the truth continued to outrun them |
|
Down through the perfume weighted air fluttered the snowy fluffs of the cottonwoods |
|
I'll see to poor Hughie |
|
They were following the shore of a lake |
|
I use great trouble advisedly |
|
He turned sharply and faced Gregson across the table |
|
These were merely stout sticks an inch or so in diameter |
|
Does that look good |
|
Halfway around the track one donkey got into an argument with its rider |
|
We had been chased by them ourselves more than once |
|
A combination of Canadian capital quickly organized and petitioned for the same privileges |
|
When I can't see beauty in woman I want to die |
|
And the big Persian knew of his existence before he did of hers |
|
It was strap hangers that will keep us from going under |
|
The mob came on but it could not advance |
|
The woman in you is only incidental accidental and irrelevant |
|
With these arguments he convinced himself that he should go on alone |
|
One guess will do Ernest retorted |
|
We saw your light and thought you wouldn't mind a call |
|
He is too keenly intelligent too sharply sensitive successfully to endure |
|
Then it is as I said Womble announced with finality |
|
I have seen myself that one man contemplated by Pascal's philosophic eye |
|
Also a fellow Senator Chauncey Depew said |
|
What was the object of your little sensation |
|
Beyond refusing to sell us food they left us to ourselves |
|
Typhoid did I tell you |
|
My right foot feels like that of a Chinese debutante |
|
Nimrod replied with a slight manifestation of sensitiveness |
|
Just the same I'd sooner be myself than have book indigestion |
|
In spite of their absurdity the words affected Philip curiously |
|
Jacob Brinker who was his road mate brought the news |
|
Instead he joined her and they ate like two hungry children |
|
Perhaps she had already met her fate a little deeper in the forest |
|
The land exchanged its austere robes for the garb of a smiling wanton |
|
I had faith in them |
|
The last one I knew was an overseer |
|
He had a big chimpanzee that was a winner |
|
They are greatly delighted with anything that is bright or giveth a sound |
|
Perrault found one with head buried in the grub box |
|
The Portuguese boy crawled nearer and nearer |
|
Fifty yards ahead of her were the first of the rocks |
|
Here we allow our solicitors to look after our legal work |
|
The voyage was our idea of a good time |
|
The very opposite is true they are discouraged vagabonds |
|
They ate dinner at the fifth and rested for two hours |
|
Too much he told me with ominous rolling head |
|
The Claudine was leaving next morning for Honolulu |
|
But ever his gaze returned to that Crouched Venus on the piano |
|
Also she wouldn't walk |
|
Surely I will excuse you she cried |
|
Ahead of them they saw a glimmer of sunshine |
|
Your father's fifth command he nodded |
|
If I ever needed a fighter in my life I need one now |
|
The lines were now very taut |
|
Soon shall it be thrust back from off prostrate humanity |
|
All operations have been carried on from Montreal and Toronto |
|
But he didn't broach it preferring to mature it carefully |
|
It is not an attempt to smash the market |
|
How old are you mother |
|
Together they ate the rabbit |
|
He will knock you off a few sticks in no time |
|
Stand off butcher and baker and all the rest |
|
No it's a palace wherein there are many servants |
|
Dennin's hands were released long enough for him to sign the document |
|
Cameron looked at his hands with their long sinewy fingers |
|
He was smooth shaven and his hair and eyes were black |
|
She was even more beautiful than when I saw her before |
|
They likewise are disinclined to being eaten |
|
Dig in you're sure good was Daylight's answer |
|
He will never do a tap of work the whole Voyage |
|
They have won popular sentiment through the newspapers |
|
The history of the eighteenth century is written Ernest prompted |
|
And after the bath a shave would not be bad |
|
There was no law on the Yukon save what they made for themselves |
|
Your face was the personification of duplicity |
|
It's a Yankee Joan cried |
|
So far as flags were concerned they were beyond all jurisdiction |
|
It took him half an hour to reach the edge of it |
|
I play that choice wide open to win |
|
He had comparatively no advantages at first |
|
The fighting had now become intermittent |
|
There's too much of the schoolboy in me |
|
So cheer up and give us your paw |
|
I did not think you would be so early |
|
To her the bridge was tambo which is the native for taboo |
|
He saw Jeanne falter for a moment |
|
Shooting pains passed like flashes of electricity through his body |
|
Shorty turned to their employers |
|
Then came my boy code |
|
This state of mind comes of an undue prominence of the ego |
|
It resembled tea less than lager beer resembles champagne |
|
There's no chivalry no quarter shown in this fight |
|
He it was that lived to found the family of the Patino |
|
His hand shot out and clutched Crooked Leg by the neck |
|
I'm playing a single hand in what looks like a losing game |
|
To these he gave castor oil |
|
And that was the last of Francois and Perrault |
|
My name's Ferguson |
|
He was sure now of but few things |
|
And as never before he was ready to obey |
|
I can't go elsewhere by your own account |
|
Would you be satisfied with that one hundredth part of me |
|
It was introduced by Representative Dick of Ohio |
|
Her words sent a strange chill through Philip |
|
Red Eye never committed a more outrageous deed |
|
Let us talk it over and find a way out |
|
He glanced down at her helplessly and moistened his lips |
|
He obeyed the pressure of her hand |
|
Straight out they swam their heads growing smaller and smaller |
|
He plodded on for half an hour when the hallucination arose again |
|
Her beautiful hair was done up in shining coils |
|
In his anxiety and solicitude and love they did not count |
|
He will follow us soon |
|
She is essentially the life giving life conserving female of the species |
|
That is what distinguishes all of us from the lower animals |
|
They are not regular oyster pirates Nicholas continued |
|
They robbed me a few years later |
|
But why continue the tirade for tirade it was |
|
I graduated last of my class |
|
They obeyed him and went here and there at his commands |
|
But Martin smiled a superior smile |
|
They are to attack your camp tomorrow night |
|
Thought I and a worthy fool he proved |
|
I was still weak from my prolonged immersion |
|
It does was her audacious answer |
|
At the same time spears and arrows began to fall among the invaders |
|
It lasted as a deterrent for two days |
|
Do you value your hide |
|
The hunters were still arguing and roaring like some semi human amphibious breed |
|
Thirty pounds said the captain with finality |
|
They ran the canoe in and climbed the high earth bank |
|
They were deep in the primeval forest |
|
They laughed like two happy children |
|
He cried in such genuine dismay that she broke into hearty laughter |
|
It would help to tide me along until I got steady employment |
|
I may manage to freight a cargo back as well |
|
Here in the midmorning the first casualty occurred |
|
Philip began to feel that he had foolishly overestimated his strength |
|
Enters now the psychology of the situation |
|
They handled two men already both grub thieves |
|
At that moment I got the impression that she was willowy |
|
The stout wood was crushed like an eggshell |
|
What's that grub thief got to do with it |
|
In her haste to get away she had forgotten these things |
|
Goodbye Pierre he shouted |
|
We leave the eventuality to time and law |
|
He changed his seat for a steamer reclining chair |
|
He turned the map to Gregson pointing with his finger |
|
He bit his tongue and cursed himself at the fresh break |
|
What the flaming |
|
Philip produced a couple of cigars and took a chair opposite him |
|
Everything was working smoothly better than I had expected |
|
He heard a sound which brought him quickly into consciousness of day |
|
At sea Tuesday March seventeenth nineteen o eight |
|
Nevertheless we found ourselves once more in the high seat of abundance |
|
Besides he was paid one case of tobacco per head |
|
Each improvement makes the value of everything else pump up |
|
Two of the Folk were already up |
|
He had been foiled in his attempt to escape |
|
How old are you daddy |
|
I was Hump cabin boy on the schooner Ghost |
|
But a strange thing happened |
|
Also she has forbidden them smoking their pipes in the after room |
|
Don't you see I'm chewing this thing in two |
|
Lord but I'm glad to see you again Phil |
|
Captain West may be a Samurai but he is also human |
|
The sharp voice of Wolf Larsen aroused me |
|
Not at this particular case Tom apologized Whittemore |
|
In what bucolic school of fence he had been taught was beyond imagining |
|
I want to die in it |
|
But such divergence of opinion would constitute no menace to society |
|
He is a candidate rising from the serf class to our class |
|
Now please give a plain statement of what occurred |
|
I only read the quotations |
|
He made no reply as he waited for Whittemore to continue |
|
Soaked in seawater they offset the heat rays |
|
It is the fire partly she said |
|
There is that magnificent Bob eating his head off in the stable |
|
See the length of the body and that elongated neck |
|
He can care for himself |
|
And there was Ethel Baird whom also you must remember |
|
There are no kiddies and half grown youths among them |
|
We who have endured so much surely can endure a little more |
|
What Pascal glimpsed with the vision of a seer I have lived |
|
Christmas is an easy problem compared with a Polynesian giving feast |
|
And he was filled with a strange and foreboding fear |
|
But there came no promise from the bow of the canoe |
|
We threaten to be of the one mind before the voyage is completed |
|
There weren't any missions and he was the man to know |
|
Some of the smaller veins had doubtless been ruptured |
|
And then steadily he began to chew |
|
O'Brien took off his coat and bared his right arm |
|
He had been so easy |
|
The eastern heavens were equally spectacular |
|
Oolong was two hundred and fifty miles from the nearest land |
|
Some one had thrust a large sheath knife into his hand |
|
The farmer works the soil and produces grain |
|
To his surprise her answer was flat and uncompromising |
|
The women they carried away with them to the Big Valley |
|
Eli Harding asked as Shunk started to follow |
|
Oh it's just a novel a love story |
|
The apron string loomed near and he shied like an unbroken colt |
|
Whiz zip bang Lop Ear screamed with sudden anguish |
|
You were making them talk shop Ruth charged him |
|
It was the rendezvous of those who were striving to work his ruin |
|
Nor would it thaw out his hands and feet |
|
There is more behind this than a mere university ideal |
|
No man ate of the seal meat or the oil |
|
Again he had done the big thing |
|
He was manifestly distressed by my coming |
|
You used to joy ride like the very devil |
|
Ask him I laughed then turned to Pasquini |
|
Thorpe and his men were to destroy this camp and kill you |
|
A burst of laughter was his reward |
|
I arose obediently and went down the beach |
|
The reorganization of these countries took the form of revolution |
|
Not a wheel moved in his empire |
|
For a time the exciting thrill of his adventure was gone |
|
Of course much grumbling went on and little outbursts were continually occurring |
|
Broken Tooth yelled with fright and pain |
|
One great drawback to farming in California is our long dry summer |
|
Yea so are all the lesser animals of today clean |
|
Think of investing in such an adventure |
|
Before Philip could recover him Jeanne's startled guards were upon him |
|
He waded into the edge of the water and began scrubbing himself |
|
He was a head shorter than his companion of almost delicate physique |
|
The weeks had gone by and no overt acts had been attempted |
|
He bore no grudges and had few enemies |
|
Wada Louis and the steward are servants of Asiatic breed |
|
He did not believe in the burning of daylight for such a luxury |
|
His eyes smiled truth at him as he came up the bank |
|
To my surprise he began to show actual enthusiasm in my favor |
|
And as we hurried up town Joe Goose explained |
|
Ernest saw in the affair the most sinister import |
|
For a full minute the two men stared into each other's face |
|
Your price my son is just about thirty per week |
|
Society is shaken to its foundations |
|
MacDougall my engineer believes it |
|
The moon had already begun its westward decline |
|
In a way he is my protege |
|
He looked like one who had passed through an uncomfortable hour or two |
|
Now these things had been struck dead within him |
|
The boy threw back his head with pride |
|
She had been thoroughly and efficiently mauled |
|
It is dog eat dog and you ate them up |
|
Philip snatched at the letter which Gregson held out to him |
|
And twenty men could hold it with spears and arrows |
|
Also there was awe in their faces |
|
A month in Australia would finish me |
|
Though the aurora still flamed another day had begun |
|
He was just bursting with joy joy over what |
|
Like a flash he launched himself into the feathered mass of the owl |
|
It was a superb picture |
|
Now it was missing from the wall |
|
He leapt again and the club caught him once more |
|
But there was also talk of witchcraft in the village |
|
Accept a father's blessing and with it this |
|
He had heard always how he was the lover of the Princess Naomi |
|
Famine had been my great ally |
|
In the Bohemian Club of San Francisco there are some crack sailors |
|
A shadow was creeping over Pierre's eyes |
|
There was pride and strength the ring of triumph in his voice |
|
For a full minute he crouched and listened |
|
That Longfellow chap most likely had written countless books of poetry |
|
The sixth day he spent in the cabin with Gregson |
|
We never made another migration |
|
In it was the joy of life |
|
Peace be unto you and grace before the Lord |
|
You see we were teaching ourselves |
|
But we were without this momentum |
|
After all it was simply a mistake in judgment |
|
Nowhere in the North is the soil so prolific |
|
This is my fifth voyage |
|
And now behold the perversity of things |
|
Her own betrayal of herself was like tonic to Philip |
|
I have long noted your thirst unquenchable |
|
They edged nearer and stood shoulder to shoulder facing their world |
|
They could not continue their method of producing surpluses |
|
He moved away as quietly as he had come |
|
Matthewson who's this bookkeeper Rogers |
|
Here he got a fresh thrill |
|
Nope not the slightest idea |
|
Three oilers and a fourth engineer was his greeting |
|
In moments of mental energy Philip was restless |
|
He was an athlete and a giant |
|
How much was it |
|
I can't argue with you and you know that |
|
I have to be careful of them as they tear very easily |
|
I wish you were more adaptable Joan retorted |
|
It won't be for sale |
|
Yet in accordance with Ernest's test of truth it worked |
|
Only it is so wonderful so almost impossible to believe |
|
Jeanne and Pierre both gazed toward the great rock |
|
He began to follow the footprints of the dog |
|
Joan cried with shining eyes |
|
He stopped and Philip nodded at the horrified question in his eyes |
|
Already he had begun borrowing from the banks |
|
His blood grew hot with rage at the thought |
|
He understood the meaning of the look |
|
You read the quotations in today's paper |
|
But he reconciled himself to it by an act of faith |
|
The boy O'Brien was specially maltreated |
|
She'd make a good wife for the cashier |
|
What if Jeanne failed him |
|
His previous wives had never lived long enough to bear him children |
|
Hardly were our plans made public before we were met by powerful opposition |
|
Yes sir I corrected |
|
M'Coy found a stifling poisonous atmosphere in the pent cabin |
|
The ship should be in within a week or ten days |
|
I tell you I am disgusted with this adventure tomfoolery and rot |
|
He wondered too where Roscoe was |
|
At first his progress was slow and erratic |
|
Idealism led him to philosophic anarchy and his family threw him off |
|
Their love burned with increasing brightness |
|
Of course that is uninteresting she continued |
|
Next to them the Canada jays were most persistent |
|
This is a common experience with all of us |
|
Poor little Crooked Leg was terribly scared |
|
The discovery seemed to have been made on the spur of the moment |
|
Ah indeed |
|
Something that Whittemore had not yet said thrilled him |
|
And the Eurasian Chinese Englishman bowed himself away |
|
I have no idea replied Philip |
|
It was our river emerging like ourselves from the great swamp |
|
Saxon waited for she knew a fresh idea had struck Billy |
|
A maddening joy pounded in his brain |
|
Change chairs Daylight commanded |
|
He was wounded in the arm |
|
He was trying to pass a apron string around him |
|
There's the hitch replied Thorpe rolling a cigarette |
|
He was the leader and Tudor was his lieutenant |
|
Saxon nodded and the boy frowned |
|
Yield yourself to the waters that are ripping and tearing at you |
|
His slim hands gripped the edges of the table |
|
All eyes however were staring at him in certitude of expectancy |
|
Therefore hurrah for the game |
|
He had peeled off his shirt and was wildly waving it |
|
That was why I am am rattled he laughed |
|
Burnt out like the crater of a volcano |
|
The emotion which she had suppressed burst forth now in a choking sob |
|
Philip bent lower and stared into the face of the dead man |
|
Ah it was sweet in my ears |
|
That's what Carnegie did |
|
Her achievements with cocoanuts were a revelation |
|
It was not Red Eye's way to forego revenge so easily |
|
OW a wild dog he growled |
|
I can see that knife now |
|
Then again Tudor had such an irritating way about him |
|
You should have seen them when they heard me spitting Chinook |
|
In a flash he was on his feet facing him |
|
I had forgotten their existence |
|
It was a miracle and I owe you my life |
|
There were orange green gold green and a copper green |
|
He had barely entered this when he saw the glow of a fire |
|
Jerry was so secure in his nook that he did not roll away |
|
It was a large canoe |
|
How valiantly I went at it that first day |
|
He unfolded a long typewritten letter and handed it to Gregson |
|
At Lake Linderman I had one canoe very good Peterborough canoe |
|
I like to speculate upon the glorious future of man |
|
They are big trees and require plenty of room |
|
Both Johnny and his mother shuffled their feet as they walked |
|
The steward has just tendered me a respectful bit of advice |
|
For the twentieth time that evening the two men shook hands |
|
Very early in my life I separated from my mother |
|
Then he stepped back with a low cry of pleasure |
|
Whatever he guessed he locked away in the taboo room of Naomi |
|
The sunsets grow more bizarre and spectacular off this coast of the Argentine |
|
But this little defect did not worry him |
|
I was not to cry out in the face of fear |
|
Never so strange a prophet came up to Jerusalem |
|
He placed his paw on one and its movements were accelerated |
|
Now our figuring was all right |
|
The issue was not in doubt |
|
Is that Pat Hanrahan's mug looking hungry and willing |
|
Isaac Ford the austere soldier of the Lord the old hypocrite |
|
There's a big English general right now whose name is Roberts |
|
Any average young fellow can teach himself in a week |
|
Captain Doane's orders were swiftly obeyed |
|
Gregson was asleep when he reentered the cabin |
|
He boiled himself some coffee and sat down to wait |
|
I want my men to work by themselves |
|
We were now good friends |
|
Man could not conquer them |
|
It was not exactly a deportation |
|
His beady black eyes saw bargains where other men saw bankruptcy |
|
The promoter's eyes were heavy with little puffy bags under them |
|
It was a curious coincidence |
|
We must give ourselves and not our money alone |
|
Last night he showed all the symptoms of coming down with pneumonia |
|
They only had a little thirty thousand dollar fire |
|
Her mouth opened but instead of speaking she drew a long sigh |
|
Illuminating oil was becoming all profit |
|
Miss Brodie's smile was slightly sarcastic |
|
At sea Monday March sixteenth nineteen o eight |
|
Dunham can your boy go along with Jesse |
|
From my earliest recollection my sleep was a period of terror |
|
Yes sir he answered with cheerful alacrity |
|
Their forces were already moving into the north country |
|
I'll be out of my head in fifteen minutes |
|
But they make the mistake of ignoring their own duality |
|
I obeyed and a minute or two later they stood before him |
|
It seemed nearer to him since he had seen and talked with Gregson |
|
Daylight found himself charmed and made curious by the little man |
|
But life is worth more than cash she argued |
|
Such men believe when they come together |
|
Ah it's growing dark and darker |
|
By this time Charley was as enraged as the Greek |
|
We are both children together |
|
If you only could know how I thank you |
|
Such an act was in direct violation of the laws of the land |
|
Down there the earth was already swelling with life |
|
You can take a vacation on pay |
|
I pulled suddenly with all my might |
|
Points of view new ideas life |
|
He had been born with this endowment |
|
We will have to watch our chances |
|
I'm writing these lines in Honolulu Hawaii |
|
From now on we're pals |
|
Now Irvine was a man of impulse a poet |
|
In the crib the baby sat up and began to prattle |
|
His infernal chattering worries me even now as I think of it |
|
She was built primarily to sail |
|
I came for information more out of curiosity than anything else |
|
He was fond of quoting a fragment from a certain poem |
|
His slim fingers closed like steel about Philip's |
|
Then and at supper he tried to fathom her |
|
It was the proposition that started the big idea in Daughtry's mind |
|
It was simple in its way and no virtue of his |
|
But it won't continue she said with easy confidence |
|
They were less stooped than we less springy in their movements |
|
The hyena proceeded to dine |
|
And each year something happened and I did not go |
|
I want to know how all this is possible |
|
We are cooking on the coal stove and on the oil burners |
|
He would destroy all things that are fixed |
|
The pain from my hurt knee was agonizing |
|
Shall I carry you |
|
Mister McVeigh told me about him |
|
He lifted his eyes and a strange cry burst from his lips |
|
He was an enthusiast and a desert dweller |
|
Don't you see I hate you |
|
How does your wager look now |
|
Again the girls applauded and Missus Hall cried |
|
It was unobtrusive yet it was there |
|
Besides had he not whipped the big owl in the forest |
|
He told himself that as he washed himself and groomed his disheveled clothes |
|
I saw it when she rolled |
|
Who the devil gave it to you to be judge and jury |
|
Seventeen no eighteen days ago |
|
The boy at the wheel lost his head |
|
It's that much junk |
|
A wildly exciting time was his during the week preceding Thursday the eighteenth |
|
A trickle of fresh blood ran over his face |
|
Manuel had one besetting sin |
|
Such things in her brain were like so many oaths on her lips |
|
At once would be instituted a dozen cooperative commonwealth states |
|
The twenty ninth very foggy |
|
She was sleeping under his protection as sweetly as a child |
|
You have associated with some of these men |
|
She was his now forever |
|
Suddenly his fingers closed tightly over the handkerchief |
|
I'm sure going along with you all Elijah |
|
With my strength I slammed it full into Red Eye's face |
|
For a few moments he ate in silence |
|
What an excited whispering and conferring took place |
|
The night was calm and snowy |
|
Philip thrust himself against it and entered |
|
We could throw stones with our feet |
|
I never saw anything like her in my life |
|
McVeigh when he returns from a trip to Honolulu |
|
Thus was momentum gained in the Younger World |
|
I noticed blood spouting from Kerfoot left hand |
|
But there was something even more startling than this resemblance |
|
Its diameter was not more than two hundred yards |
|
Bill lingered contemplating his work with artistic appreciation |
|
My age in years is twenty two |
|
That's why its boundaries are all gouged and jagged |
|
It was his intention to return to Eileen and her father |
|
Now you're coming down to business Phil he exclaimed |
|
If I meet her again I shall apologize said Eileen |
|
You fired me out of your house in short |
|
Between the rush of the cascades streaks of rust showed everywhere |
|
He deluged me overwhelmed me with argument |
|
So was Packard's finish suicide |
|
Daughtry elaborated on the counting trick by bringing Cocky along |
|
The singing voice approached rapidly |
|
I was brought up the way most girls in Hawaii are brought up |
|
There was something pathetic in the girl's attitude now |
|
Then it was that a strange thing happened |
|
The big eyed clucking moose birds were most annoying |
|
And their chief virtue lies in that they will never wear out |
|
Ten minutes had not elapsed since he had dropped the handkerchief |
|
We must achieve our own salvation |
|
If I was out of the game it would be easily made |
|
With them were Indians also three other men |
|
But here amongst ourselves let us speak out |
|
I saw Mister Pike nod his head grimly and sarcastically |
|
His face was streaming with blood |
|
When I came to I was waving my hat and murmuring ecstatically |
|
The Fire Men wore animal skins around their waists and across their shoulders |
|
Gregson had seated himself under the lamp and was sharpening a pencil |
|
One by one the boys were captured |
|
The life there was healthful and athletic but too juvenile |
|
You're a devil for fighting and will surely win |
|
She turned fearing that Jacques might see what was in her face |
|
At first he puzzled over something untoward he was sure had happened |
|
Here the explosion of mirth drowned him out |
|
He was an amphibian and a mountaineer |
|
He looked at the handkerchief more closely |
|
Behind him lay the thousand years long road across all Siberia and Russia |
|
There is another virtue in these bulkheads |
|
Whitefish Gregson whitefish and trout |
|
It fairly clubbed me into recognizing it |
|
Meanwhile I will go out to breathe a spell |
|
On occasion on this traverse the Cape Verde Islands are raised |
|
The scents of strange vegetation blew off the tropic land |
|
It would give me nervous prostration |
|
Why the average review is more nauseating than cod liver oil |
|
He seized Gregson by the arm and led him to the door |
|
Wash your hands of me |
|
But Johannes could and did |
|
That's where they cut off the Scottish Chiefs and killed all hands |
|
Anyway no one saw her like that |
|
But to culture the Revolution thus far had exhausted the Junta |
|
Sandel would never become a world champion |
|
We would not spend another such night |
|
Now you understand |
|
I tried to read George Moore last night and was dreadfully bored |
|
O'Brien emitted a shriek that sank swiftly to a gurgling sob |
|
A sinewy hand dripping with water was clutching the rail |
|
Enjoy it he did but principally for Steward's sake |
|
It was my reports from the north which chiefly induced people to buy |
|
Bassett was a fastidious man |
|
In the matter of curry she is a sheer genius |
|
There followed a roar and shook the earth |
|
New idea he volunteered brand new idea |
|
Wonder if he's a lion dog Charles suggested |
|
And MacDougall was beyond the trail with three weeks to spare |
|
Without them he could not run his empire |
|
About him everywhere were the evidences of luxury and of age |
|
The butchers and meat cutters refused to handle meat destined for unfair restaurants |
|
Now have you got anything to say against me Mister Philip |
|
She had died from cold and starvation |
|
In short my joyous individualism was dominated by the orthodox bourgeois ethics |
|
It was a temptation but he resisted it |
|
Knowing him I review the old Scandinavian myths with clearer understanding |
|
This is eighteen eighty |
|
On the far corner of the compound fence a hawk brooded |
|
Why he's bought forty pounds of goods from you already |
|
Crickets began to chirp and more geese and ducks flew overhead |
|
Then you can arrange yourself comfortably among these robes in the bow |
|
Mab she said |
|
It seems like a strange pointing of the hand of God |
|
The girl faced him her eyes shining with sudden fear |
|
Two years ago I gave up civilization for this |
|
He cried and swung the club wildly |
|
For the rest he was a mere automaton |
|
Pearce's little eyes were fixed on him shrewdly |
|
But how are you going to do it |
|
I'm going to surprise father and you will go with Pierre |
|
Not till the twentieth of May did the river break |
|
There has been a change she interrupted him |
|
Only the chance sound had led him to observe them |
|
I'll tell you the librarian said with a brightening face |
|
You live on an income which your father earned |
|
But there was no longer the mother yearning in his heart |
|
To my dearest and always appreciated friend I submit myself |
|
Very few people knew of the existence of this law |
|
Within himself he called it no longer his own |
|
It's a good property and worth more than that |
|
It is very plausible to such people a most convincing hypothesis |
|
He spat it out like so much venom |
|
You must sleep he urged |
|
A moment before he was intoxicated by a joy that was almost madness |
|
Also I want information |
|
A dead man is of no use on a plantation |
|
Without discussion it was the agents provocateurs who caused the Peasant Revolt |
|
Suppose you saw me at work through the window |
|
You yellow giant thing of the frost |
|
Production is doubling and quadrupling upon itself |
|
Yes and no sir was the slow reply |
|
Harrison is still my chauffeur |
|
Something vastly more thrilling had come into it now |
|
The planters are already considering the matter |
|
What if she didn't come to the rock |
|
The President of the United States was his friend |
|
They just lay off in the bush and plugged away |
|
Exciting times are the lot of the fish patrol |
|
And you always want to see it in the superlative degree |
|
Scarcely had he uttered the name when Pierre's closing eyes shot open |
|
Philip knew that she was not an Indian |
|
It was a gigantic inadequacy |
|
The questions may have come vaguely in his mind |
|
Out of his eighteen hundred he laid aside sixteen hundred each year |
|
They wouldn't be sweeping a big vessel like the Martha |
|
Does the old boy often go off at half cock that way |
|
Well there are better men in Hawaii that's all |
|
I just do appreciate it without being able to express my feelings |
|
A scarlet loincloth |
|
Blind with rage he darted in |
|
His eyes never took themselves for an instant from his companion's face |
|
I was about to do this when cooler judgment prevailed |
|
We got few vegetables and fruits and became fish eaters |
|
That's the sub foreman explained Thorpe |
|
The next thing to watch out for is bed sores |
|
I I beg pardon he drawled |
|
And now put yourself in my place for a moment |
|
The regret in his voice was provocative of a second burst of laughter |
|
I remembered the red wine of the Italian rancho and shuddered inwardly |
|
Philip took a step toward Gregson half determined to awaken him |
|
Well I'll be plumb gosh darned |
|
Lots of men take women buggy riding |
|
He considered the victory already his and stepped forward to the meat |
|
Encouraged by my conduct Big Face became a sudden ally |
|
May drought destroy your crops |
|
I was sick once typhoid |
|
Among my minor afflictions I may mention a new mysterious one |
|
Three weeks passed and in that time Thorpe left camp three times |
|
Come on Del Mar challenged |
|
Oolong Atoll was one hundred and forty miles in circumference |
|
Gregson had left the outer door slightly ajar |
|
For the first time in his life he was yearning for a scrap |
|
Billinger may arrive in time |
|
Your being wrecked here has been a godsend to me |
|
Such is my passage engaged on the steamer |
|
The boy grew and prospered |
|
Some boy she laughed acquiescence |
|
The Resident Commissioner is away in Australia |
|
You were engaged |
|
His voice was passionately rebellious |
|
I forgot how easily I had taught myself from the printed page |
|
A rising tide of fat had submerged them |
|
I made no more overtures |
|
They die out of spite |
|
Missus McFee's jaws brought together with a snap |
|
It is growing every day every hour |
|
Take my advice and accept the vacation |
|
Philip didn't pursue the subject |
|
I suppose you wonder why she is coming up here |
|
He may desire to escape pain or to enjoy pleasure |
|
There is no need of further detail now for you can understand |
|
They had been on the same lay as ourselves |
|
From that moment his friendship for Belize turns to hatred and jealousy |
|
And the foundation stone of service in his case was obedience |
|
He saw only the effect in a general sketchy way |
|
The lush vegetation of that sheltered spot make a natural shield |
|
It was beating and waiting in the ambush of those black pits |
|
But who was Eileen's double |
|
The Gabriel voice of the Samurai rang out |
|
Ah I had forgotten he exclaimed |
|
Anything unusual or abnormal was sufficient to send a fellow to Molokai |
|
The awe of man rushed over him again |
|
A half a case of tobacco was worth three pounds |
|
You you would not keep the truth from me |
|
It was sanctification and salvation |
|
I'll only be in the way |
|
Out of abstractions Ernest had conjured a vision and made them see it |
|
Gregson held a lighted match until it burnt his fingertips |
|
It was Jeanne singing softly over beyond the rocks |
|
There's Fort Churchill a rifle shot beyond the ridge asleep |
|
I do not blame you for anything remember that |
|
Call me that again he murmured ecstatically |
|
Daylight was tired profoundly tired |
|
She said with chattering teeth |
|
Every bone in her aged body seemed broken or dislocated |
|
Then there was the campaign |
|
Eighteen he added |
|
There was nothing more except a large ink blot under the words |
|
He loved to play Chinese lottery |
|
I'm sure it must have been some adventure |
|
As to how she dressed he had no ideas at all |
|
Swiftly his eyes measured the situation |
|
To say the least Captain Cook was a rather thorough going empiricist |
|
He had proved it today with his amateurish and sophomoric productions |
|
How can you manage all alone Mister Young |
|
It's the aurora borealis |
|
He's terribly touchy about his black wards as he calls them |
|
Obviously it was a disease that could be contracted by contact |
|
So she said the irate skipper dashed on |
|
As I say he had tapped the message very rapidly |
|
If you mean to insinuate Brentwood began hotly |
|
Beyond dispute Corry Hutchinson had married Mabel Holmes |
|
Let them go out and eat with my boys |
|
Good business man Curly O'Brien was saying |
|
He was determined now to maintain a more certain hold upon himself |
|
He seemed to fill it with his tremendous vitality |
|
It occurred to me that there would have to be an accounting |
|
She obeyed shrinking back with the baby in her arms |
|
The very thought of the effort to swim over was nauseating |
|
It will break our hearts and our backs to hoist anchor by hand |
|
He may anticipate the day of his death |
|
I'm as good as a man she urged |
|
I'm going down there with you and I'm going to fight |
|
This one hope was destroyed as quickly as it was born |
|
He got out by fighting and I through a pretty girl |
|
And here's another idea |
|
Fast but endure |
|
The dirk mentioned by Wolf Larsen rested in its sheath on my hip |
|
Outsiders are allowed five minute speeches the sick man urged |
|
He had fulfilled his duty and paid properly |
|
The Italian rancho was a bachelor establishment |
|
And the air was growing chilly |
|
Sometimes her dreams were filled with visions |
|
Then he hastened on as Pierre had guided him |
|
For that reason Le Beau had chosen him to fight the big fight |
|
Horses and rifles had been her toys camp and trail her nursery |
|
Each day she became a more vital part of him |
|
They were babbling and chattering all together |
|
Zilla relaxed her sour mouth long enough to sigh her satisfaction |
|
She turned in at the hotel |
|
Did Thorpe go to see any one in Churchill |
|
You won't die of malnutrition be sure of that |
|
Her face was against his breast |
|
It is a very tenable hypothesis and will bear looking into |
|
I have been doubly baptized |
|
And Raoul listened again to the tale of the house |
|
Two gigantic owls were tearing at the carcass |
|
Now run along and tell them to hurry |
|
He came first a year ago and revealed himself to Jeanne |
|
The Eldorado emptied its occupants into the street to see the test |
|
Pebbles and dirt flew along with hair and fur |
|
He went down in midstream searching the shadows of both shores |
|
Tomorrow I'm going after that bear he said |
|
It was edged with ice |
|
In such a tumbling of values was no time to sell |
|
Our Mister Howison will call upon you at your hotel |
|
By golly the boy wins |
|
At sea Wednesday March eighteenth nineteen o eight |
|
His abnormal power of vision made abstractions take on concrete form |
|
Then he shouted Shut up |
|
The other felt a sudden wave of irritation rush through him |
|
The ringing of the big bell aroused him |
|
I can't follow you she said |
|
Philip bent low over Pierre |
|
A little before dawn of the day following the fire relief came |
|
Mops sir eagerly answered the sailor at the wheel |
|
His newborn cunning gave him poise and control |
|
Yet he dreams he is immortal I argue feebly |
|
He would keep his faith with Gregson for the promised day or two |
|
The Oligarchy wanted violence and it set its agents provocateurs to work |
|
After all superfluous flesh is gone what is left is stringy and resistant |
|
And as in denial of guilt the one legged boy replied |
|
Ah we were very close together in that moment |
|
Tomorrow or next day it might be gone |
|
All right Sir replied Jock with great regret |
|
They ought to pass here some time today |
|
Neither could they understand the growing disaffection among Thorpe's men |
|
He was a pariah a wanderer without a friend or a home |
|
I had been sad too long already |
|
Bob growing disgusted turned back suddenly and attempted to pass Mab |
|
Harry Bancroft Dave lied |
|
Saxon's onto her job |
|
He loved to play Chinese lottery |
|
The awe of man rushed over him again |
|
I had forgotten their existence |
|
I know they are my oysters |
|
Manuel had one besetting sin |
|
In his anxiety and solicitude and love they did not count |
|
Shall I carry you |
|
The Warden with a quart of champagne |
|
Soon shall it be thrust back from off prostrate humanity |
|
At the best they were necessary accessories |
|
Two days ago Jeanne learned where her father's men were hiding |
|
He had observed the business life of Hawaii and developed a vaulting ambition |
|
But he reconciled himself to it by an act of faith |
|
He pulled and the log crashed down to break his back |
|
Blind with rage he darted in |
|
He had worshiped her as Dante might have worshiped Beatrice |
|
My idea was that he would have more influence over the natives |
|
The lace was of a delicate ivory color faintly tinted with yellow |
|
She said with chattering teeth |
|
Pebbles and dirt flew along with hair and fur |
|
We were now good friends |
|
Illuminating oil was becoming all profit |
|
I saw Mister Pike nod his head grimly and sarcastically |
|
They just lay off in the bush and plugged away |
|
He gave one last snarl and slid from view among the trees |
|
Then there was the campaign |
|
Seventeen no eighteen days ago |
|
I'm going to surprise father and you will go with Pierre |
|
I'd sooner have my chips back |
|
There was one difficulty however |
|
Never so strange a prophet came up to Jerusalem |
|
I remembered the red wine of the Italian rancho and shuddered inwardly |
|
He was pressing beyond the limits of his vocabulary |
|
The Fire Men wore animal skins around their waists and across their shoulders |
|
There was no forecasting this strange girl's processes |
|
Since then some mysterious force has been fighting us at every step |
|
What Pascal glimpsed with the vision of a seer I have lived |
|
And the big Persian knew of his existence before he did of hers |
|
Ernest saw in the affair the most sinister import |
|
I use great trouble advisedly |
|
Fifty yards ahead of her were the first of the rocks |
|
They ran the canoe in and climbed the high earth bank |
|
Well I'll be plumb gosh darned |
|
The planters are already considering the matter |
|
But to culture the Revolution thus far had exhausted the Junta |
|
Already he had begun borrowing from the banks |
|
Suppose you saw me at work through the window |
|
It was my reports from the north which chiefly induced people to buy |
|
I defy any man to get a Solomon Island sore in California |
|
Accept a father's blessing and with it this |
|
But already he had composed himself |
|
The stout wood was crushed like an eggshell |
|
An altruistic act is an act performed for the welfare of others |
|
Raoul yelled in order to make himself heard |
|
Very early in my life I separated from my mother |
|
Lord Fitzhugh was the key to the whole situation |
|
There was pride and strength the ring of triumph in his voice |
|
There was no law on the Yukon save what they made for themselves |
|
Philip produced a couple of cigars and took a chair opposite him |
|
Do you value your hide |
|
The steward has just tendered me a respectful bit of advice |
|
Lord but I'm glad to see you again Phil |
|
Eli Harding asked as Shunk started to follow |
|
At Lake Linderman I had one canoe very good Peterborough canoe |
|
To his surprise her answer was flat and uncompromising |
|
It was strap hangers that will keep us from going under |
|
For the rest he was a mere automaton |
|
At first his progress was slow and erratic |
|
It was over when he made his way through the ring of spectators |
|
Nor would it thaw out his hands and feet |
|
I saw it all myself and it was splendid |
|
There are four all low M'Coy answered |
|
They wouldn't be sweeping a big vessel like the Martha |
|
A rising tide of fat had submerged them |
|
Wada Louis and the steward are servants of Asiatic breed |
|
O'Brien took off his coat and bared his right arm |
|
Then it is as I said Womble announced with finality |
|
They edged nearer and stood shoulder to shoulder facing their world |
|
We are consumed in our own flesh pots |
|
This is no place for you |
|
In it there was something that was almost tragedy |
|
At sea Wednesday March eighteenth nineteen o eight |
|
Shooting pains passed like flashes of electricity through his body |
|
He was an athlete and a giant |
|
It was like the beating of hoofs |
|
He was a head shorter than his companion of almost delicate physique |
|
He is a candidate rising from the serf class to our class |
|
Not till the twentieth of May did the river break |
|
Ahead of them they saw a glimmer of sunshine |
|
The fighting had now become intermittent |
|
The date was nearly eighteen years old |
|
Then and at supper he tried to fathom her |
|
Well there are better men in Hawaii that's all |
|
Her words sent a strange chill through Philip |
|
But this little defect did not worry him |
|
For that reason Le Beau had chosen him to fight the big fight |
|
The lush vegetation of that sheltered spot make a natural shield |
|
He seized Gregson by the arm and led him to the door |
|
Yield yourself to the waters that are ripping and tearing at you |
|
All this day Gregson remained in the cabin |
|
Missus McFee's jaws brought together with a snap |
|
Also at regular intervals he would mutter |
|
To my surprise he began to show actual enthusiasm in my favor |
|
But Martin smiled a superior smile |
|
His partners had starved and died on the Stewart |
|
Much more Ernest told them of themselves and of his disillusionment |
|
He moved away as quietly as he had come |
|
Between him and the beach was the cane grass fence of the compound |
|
His mouth opened words shaped vainly on his lips |
|
This state of mind comes of an undue prominence of the ego |
|
A strange fire burned in his eyes when Thorpe turned |
|
Encouraged by my conduct Big Face became a sudden ally |
|
In a way he is my protege |
|
There was no answer from the other side |
|
For the twentieth time that evening the two men shook hands |
|
The river bared its bosom and snorting steamboats challenged the wilderness |
|
Out of abstractions Ernest had conjured a vision and made them see it |
|
But all my dreams violated this law |
|
He looked like one who had passed through an uncomfortable hour or two |
|
It is dog eat dog and you ate them up |
|
It was a temptation but he resisted it |
|
Did Thorpe go to see any one in Churchill |
|
I was not to cry out in the face of fear |
|
In such a tumbling of values was no time to sell |
|
How old are you mother |
|
On occasion on this traverse the Cape Verde Islands are raised |
|
Why the average review is more nauseating than cod liver oil |
|
They only lifted seven hundred and fifty |
|
I wish you were more adaptable Joan retorted |
|
Our Mister Howison will call upon you at your hotel |
|
And wherever I ranged the way lay along alcohol drenched roads |
|
Then again Tudor had such an irritating way about him |
|
Why he's bought forty pounds of goods from you already |
|
I had faith in them |
|
He was just bursting with joy joy over what |
|
That Longfellow chap most likely had written countless books of poetry |
|
I can't follow you she said |
|
You used to joy ride like the very devil |
|
There's not an iota of truth in it |
|
The pain from my hurt knee was agonizing |
|
Eggshell is not good to eat |
|
And as in denial of guilt the one legged boy replied |
|
A big canvas tent was the first thing to come within his vision |
|
Much replied Jeanne as tersely |
|
Of course that is uninteresting she continued |
|
So we have to fit the boat throughout with oil lamps as well |
|
What was the object of your little sensation |
|
The men stared into each other's face |
|
He had no excuse for the feelings which were aroused in him |
|
At first he puzzled over something untoward he was sure had happened |
|
He also contended that better confidence was established by carrying no weapons |
|
I came for information more out of curiosity than anything else |
|
Now Irvine was a man of impulse a poet |
|
The very opposite is true they are discouraged vagabonds |
|
They robbed me a few years later |
|
There's the hitch replied Thorpe rolling a cigarette |
|
The lines were now very taut |
|
A trickle of fresh blood ran over his face |
|
Get down and dig in |
|
But what they want with your toothbrush is more than I can imagine |
|
Some of the smaller veins had doubtless been ruptured |
|
Suddenly Jeanne stopped for an instant |
|
It was unobtrusive yet it was there |
|
Philip had delivered himself through the maelstrom |
|
The Italian rancho was a bachelor establishment |
|
We never made another migration |
|
Daughtry elaborated on the counting trick by bringing Cocky along |
|
Pierre obeys me when we are together |
|
I'll only be in the way |
|
It was a curious coincidence |
|
It was not exactly a deportation |
|
For an instant he saw Pierre drawn like a silhouette against the sky |
|
White Leghorns said Missus Mortimer |
|
They ate dinner at the fifth and rested for two hours |
|
This is a common experience with all of us |
|
And watch out for wet feet was his parting advice |
|
You have all the advantage |
|
My I'm almost homesick for it already |
|
And how would we find ourselves |
|
He gave no reason but his motive was obvious enough |
|
They had been on the same lay as ourselves |
|
It was steel a fisher trap |
|
I want to die in it |
|
They have won popular sentiment through the newspapers |
|
In her haste to get away she had forgotten these things |
|
Yet he dreams he is immortal I argue feebly |
|
Her gray eyes were flashing and her lips were quivering |
|
There's too much of the schoolboy in me |
|
And now put yourself in my place for a moment |
|
How much was it |
|
And after the bath a shave would not be bad |
|
The Portuguese boy passed the Hawaiian |
|
Any average young fellow can teach himself in a week |
|
He bit his tongue and cursed himself at the fresh break |
|
Sheldon glanced at the thermometer |
|
It's a good property and worth more than that |
|
She turned fearing that Jacques might see what was in her face |
|
Author of the danger trail Philip Steels and etc |
|
In the car were Unwin and Harrison while Jones sat with the chauffeur |
|
Ten minutes had not elapsed since he had dropped the handkerchief |
|
Two gigantic owls were tearing at the carcass |
|
He waded into the edge of the water and began scrubbing himself |
|
Straight out they swam their heads growing smaller and smaller |
|
He was a pariah a wanderer without a friend or a home |
|
There is not an iota of truth in it certainly not |
|
That is the strange part of it |
|
I was beneath the water suffocating and drowning |
|
I do not blame you for anything remember that |
|
And he did hurt my arm |
|
Joan cried with shining eyes |
|
In spite of their absurdity the words affected Philip curiously |
|
There was a change now |
|
Philip ate lightly of the food which Pierre had ready for him |
|
Ah I had forgotten he exclaimed |
|
And Raoul listened again to the tale of the house |
|
The eastern heavens were equally spectacular |
|
He had become a man very early in life |
|
He got out by fighting and I through a pretty girl |
|
His eyes smiled truth at him as he came up the bank |
|
I had been sad too long already |
|
Saxon nodded and the boy frowned |
|
But he didn't broach it preferring to mature it carefully |
|
Jack London Waikiki Beach Honolulu Oahu |
|
He drew in a deep breath as he looked at them |
|
Joan looked triumphantly at Sheldon who bowed |
|
God bless 'em I hope I will go on seeing them forever |
|
Instead he arrived on the night of the second day |
|
A flying arrow passed between us |
|
See the length of the body and that elongated neck |
|
Each insult added to the value of the claim |
|
The Churchill narrowed and its current became swifter as they progressed |
|
How could I answer the question on the spur of the moment |
|
I suppose you wonder why she is coming up here |
|
The issue was not in doubt |
|
It was Jeanne singing softly over beyond the rocks |
|
Of course much grumbling went on and little outbursts were continually occurring |
|
Though the aurora still flamed another day had begun |
|
He had forgotten to build a fire and thaw out |
|
The fourth and fifth days passed without any developments |
|
Whitefish Gregson whitefish and trout |
|
How old are you daddy |
|
Mercedes screamed cried laughed and manifested the chaotic abandonment of hysteria |
|
This one hope was destroyed as quickly as it was born |
|
Cherokee identified himself with his instinct |
|
Its diameter was not more than two hundred yards |
|
The emotion which she had suppressed burst forth now in a choking sob |
|
Those are my oysters he said at last |
|
If I meet her again I shall apologize said Eileen |
|
But in the canyons water was plentiful and also a luxuriant forest growth |
|
The other felt a sudden wave of irritation rush through him |
|
With my strength I slammed it full into Red Eye's face |
|
The butchers and meat cutters refused to handle meat destined for unfair restaurants |
|
The boy grew and prospered |
|
The Indian even poked his stick into the thick ground spruce |
|
The hyena proceeded to dine |
|
She was built primarily to sail |
|
He understood the meaning of the look |
|
To her the bridge was tambo which is the native for taboo |
|
There weren't any missions and he was the man to know |
|
He was wounded in the arm |
|
They were babbling and chattering all together |
|
Beyond dispute Corry Hutchinson had married Mabel Holmes |
|
He did not know what went on in the minds of his superiors |
|
The night was calm and snowy |
|
There has been a change she interrupted him |
|
That's the sub foreman explained Thorpe |
|
But there came no promise from the bow of the canoe |
|
The gray eyes faltered the flush deepened |
|
Jeanne and Pierre both gazed toward the great rock |
|
The twenty ninth very foggy |
|
No sir ee |
|
It seemed the ordained order of things that dogs should work |
|
At this moment I felt a stir at my shoulder |
|
Harrison is still my chauffeur |
|
Outwardly he maintained a calm and smiling aspect |
|
Such an act was in direct violation of the laws of the land |
|
Your price my son is just about thirty per week |
|
A wildly exciting time was his during the week preceding Thursday the eighteenth |
|
He turned the map to Gregson pointing with his finger |
|
Her face was against his breast |
|
But I did not enjoy it long |
|
The Russian music player the Count was her obedient slave |
|
As for himself weren't the street railway earnings increasing steadily |
|
By golly the boy wins |
|
You read the quotations in today's paper |
|
All operations have been carried on from Montreal and Toronto |
|
All eyes however were staring at him in certitude of expectancy |
|
My age in years is twenty two |
|
The girl faced him her eyes shining with sudden fear |
|
Gregson was asleep when he reentered the cabin |
|
It won't be for sale |
|
Perhaps she had already met her fate a little deeper in the forest |
|
In partnership with Daylight the pair raided the San Jose Interurban |
|
Scarcely had he uttered the name when Pierre's closing eyes shot open |
|
And there was a dog that barked |
|
It occurred to me that there would have to be an accounting |
|
It was more like sugar |
|
Two years ago I gave up civilization for this |
|
He was trying to pass a apron string around him |
|
He could feel a new stir in the land |
|
The history of the eighteenth century is written Ernest prompted |
|
I will give a thousand if you produce her retorted Gregson |
|
Philip stood undecided his ears strained to catch the slightest sound |
|
After all it was simply a mistake in judgment |
|
He would destroy all things that are fixed |
|
He was worth nothing to the world |
|
A bush chief had died a natural death |
|
Here in the midmorning the first casualty occurred |
|
Violent life and athletic sports had never appealed to me |
|
From that moment his friendship for Belize turns to hatred and jealousy |
|
The log on which Lop Ear was lying got adrift |
|
You are positively soulless he said savagely |
|
Eighteen hundred he calculated |
|
The sharp voice of Wolf Larsen aroused me |
|
So was Packard's finish suicide |
|
Such a dog the wise driver kills or turns loose |
|
Men who endure it call it living death |
|
They are greatly delighted with anything that is bright or giveth a sound |
|
He came first a year ago and revealed himself to Jeanne |
|
I'm going down there with you and I'm going to fight |
|
One by one the boys were captured |
|
My name's Ferguson |
|
Anyway no one saw her like that |
|
Mops sir eagerly answered the sailor at the wheel |
|
Clubs and balls and cities grew to be only memories |
|
What's that grub thief got to do with it |
|
His reward should have been peace and repose |
|
I should like to engage just for one whole life in that |
|
We would not spend another such night |
|
Their supply of grub was gone |
|
How in hell did he know it was you in the dark |
|
Her achievements with cocoanuts were a revelation |
|
Change chairs Daylight commanded |
|
At sea Monday March sixteenth nineteen o eight |
|
We are both children together |
|
This sound did not disturb the hush and awe of the place |
|
We leave the eventuality to time and law |
|
I was brought up the way most girls in Hawaii are brought up |
|
The discovery seemed to have been made on the spur of the moment |
|
I'm playing a single hand in what looks like a losing game |
|
Cameron looked at his hands with their long sinewy fingers |
|
And Tom King patiently endured |
|
These rumors may even originate with us |
|
He turned sharply and faced Gregson across the table |
|
This was when the explosion occurred |
|
Now run along and tell them to hurry |
|
Jerry was so secure in his nook that he did not roll away |
|
How does your wager look now |
|
He was a wise hyena |
|
Sandel would never become a world champion |
|
I was the only one who remained sitting |
|
His face was streaming with blood |
|
His freshly caught furs he flung to the floor |
|
Enters now the psychology of the situation |
|
A maddening joy pounded in his brain |
|
It was simple in its way and no virtue of his |
|
Now you understand |
|
He had been foiled in his attempt to escape |
|
He had proved it today with his amateurish and sophomoric productions |
|
Here he got a fresh thrill |
|
It's the aurora borealis |
|
Quick was the disappointment in his face yet smiling was the acquiescence |
|
With them were Indians also three other men |
|
Within himself he called it no longer his own |
|
In what bucolic school of fence he had been taught was beyond imagining |
|
Now our figuring was all right |
|
I'll be out of my head in fifteen minutes |
|
Philip knew that she was not an Indian |
|
And the Eurasian Chinese Englishman bowed himself away |
|
There was the Emma Louisa |
|
To these he gave castor oil |
|
And I hope you've got plenty of chain out Captain Young |
|
A little treatment massage with some help from the doctor |
|
They obeyed him and went here and there at his commands |
|
Their love burned with increasing brightness |
|
It does was her audacious answer |
|
The next thing to watch out for is bed sores |
|
We must give ourselves and not our money alone |
|
The journey was continued at dawn |
|
Dunham can your boy go along with Jesse |
|
Thus was momentum gained in the Younger World |
|
He went down in midstream searching the shadows of both shores |
|
The truth of it set Jeanne quivering |
|
I pulled suddenly with all my might |
|
Surely I will excuse you she cried |
|
He is too keenly intelligent too sharply sensitive successfully to endure |
|
Hardly were our plans made public before we were met by powerful opposition |
|
I was near the cabin and saw you |
|
Oppressive as the heat had been it was now even more oppressive |
|
He was an enthusiast and a desert dweller |
|
Perrault found one with head buried in the grub box |
|
It was a large canoe |
|
We will have to watch our chances |
|
But if Pierre didn't return until tomorrow |
|
Such things had occurred before he told Philip |
|
Good business man Curly O'Brien was saying |
|
His voice was passionately rebellious |
|
Then you can arrange yourself comfortably among these robes in the bow |
|
By virtue of that power we shall remain in power |
|
To say the least Captain Cook was a rather thorough going empiricist |
|
His slim fingers closed like steel about Philip's |
|
She had been thoroughly and efficiently mauled |
|
He made sure that the magazine was loaded and resumed his paddling |
|
There were stir and bustle new faces and fresh facts |
|
I learned it myself in English ships |
|
Many other similar disconcerting omissions will be noticed in the Manuscript |
|
Ah we were very close together in that moment |
|
Philip saw MacDougall soon after his short talk with Thorpe |
|
You should have seen them when they heard me spitting Chinook |
|
Wash your hands of me |
|
Also a fellow Senator Chauncey Depew said |
|
I never saw anything like her in my life |
|
Without them he could not run his empire |
|
Behind him lay the thousand years long road across all Siberia and Russia |
|
They were the presage of storm |
|
Out of his eighteen hundred he laid aside sixteen hundred each year |
|
They laughed like two happy children |
|
The Law of Club and Fang |
|
Does that look good |
|
For a few moments he ate in silence |
|
Men of Selden's stamp don't stop at women and children |
|
It was the same way with our revolvers and rifles |
|
Then he shouted Shut up |
|
Philip looked back from the crest and saw Jeanne leaning over the canoe |
|
By that answer my professional medical prestige stood or fell |
|
But why continue the tirade for tirade it was |
|
He deluged me overwhelmed me with argument |
|
Daylight was tired profoundly tired |
|
If you only could know how I thank you |
|
As to how she dressed he had no ideas at all |
|
The life there was healthful and athletic but too juvenile |
|
Philip took a step toward Gregson half determined to awaken him |
|
It was a gigantic inadequacy |
|
It is also an insidious deceitful sun |
|
In the crib the baby sat up and began to prattle |
|
Not a wheel moved in his empire |
|
Nowhere in the North is the soil so prolific |
|
I only read the quotations |
|
Oolong was two hundred and fifty miles from the nearest land |
|
Exciting times are the lot of the fish patrol |
|
They were less stooped than we less springy in their movements |
|
They were artists not biologists |
|
Together they ate the rabbit |
|
She obeyed shrinking back with the baby in her arms |
|
And he was filled with a strange and foreboding fear |
|
It was the proposition that started the big idea in Daughtry's mind |
|
He says he bought him of Jacques Le Beau |
|
But he no longer cared quite so much for that form of diversion |
|
And as never before he was ready to obey |
|
They were three hundred yards apart |
|
Outsiders are allowed five minute speeches the sick man urged |
|
Miss Brodie's smile was slightly sarcastic |
|
He had a big chimpanzee that was a winner |
|
It was sanctification and salvation |
|
The Eldorado emptied its occupants into the street to see the test |
|
A month passed by and Bonanza Creek remained quiet |
|
Then came my boy code |
|
He was manifestly distressed by my coming |
|
Your father's fifth command he nodded |
|
But we were without this momentum |
|
What an excited whispering and conferring took place |
|
The wolf dog thrust his gaunt muzzle toward him |
|
I never allow what can't be changed to annoy me |
|
Whatever he guessed he locked away in the taboo room of Naomi |
|
The man smiled grimly and brought a hatchet and a club |
|
It is the fire partly she said |
|
It seems like a strange pointing of the hand of God |
|
It was a miracle and I owe you my life |
|
The night glow was treacherous to shoot by |
|
And as we hurried up town Joe Goose explained |
|
When I can't see beauty in woman I want to die |
|
Gregson held a lighted match until it burnt his fingertips |
|
Had it struck squarely it would have killed him |
|
One guess will do Ernest retorted |
|
Bob growing disgusted turned back suddenly and attempted to pass Mab |
|
They saw each other for the first time in Boston |
|
I also understand that similar branch organizations have made their appearance in Europe |
|
I saw it when she rolled |
|
He may desire to escape pain or to enjoy pleasure |
|
The mob came on but it could not advance |
|
Like a flash he launched himself into the feathered mass of the owl |
|
How valiantly I went at it that first day |
|
They are big trees and require plenty of room |
|
You're joking me sir the other managed to articulate |
|
The apron string loomed near and he shied like an unbroken colt |
|
Ask him I laughed then turned to Pasquini |
|
Her mouth opened but instead of speaking she drew a long sigh |
|
Here the explosion of mirth drowned him out |
|
His teeth shut with a last click |
|
So cheer up and give us your paw |
|
A scarlet loincloth |
|
McVeigh when he returns from a trip to Honolulu |
|
The big eyed clucking moose birds were most annoying |
|
Let us talk it over and find a way out |
|
This is my fifth voyage |
|
It's merely the simple superlative |
|
He saw all men in business game doing this |
|
Ah it was sweet in my ears |
|
New idea he volunteered brand new idea |
|
Famine had been my great ally |
|
Each day she became a more vital part of him |
|
And the Edinburgh Evening News says with editorial gloom |
|
We fished sharks on Niihau together |
|
His previous wives had never lived long enough to bear him children |
|
And this was their sole conversation throughout the meal |
|
These were merely stout sticks an inch or so in diameter |
|
Her beautiful hair was done up in shining coils |
|
He was an amphibian and a mountaineer |
|
The voyage was our idea of a good time |
|
Just the same I'd sooner be myself than have book indigestion |
|
He was smooth shaven and his hair and eyes were black |
|
He placed his paw on one and its movements were accelerated |
|
It's the nearest refuge |
|
Halfway around the track one donkey got into an argument with its rider |
|
We could throw stones with our feet |
|
The Resident Commissioner is away in Australia |
|
The Gabriel voice of the Samurai rang out |
|
The very idea of it was preposterous |
|
We had been chased by them ourselves more than once |
|
For a time the exciting thrill of his adventure was gone |
|
She was even more beautiful than when I saw her before |
|
Thirty pounds said the captain with finality |
|
We must achieve our own salvation |
|
In short my joyous individualism was dominated by the orthodox bourgeois ethics |
|
Captain West may be a Samurai but he is also human |
|
There's a big English general right now whose name is Roberts |
|
He had comparatively no advantages at first |
|
But a strange thing happened |
|
Christmas is an easy problem compared with a Polynesian giving feast |
|
Idealism led him to philosophic anarchy and his family threw him off |
|
Something that Whittemore had not yet said thrilled him |
|
They closed now until his fingers were like cords of steel |
|
The scents of strange vegetation blew off the tropic land |
|
What do you mean by this outrageous conduct |
|
It drowned all sound that brute agony and death may have made |
|
So Hughie and I did the managing ourselves |
|
Three weeks passed and in that time Thorpe left camp three times |
|
He began to follow the footprints of the dog |
|
Oh it's just a novel a love story |
|
It was put together in a casual helter skelter sort of way |
|
That's what Carnegie did |
|
Or have they already devised one |
|
And twenty men could hold it with spears and arrows |
|
In the matter of curry she is a sheer genius |
|
The President of the United States was his friend |
|
Philip thrust himself against it and entered |
|
Shorty turned to their employers |
|
The reorganization of these countries took the form of revolution |
|
And their chief virtue lies in that they will never wear out |
|
Curly rushed her antagonist who struck again and leaped aside |
|
He was sure now of but few things |
|
Two of the Folk were already up |
|
They only had a little thirty thousand dollar fire |
|
I lost my balance and pitched head foremost into the ooze |
|
It's a Yankee Joan cried |
|
The hunters were still arguing and roaring like some semi human amphibious breed |
|
King took every advantage he knew |
|
We who have endured so much surely can endure a little more |
|
No man ate of the seal meat or the oil |
|
Knowing him I review the old Scandinavian myths with clearer understanding |
|
Wonder if he's a lion dog Charles suggested |
|
Three oilers and a fourth engineer was his greeting |
|
You live on an income which your father earned |
|
Matthewson who's this bookkeeper Rogers |
|
He obeyed the pressure of her hand |
|
But there was also talk of witchcraft in the village |
|
A half a case of tobacco was worth three pounds |
|
Philip made no effort to follow |
|
Philip bent lower and stared into the face of the dead man |
|
Also churches and preachers I had never known |
|
Saxon waited for she knew a fresh idea had struck Billy |
|
Darkness hid him from Jeanne |
|
He had been born with this endowment |
|
The Portuguese boy crawled nearer and nearer |
|
Yet behind them there was another and more powerful motive |
|
There's Fort Churchill a rifle shot beyond the ridge asleep |
|
Goodbye Pierre he shouted |
|
Does the old boy often go off at half cock that way |
|
Burke himself had criticized it because of the smile |
|
Obviously it was a disease that could be contracted by contact |
|
I said and dismissed the matter as not worth thinking about |
|
I can't go elsewhere by your own account |
|
He stopped and Philip nodded at the horrified question in his eyes |
|
Jeanne was turning the bow shoreward |
|
And the foundation stone of service in his case was obedience |
|
Your being wrecked here has been a godsend to me |
|
Points of view new ideas life |
|
If I was out of the game it would be easily made |
|
I'll see to poor Hughie |
|
It was our river emerging like ourselves from the great swamp |
|
I want to know how all this is possible |
|
His infernal chattering worries me even now as I think of it |
|
Now just what do you want to know |
|
His beady black eyes saw bargains where other men saw bankruptcy |
|
And the air was growing chilly |
|
Man could not conquer them |
|
I made no more overtures |
|
I had been born with no organic chemical predisposition toward alcohol |
|
He was the soul of devotion to his employers |
|
That was why I am am rattled he laughed |
|
It was a superb picture |
|
He had been so easy |
|
They will search for us between their camp and Churchill |
|
And so early in the voyage too |
|
I suppose you picked that lingo up among the Indians |
|
On the far corner of the compound fence a hawk brooded |
|
So far as flags were concerned they were beyond all jurisdiction |
|
Then it was that a strange thing happened |
|
It would give me nervous prostration |
|
Dear Sir Your second victim has fallen on schedule time |
|
And now behold the perversity of things |
|
He was fond of quoting a fragment from a certain poem |
|
And you always want to see it in the superlative degree |
|
Now go ahead and tell me in a straightforward way what has happened |
|
Now these things had been struck dead within him |
|
Horses and rifles had been her toys camp and trail her nursery |
|
Why not like any railroad station or ferry depot |
|
It was the rendezvous of those who were striving to work his ruin |
|
Gregson had left the outer door slightly ajar |
|
About him everywhere were the evidences of luxury and of age |
|
Philip bent low over Pierre |
|
You mean for this State General Alberta |
|
I know that you are in charge there and Jeanne knows |
|
I was in New York when the crash came |
|
If not let's say our prayers and go to bed |
|
He plodded on for half an hour when the hallucination arose again |
|
He was the leader and Tudor was his lieutenant |
|
Too much he told me with ominous rolling head |
|
His blood grew hot with rage at the thought |
|
Burnt out like the crater of a volcano |
|
Neither could they understand the growing disaffection among Thorpe's men |
|
Very few people knew of the existence of this law |
|
The regret in his voice was provocative of a second burst of laughter |
|
His slim hands gripped the edges of the table |
|
What if she didn't come to the rock |
|
I tell you I am disgusted with this adventure tomfoolery and rot |
|
The flush was gone from her face |
|
He saw the answer in his face |
|
Yea so are all the lesser animals of today clean |
|
There are the canals of China and the Yangtse River |
|
I like to speculate upon the glorious future of man |
|
He will follow us soon |
|
They are to attack your camp tomorrow night |
|
At that moment I got the impression that she was willowy |
|
Wada and Na ka ta were in a bit of a funk |
|
A new preacher and a new doctrine come to Jerusalem |
|
Therefore hurrah for the game |
|
To my dearest and always appreciated friend I submit myself |
|
O'Brien had been a clean living young man with ideals |
|
That's where they cut off the Scottish Chiefs and killed all hands |
|
You must sleep he urged |
|
He confessed that the sketch had startled him |
|
Everything was working smoothly better than I had expected |
|
I graduated last of my class |
|
Also I want information |
|
In it was the joy of life |
|
Also there was awe in their faces |
|
I'm sure it must have been some adventure |
|
Jacob Brinker who was his road mate brought the news |
|
Beyond refusing to sell us food they left us to ourselves |
|
A combination of Canadian capital quickly organized and petitioned for the same privileges |
|
I have hunted along this ridge replied Philip |
|
Then you don't believe in altruism |
|
Think of investing in such an adventure |
|
I have seen myself that one man contemplated by Pascal's philosophic eye |
|
You see we were teaching ourselves |
|
What the flaming |
|
At sea Tuesday March seventeenth nineteen o eight |
|
Why should a fellow throw up the sponge after the first round |
|
I followed the line of the proposed railroad looking for chances |
|
But she swung obediently on her heel into the wind |
|
Every bone in her aged body seemed broken or dislocated |
|
He cried in such genuine dismay that she broke into hearty laughter |
|
The history of our westward faring race is written in it |
|
Do you know any good land around here |
|
I was completely lost in my work |
|
Billinger may arrive in time |
|
He knew what taboos he was violating |
|
The boy hesitated then mastered his temper |
|
Fast but endure |
|
He boiled himself some coffee and sat down to wait |
|
They die out of spite |
|
Please do not think that I already know it all |
|
He's terribly touchy about his black wards as he calls them |
|
Among my minor afflictions I may mention a new mysterious one |
|
There is that magnificent Bob eating his head off in the stable |
|
I want my men to work by themselves |
|
It was my idea to a tee |
|
For two hours not a word passed between them |
|
If you mean to insinuate Brentwood began hotly |
|
He spat it out like so much venom |
|
In the picture he saw each moment a greater resemblance to Jeanne |
|
It seemed nearer to him since he had seen and talked with Gregson |
|
Now have you got anything to say against me Mister Philip |
|
Robbery bribery fraud |
|
May drought destroy your crops |
|
It was impossible to hoist sail and claw off that shore |
|
You yellow giant thing of the frost |
|
But they make the mistake of ignoring their own duality |
|
Nor was Elam Harnish an exception |
|
Soaked in seawater they offset the heat rays |
|
He made no reply as he waited for Whittemore to continue |
|
The Indian felt the worship of her warm in his heart |
|
Without a doubt some of them have dinner engagements |
|
There is no need of further detail now for you can understand |
|
It's that much junk |
|
From the source of light a harsh voice said |
|
His outstretched arm dropped to his side and he paused |
|
It was beating and waiting in the ambush of those black pits |
|
How can you manage all alone Mister Young |
|
In moments of mental energy Philip was restless |
|
He will knock you off a few sticks in no time |
|
That came before my A B C's |
|
Do you know that we weigh every pound of coal we burn |
|
The boy at the wheel lost his head |
|
But it contributed to the smash |
|
Also she has forbidden them smoking their pipes in the after room |
|
The added weight had a velocity of fifteen miles per hour |
|
Then he stepped back with a low cry of pleasure |
|
Red Eye never committed a more outrageous deed |
|
I have to be careful of them as they tear very easily |
|
The task we set ourselves was threefold |
|
That is what distinguishes all of us from the lower animals |
|
It's worth eight dollars |
|
He had barely entered this when he saw the glow of a fire |
|
After all superfluous flesh is gone what is left is stringy and resistant |
|
They are not biologists nor sociologists |
|
Unlike Joshua he stood in no need of divine assistance |
|
The promoter's eyes were heavy with little puffy bags under them |
|
He thought he saw a shudder pass through the Factor's shoulders |
|
Men like Joe Goose dated existence from drunk to drunk |
|
And now down there Eileen was waiting for him |
|
Lots of men take women buggy riding |
|
They are his tongue by which he makes his knowledge articulate |
|
He would first hunt up Gregson and begin his work there |
|
You can take a vacation on pay |
|
He don't catch me at any such foolishness |
|
The questions may have come vaguely in his mind |
|
How could he explain his possession of the sketch |
|
Yes and no sir was the slow reply |
|
You were destroying my life |
|
Their forces were already moving into the north country |
|
I have been robbed sir I amended |
|
It was introduced by Representative Dick of Ohio |
|
The flower of the artistic and intellectual world were revolutionists |
|
Won't you draw up gentlemen |
|
He did not believe in the burning of daylight for such a luxury |
|
Earth and gravel seemed to fill the pan |
|
Philip began to feel that he had foolishly overestimated his strength |
|
The dirk mentioned by Wolf Larsen rested in its sheath on my hip |
|
His hand shot out and clutched Crooked Leg by the neck |
|
Between him and all domestic animals there must be no hostilities |
|
I forgot how easily I had taught myself from the printed page |
|
But there was no longer the mother yearning in his heart |
|
The skipper's and Na ka tas gymnastics served as a translation without words |
|
From my earliest recollection my sleep was a period of terror |
|
The boy threw back his head with pride |
|
He chuckled as he pulled out his pipe and began filling it |
|
I arose obediently and went down the beach |
|
M'Coy found a stifling poisonous atmosphere in the pent cabin |
|
This also became part of the daily schedule |
|
But such divergence of opinion would constitute no menace to society |
|
You were making them talk shop Ruth charged him |
|
He may anticipate the day of his death |
|
He wanted to give the finish to this foe already so far gone |
|
The ringing of the big bell aroused him |
|
I was still weak from my prolonged immersion |
|
He glanced down at her helplessly and moistened his lips |
|
Nope not the slightest idea |
|
Could the incident have anything to do with Jeanne and Pierre |
|
And you preferred a cannibal isle and a cartridge belt |
|
For such countries nothing remained but reorganization |
|
Between the rush of the cascades streaks of rust showed everywhere |
|
It issued a rate of forty two dollars a car on charcoal |
|
The Japanese understood as we could never school ourselves or hope to understand |
|
I have been doubly baptized |
|
Suddenly his fingers closed tightly over the handkerchief |
|
Bassett was a fastidious man |
|
There is more behind this than a mere university ideal |
|
Here we allow our solicitors to look after our legal work |
|
All an appearance can know is mirage |
|
You were going to leave after you saw me on the rock |
|
They are not regular oyster pirates Nicholas continued |
|
A month in Australia would finish me |
|
If I ever needed a fighter in my life I need one now |
|
They are coming ashore whoever they are |
|
Some boy she laughed acquiescence |
|
Tomorrow I'm going after that bear he said |
|
They were deep in the primeval forest |
|
This tacit promise of continued acquaintance gave Saxon a little joy thrill |
|
But there was something even more startling than this resemblance |
|
The boy at the wheel lost his head |
|
He made no reply as he waited for Whittemore to continue |
|
He was just bursting with joy joy over what |
|
For that reason Le Beau had chosen him to fight the big fight |
|
A wildly exciting time was his during the week preceding Thursday the eighteenth |
|
I was not to cry out in the face of fear |
|
He would first hunt up Gregson and begin his work there |
|
Mercedes screamed cried laughed and manifested the chaotic abandonment of hysteria |
|
It is the fire partly she said |
|
And he thought of Oona and of her words |
|
Here he got a fresh thrill |
|
She said with chattering teeth |
|
With these arguments he convinced himself that he should go on alone |
|
Take my advice and accept the vacation |
|
One great drawback to farming in California is our long dry summer |
|
The lush vegetation of that sheltered spot make a natural shield |
|
From that moment his friendship for Belize turns to hatred and jealousy |
|
Harrison is still my chauffeur |
|
They robbed me a few years later |
|
He would destroy all things that are fixed |
|
Would you be satisfied with that one hundredth part of me |
|
He leapt again and the club caught him once more |
|
The Oligarchy will encourage such ambition and the consequent competition |
|
At times I wondered where Sir Archibald got his style |
|
But he didn't broach it preferring to mature it carefully |
|
He can care for himself |
|
What an excited whispering and conferring took place |
|
It was our river emerging like ourselves from the great swamp |
|
For the first time in his life he was yearning for a scrap |
|
She was sleeping under his protection as sweetly as a child |
|
You have associated with some of these men |
|
Outsiders are allowed five minute speeches the sick man urged |
|
It was beating and waiting in the ambush of those black pits |
|
He had fulfilled his duty and paid properly |
|
Then it is as I said Womble announced with finality |
|
The eastern heavens were equally spectacular |
|
Never so strange a prophet came up to Jerusalem |
|
All right Sir replied Jock with great regret |
|
He looked at the handkerchief more closely |
|
Whoever lived on the ranch did that |
|
I learned it myself in English ships |
|
Now animals do not like mockery |
|
And Raoul listened again to the tale of the house |
|
MacDougall my engineer believes it |
|
He had peeled off his shirt and was wildly waving it |
|
I can't go elsewhere by your own account |
|
Then you can arrange yourself comfortably among these robes in the bow |
|
He destroyed everything that had belonged to the woman |
|
It is growing every day every hour |
|
Quick was the disappointment in his face yet smiling was the acquiescence |
|
He may desire to escape pain or to enjoy pleasure |
|
That's Thorpe's said the young engineer |
|
Red Eye never committed a more outrageous deed |
|
It would give me nervous prostration |
|
Not a wheel moved in his empire |
|
In a flash he was on his feet facing him |
|
It is not an attempt to smash the market |
|
The flower of the artistic and intellectual world were revolutionists |
|
A little treatment massage with some help from the doctor |
|
I made no more overtures |
|
How old are you daddy |
|
Now run along and tell them to hurry |
|
Their love burned with increasing brightness |
|
I do not blame you for anything remember that |
|
Oh it's just a novel a love story |
|
When I came to I was waving my hat and murmuring ecstatically |
|
Every bone in her aged body seemed broken or dislocated |
|
There are the canals of China and the Yangtse River |
|
Matthewson who's this bookkeeper Rogers |
|
The very thought of the effort to swim over was nauseating |
|
It's worth eight dollars |
|
We had been chased by them ourselves more than once |
|
Nor was Elam Harnish an exception |
|
Three weeks passed and in that time Thorpe left camp three times |
|
Who the devil gave it to you to be judge and jury |
|
It was a gigantic inadequacy |
|
What if she didn't come to the rock |
|
MacDougall tapped his forehead suspiciously with a stubby forefinger |
|
Now these things had been struck dead within him |
|
You should have seen them when they heard me spitting Chinook |
|
We must give ourselves and not our money alone |
|
Thirty pounds said the captain with finality |
|
Some one had thrust a large sheath knife into his hand |
|
The Fire People like ourselves lived in caves |
|
From my earliest recollection my sleep was a period of terror |
|
Hardly were our plans made public before we were met by powerful opposition |
|
There was no chance to fire without hitting him |
|
Then it was that a strange thing happened |
|
The sixth day he spent in the cabin with Gregson |
|
Pierre obeys me when we are together |
|
Philip thrust himself against it and entered |
|
But they make the mistake of ignoring their own duality |
|
Together they ate the rabbit |
|
Also a fellow Senator Chauncey Depew said |
|
Earth and gravel seemed to fill the pan |
|
In moments of mental energy Philip was restless |
|
Philip had delivered himself through the maelstrom |
|
And the big Persian knew of his existence before he did of hers |
|
You were looking squeamish this afternoon he began |
|
Think of investing in such an adventure |
|
He glanced down at her helplessly and moistened his lips |
|
It took him half an hour to reach the edge of it |
|
Cherokee identified himself with his instinct |
|
Sometime about it seemed to fascinate him to challenge his presence |
|
Eighteen he added |
|
I know they are my oysters |
|
The flush was gone from her face |
|
He saw the answer in his face |
|
Here the explosion of mirth drowned him out |
|
Philip ate lightly of the food which Pierre had ready for him |
|
His reward should have been peace and repose |
|
They only lifted seven hundred and fifty |
|
Then came my boy code |
|
Christmas is an easy problem compared with a Polynesian giving feast |
|
Yea I will tell thee |
|
Everything was working smoothly better than I had expected |
|
It's a good property and worth more than that |
|
Her own betrayal of herself was like tonic to Philip |
|
Like a flash he launched himself into the feathered mass of the owl |
|
He had heard always how he was the lover of the Princess Naomi |
|
Do you know that we weigh every pound of coal we burn |
|
It is dog eat dog and you ate them up |
|
Mops sir eagerly answered the sailor at the wheel |
|
The voyage was our idea of a good time |
|
You're a devil for fighting and will surely win |
|
Curly rushed her antagonist who struck again and leaped aside |
|
Why doggone you all shake again |
|
We fished sharks on Niihau together |
|
Wash your hands of me |
|
Bassett was a fastidious man |
|
I'll only be in the way |
|
Last night he showed all the symptoms of coming down with pneumonia |
|
These rumors may even originate with us |
|
Is that Pat Hanrahan's mug looking hungry and willing |
|
But Johannes could and did |
|
In short my joyous individualism was dominated by the orthodox bourgeois ethics |
|
By virtue of that power we shall remain in power |
|
For a full half minute Jeanne looked at him without speaking |
|
He boiled himself some coffee and sat down to wait |
|
Ah it's growing dark and darker |
|
Violent life and athletic sports had never appealed to me |
|
At sea Wednesday March eighteenth nineteen o eight |
|
I defy any man to get a Solomon Island sore in California |
|
His slim hands gripped the edges of the table |
|
I suppose you picked that lingo up among the Indians |
|
Broken Tooth yelled with fright and pain |
|
They are big trees and require plenty of room |
|
The other felt a sudden wave of irritation rush through him |
|
For a few moments he ate in silence |
|
He had a big chimpanzee that was a winner |
|
She added with genuine sympathy in her face and voice |
|
What the flaming |
|
He confessed that the sketch had startled him |
|
And I hope you've got plenty of chain out Captain Young |
|
Our Mister Howison will call upon you at your hotel |
|
O'Brien had been a clean living young man with ideals |
|
It lived in perpetual apprehension of that quarter of the compass |
|
For such countries nothing remained but reorganization |
|
I obeyed and a minute or two later they stood before him |
|
Their forces were already moving into the north country |
|
And how would we find ourselves |
|
Do you know that you are shaking my confidence in you |
|
The discovery seemed to have been made on the spur of the moment |
|
They edged nearer and stood shoulder to shoulder facing their world |
|
Two days ago Jeanne learned where her father's men were hiding |
|
This was when the explosion occurred |
|
We saw your light and thought you wouldn't mind a call |
|
The reorganization of these countries took the form of revolution |
|
The Resident Commissioner is away in Australia |
|
He stopped and Philip nodded at the horrified question in his eyes |
|
They laughed like two happy children |
|
You live on an income which your father earned |
|
It was not a large lake and almost round |
|
Typhoid did I tell you |
|
I'm going to surprise father and you will go with Pierre |
|
With my strength I slammed it full into Red Eye's face |
|
Again the girls applauded and Missus Hall cried |
|
Each improvement makes the value of everything else pump up |
|
Dear Sir Your second victim has fallen on schedule time |
|
I did not think you would be so early |
|
The apron string loomed near and he shied like an unbroken colt |
|
May drought destroy your crops |
|
So Hughie and I did the managing ourselves |
|
I want to die in it |
|
Joan looked triumphantly at Sheldon who bowed |
|
Here we allow our solicitors to look after our legal work |
|
In the Bohemian Club of San Francisco there are some crack sailors |
|
Massage under tension was the cryptic reply |
|
If I ever needed a fighter in my life I need one now |
|
The Indian felt the worship of her warm in his heart |
|
Now have you got anything to say against me Mister Philip |
|
He looked like one who had passed through an uncomfortable hour or two |
|
They ate dinner at the fifth and rested for two hours |
|
He was manifestly distressed by my coming |
|
He moved his position and the illusion was gone |
|
A cry of joy burst from Philip's lips |
|
Ahead of them they saw a glimmer of sunshine |
|
Oppressive as the heat had been it was now even more oppressive |
|
How could he explain his possession of the sketch |
|
It's the nearest refuge |
|
The Indian even poked his stick into the thick ground spruce |
|
No sir ee |
|
He had barely entered this when he saw the glow of a fire |
|
What part of the United States is your home |
|
But how are you going to do it |
|
Philip knew that she was not an Indian |
|
Much replied Jeanne as tersely |
|
I never saw anything like her in my life |
|
You fired me out of your house in short |
|
Change chairs Daylight commanded |
|
Oolong Atoll was one hundred and forty miles in circumference |
|
He had no excuse for the feelings which were aroused in him |
|
His blood grew hot with rage at the thought |
|
Philip bent low over Pierre |
|
Yes and no sir was the slow reply |
|
But if Pierre didn't return until tomorrow |
|
This also became part of the daily schedule |
|
Outwardly he maintained a calm and smiling aspect |
|
There was nothing on the rock |
|
It's that much junk |
|
Two years ago I gave up civilization for this |
|
To my dearest and always appreciated friend I submit myself |
|
This time he did not yap for mercy |
|
Please do not think that I already know it all |
|
I may manage to freight a cargo back as well |
|
Did Thorpe go to see any one in Churchill |
|
You have all the advantage |
|
That's what Carnegie did |
|
Nimrod replied with a slight manifestation of sensitiveness |
|
You must sleep he urged |
|
Peace be unto you and grace before the Lord |
|
It would help to tide me along until I got steady employment |
|
The boy hesitated then mastered his temper |
|
He read his fragments aloud |
|
Let us talk it over and find a way out |
|
Idealism led him to philosophic anarchy and his family threw him off |
|
The questions may have come vaguely in his mind |
|
They likewise are disinclined to being eaten |
|
They are not regular oyster pirates Nicholas continued |
|
But there was something even more startling than this resemblance |
|
The journey was continued at dawn |
|
It was strap hangers that will keep us from going under |
|
We got few vegetables and fruits and became fish eaters |
|
Pearce's little eyes were fixed on him shrewdly |
|
A dead man is of no use on a plantation |
|
Philip bent lower and stared into the face of the dead man |
|
The life there was healthful and athletic but too juvenile |
|
He had been so easy |
|
The thought set his blood tingling |
|
But I did not enjoy it long |
|
I will go over tomorrow afternoon |
|
Such things had occurred before he told Philip |
|
If I meet her again I shall apologize said Eileen |
|
If not let's say our prayers and go to bed |
|
Otherwise no restriction is put upon their seafaring |
|
The woman in you is only incidental accidental and irrelevant |
|
A month passed by and Bonanza Creek remained quiet |
|
Billinger may arrive in time |
|
There's too much of the schoolboy in me |
|
Beyond dispute Corry Hutchinson had married Mabel Holmes |
|
There was one difficulty however |
|
Wada and Na ka ta were in a bit of a funk |
|
I tell you I am disgusted with this adventure tomfoolery and rot |
|
Take away their foreman and they wouldn't be worth their grub |
|
Such an act was in direct violation of the laws of the land |
|
I was brought up the way most girls in Hawaii are brought up |
|
Burnt out like the crater of a volcano |
|
He bit his tongue and cursed himself at the fresh break |
|
Two of the Folk were already up |
|
The temperature dropped to fifty below zero and remained there the whole trip |
|
He went down in midstream searching the shadows of both shores |
|
A maddening joy pounded in his brain |
|
This is a common experience with all of us |
|
Before Philip could recover him Jeanne's startled guards were upon him |
|
Jack London Waikiki Beach Honolulu Oahu |
|
Such things in her brain were like so many oaths on her lips |
|
But ever his gaze returned to that Crouched Venus on the piano |
|
Swiftly his eyes measured the situation |
|
Neither could they understand the growing disaffection among Thorpe's men |
|
In such a tumbling of values was no time to sell |
|
That Longfellow chap most likely had written countless books of poetry |
|
And so early in the voyage too |
|
Very few people knew of the existence of this law |
|
Lord Fitzhugh was the key to the whole situation |
|
They obeyed him and went here and there at his commands |
|
That's why its boundaries are all gouged and jagged |
|
You won't die of malnutrition be sure of that |
|
Enjoy it he did but principally for Steward's sake |
|
He didn't rush in |
|
She nodded and her eyes grew soft and moist |
|
We could throw stones with our feet |
|
They were the presage of storm |
|
There are four all low M'Coy answered |
|
Soon shall it be thrust back from off prostrate humanity |
|
And this was their sole conversation throughout the meal |
|
Miss Brodie's smile was slightly sarcastic |
|
I'm writing these lines in Honolulu Hawaii |
|
Her face was against his breast |
|
It seems like a strange pointing of the hand of God |
|
My age in years is twenty two |
|
Straight out they swam their heads growing smaller and smaller |
|
They were less stooped than we less springy in their movements |
|
O'Brien emitted a shriek that sank swiftly to a gurgling sob |
|
Something vastly more thrilling had come into it now |
|
I was still weak from my prolonged immersion |
|
Saxon nodded and the boy frowned |
|
I saw Mister Pike nod his head grimly and sarcastically |
|
His newborn cunning gave him poise and control |
|
Without discussion it was the agents provocateurs who caused the Peasant Revolt |
|
God bless 'em I hope I will go on seeing them forever |
|
For the rest he was a mere automaton |
|
And now put yourself in my place for a moment |
|
He had proved it today with his amateurish and sophomoric productions |
|
We have plenty of capital ourselves and yet we want more |
|
There followed a roar and shook the earth |
|
Gregson had seated himself under the lamp and was sharpening a pencil |
|
The women they carried away with them to the Big Valley |
|
Three oilers and a fourth engineer was his greeting |
|
Did I possess too much vitality |
|
In it there was something that was almost tragedy |
|
I'm going down there with you and I'm going to fight |
|
A shadow was creeping over Pierre's eyes |
|
His partners had starved and died on the Stewart |
|
Stand off butcher and baker and all the rest |
|
There is more behind this than a mere university ideal |
|
What do you mean by this outrageous conduct |
|
King took every advantage he knew |
|
And right there I saw and knew it all |
|
The awe of man rushed over him again |
|
He was smooth shaven and his hair and eyes were black |
|
The lace was of a delicate ivory color faintly tinted with yellow |
|
He wondered too where Roscoe was |
|
And here's another idea |
|
Nowhere did the raw earth appear |
|
Also at regular intervals he would mutter |
|
I'm as good as a man she urged |
|
Ernest saw in the affair the most sinister import |
|
A moment before he was intoxicated by a joy that was almost madness |
|
Many other similar disconcerting omissions will be noticed in the Manuscript |
|
Had it struck squarely it would have killed him |
|
Out of his eighteen hundred he laid aside sixteen hundred each year |
|
So cheer up and give us your paw |
|
For two hours not a word passed between them |
|
Then there was the campaign |
|
Eighteen hundred he calculated |
|
And the foundation stone of service in his case was obedience |
|
He drank of the water cautiously |
|
He wanted to give the finish to this foe already so far gone |
|
Very early in my life I separated from my mother |
|
There was nothing for us but the wide raw ocean |
|
Between the rush of the cascades streaks of rust showed everywhere |
|
Of course that is uninteresting she continued |
|
From the source of light a harsh voice said |
|
There were stir and bustle new faces and fresh facts |
|
I'll tell you the librarian said with a brightening face |
|
Then he stepped back with a low cry of pleasure |
|
He had forgotten to build a fire and thaw out |
|
The steward has just tendered me a respectful bit of advice |
|
But Martin smiled a superior smile |
|
They just lay off in the bush and plugged away |
|
We never made another migration |
|
By golly the boy wins |
|
We threaten to be of the one mind before the voyage is completed |
|
Keep an eye on him |
|
On the far corner of the compound fence a hawk brooded |
|
It's merely the simple superlative |
|
The night was calm and snowy |
|
Between him and the beach was the cane grass fence of the compound |
|
Anyway no one saw her like that |
|
Her gray eyes were flashing and her lips were quivering |
|
In the car were Unwin and Harrison while Jones sat with the chauffeur |
|
They have won popular sentiment through the newspapers |
|
They only had a little thirty thousand dollar fire |
|
I had forgotten their existence |
|
To my surprise he began to show actual enthusiasm in my favor |
|
He got out by fighting and I through a pretty girl |
|
With them were Indians also three other men |
|
Crickets began to chirp and more geese and ducks flew overhead |
|
I came for information more out of curiosity than anything else |
|
Eli Harding asked as Shunk started to follow |
|
He loved to play Chinese lottery |
|
But this time it was Saxon who rebelled |
|
Philip stood undecided his ears strained to catch the slightest sound |
|
His immaculate appearance was gone |
|
Now you're coming down to business Phil he exclaimed |
|
The regret in his voice was provocative of a second burst of laughter |
|
Dennin's hands were released long enough for him to sign the document |
|
To these he gave castor oil |
|
Not till the twentieth of May did the river break |
|
Philip looked back from the crest and saw Jeanne leaning over the canoe |
|
He turned the map to Gregson pointing with his finger |
|
He plodded on for half an hour when the hallucination arose again |
|
Without them he could not run his empire |
|
If you mean to insinuate Brentwood began hotly |
|
But there was also talk of witchcraft in the village |
|
I'm playing a single hand in what looks like a losing game |
|
Yes sir I corrected |
|
The date was nearly eighteen years old |
|
The boy threw back his head with pride |
|
In that case he could not miss them if he used caution |
|
He was the soul of devotion to his employers |
|
Goodbye Pierre he shouted |
|
Come on Del Mar challenged |
|
Such a dog the wise driver kills or turns loose |
|
He will never do a tap of work the whole Voyage |
|
For a full minute he crouched and listened |
|
He was a head shorter than his companion of almost delicate physique |
|
And Tom King patiently endured |
|
Missus McFee's jaws brought together with a snap |
|
It was my reports from the north which chiefly induced people to buy |
|
The hyena proceeded to dine |
|
He did not know what went on in the minds of his superiors |
|
The Eldorado emptied its occupants into the street to see the test |
|
I was beneath the water suffocating and drowning |
|
The Portuguese boy crawled nearer and nearer |
|
Blood was oozing slowly from the wounded man's right breast |
|
They are to attack your camp tomorrow night |
|
It was the third or fourth time that Philip had heard MacDougall swear |
|
It's the aurora borealis |
|
I just do appreciate it without being able to express my feelings |
|
Horses and rifles had been her toys camp and trail her nursery |
|
Soaked in seawater they offset the heat rays |
|
He could feel a new stir in the land |
|
He had been foiled in his attempt to escape |
|
He was wounded in the arm |
|
His voice was passionately rebellious |
|
These were merely stout sticks an inch or so in diameter |
|
At this moment I felt a stir at my shoulder |
|
To say the least Captain Cook was a rather thorough going empiricist |
|
Nowhere in the North is the soil so prolific |
|
It's only his indigestion I find fault with |
|
So far as flags were concerned they were beyond all jurisdiction |
|
Enters now the psychology of the situation |
|
It was introduced by Representative Dick of Ohio |
|
She is essentially the life giving life conserving female of the species |
|
The Claudine was leaving next morning for Honolulu |
|
He would keep his faith with Gregson for the promised day or two |
|
But a strange thing happened |
|
But who was Eileen's double |
|
In the matter of curry she is a sheer genius |
|
At the best they were necessary accessories |
|
Raoul yelled in order to make himself heard |
|
The mob came on but it could not advance |
|
My right foot feels like that of a Chinese debutante |
|
Ah indeed |
|
And you preferred a cannibal isle and a cartridge belt |
|
She turned in at the hotel |
|
His previous wives had never lived long enough to bear him children |
|
You're joking me sir the other managed to articulate |
|
He was the leader and Tudor was his lieutenant |
|
You used to joy ride like the very devil |
|
Burke himself had criticized it because of the smile |
|
At once would be instituted a dozen cooperative commonwealth states |
|
Isaac Ford the austere soldier of the Lord the old hypocrite |
|
Saxon's onto her job |
|
This is my fifth voyage |
|
Suppose you saw me at work through the window |
|
If you only could know how I thank you |
|
Below him the shadow was broken into a pool of rippling starlight |
|
He told himself that as he washed himself and groomed his disheveled clothes |
|
It was impossible to hoist sail and claw off that shore |
|
At the same time spears and arrows began to fall among the invaders |
|
This is eighteen eighty |
|
To her the bridge was tambo which is the native for taboo |
|
Production is doubling and quadrupling upon itself |
|
His mouth opened words shaped vainly on his lips |
|
Yes it was a man who asked a stranger |
|
I was in New York when the crash came |
|
Not at this particular case Tom apologized Whittemore |
|
I followed the line of the proposed railroad looking for chances |
|
He drew in a deep breath as he looked at them |
|
Gregson held a lighted match until it burnt his fingertips |
|
Now just what do you want to know |
|
Yea so are all the lesser animals of today clean |
|
But all my dreams violated this law |
|
She had been thoroughly and efficiently mauled |
|
And yet if she came he had no words to say |
|
And there was Ethel Baird whom also you must remember |
|
I have long noted your thirst unquenchable |
|
She obeyed shrinking back with the baby in her arms |
|
The fighting had now become intermittent |
|
It was the same way with our revolvers and rifles |
|
And wherever I ranged the way lay along alcohol drenched roads |
|
The Russian music player the Count was her obedient slave |
|
I'll be out of my head in fifteen minutes |
|
Captain Doane's orders were swiftly obeyed |
|
Sheldon glanced at the thermometer |
|
The night glow was treacherous to shoot by |
|
He was pressing beyond the limits of his vocabulary |
|
It happened to him at the Gallina Society in Oakland one afternoon |
|
He was determined now to maintain a more certain hold upon himself |
|
Fresh meat they failed to obtain |
|
I was sick once typhoid |
|
For the twentieth time that evening the two men shook hands |
|
Mab she said |
|
They must have been swept away by the chaotic currents |
|
Nobody knows how the natives got them |
|
They are his tongue by which he makes his knowledge articulate |
|
He made sure that the magazine was loaded and resumed his paddling |
|
Again he had done the big thing |
|
Your being wrecked here has been a godsend to me |
|
McVeigh when he returns from a trip to Honolulu |
|
He changed his seat for a steamer reclining chair |
|
Suddenly his fingers closed tightly over the handkerchief |
|
Dunham can your boy go along with Jesse |
|
By this time Charley was as enraged as the Greek |
|
He cried in such genuine dismay that she broke into hearty laughter |
|
Any average young fellow can teach himself in a week |
|
Then again Tudor had such an irritating way about him |
|
Wonder if he's a lion dog Charles suggested |
|
Besides had he not whipped the big owl in the forest |
|
I don't know why you're here at all |
|
Oolong was two hundred and fifty miles from the nearest land |
|
We must achieve our own salvation |
|
Also I want information |
|
He saw Jeanne falter for a moment |
|
Ah we were very close together in that moment |
|
At sea Tuesday March seventeenth nineteen o eight |
|
As to how she dressed he had no ideas at all |
|
The skipper's and Na ka tas gymnastics served as a translation without words |
|
Why the average review is more nauseating than cod liver oil |
|
Lord but I'm glad to see you again Phil |
|
In his anxiety and solicitude and love they did not count |
|
Their supply of grub was gone |
|
A big canvas tent was the first thing to come within his vision |
|
The big eyed clucking moose birds were most annoying |
|
It was a curious coincidence |
|
He will follow us soon |
|
You mean for this State General Alberta |
|
Jerry was so secure in his nook that he did not roll away |
|
All this day Gregson remained in the cabin |
|
A half a case of tobacco was worth three pounds |
|
Behind him lay the thousand years long road across all Siberia and Russia |
|
Such men believe when they come together |
|
Nevertheless we found ourselves once more in the high seat of abundance |
|
And watch out for wet feet was his parting advice |
|
It was not Red Eye's way to forego revenge so easily |
|
I have been doubly baptized |
|
Then you don't believe in altruism |
|
I never allow what can't be changed to annoy me |
|
Well did they eat |
|
It was over when he made his way through the ring of spectators |
|
Do you know any good land around here |
|
How in hell did he know it was you in the dark |
|
My name's Ferguson |
|
Beyond refusing to sell us food they left us to ourselves |
|
They could not continue their method of producing surpluses |
|
And as never before he was ready to obey |
|
Jacob Brinker who was his road mate brought the news |
|
I suppose you wonder why she is coming up here |
|
All eyes however were staring at him in certitude of expectancy |
|
Let us run them for ourselves |
|
Men like Joe Goose dated existence from drunk to drunk |
|
I can see that knife now |
|
They die out of spite |
|
Perrault found one with head buried in the grub box |
|
The wolf dog thrust his gaunt muzzle toward him |
|
She was even more beautiful than when I saw her before |
|
He thought he saw a shudder pass through the Factor's shoulders |
|
You you would not keep the truth from me |
|
Pebbles and dirt flew along with hair and fur |
|
He don't catch me at any such foolishness |
|
The time was considered auspicious |
|
Until I die he exclaimed |
|
Among my minor afflictions I may mention a new mysterious one |
|
You're going in for grab sharing |
|
The next thing to watch out for is bed sores |
|
Seventeen no eighteen days ago |
|
Joan cried with shining eyes |
|
For a full minute the two men stared into each other's face |
|
Whatever he guessed he locked away in the taboo room of Naomi |
|
There is another virtue in these bulkheads |
|
A trickle of fresh blood ran over his face |
|
Down through the perfume weighted air fluttered the snowy fluffs of the cottonwoods |
|
After all superfluous flesh is gone what is left is stringy and resistant |
|
Bob growing disgusted turned back suddenly and attempted to pass Mab |
|
Only the chance sound had led him to observe them |
|
Unconsciously our yells and exclamations yielded to this rhythm |
|
He deluged me overwhelmed me with argument |
|
He waded into the edge of the water and began scrubbing himself |
|
As I say he had tapped the message very rapidly |
|
His eyes never took themselves for an instant from his companion's face |
|
He knew what taboos he was violating |
|
Yet he dreams he is immortal I argue feebly |
|
The singing voice approached rapidly |
|
Ask him I laughed then turned to Pasquini |
|
I forgot how easily I had taught myself from the printed page |
|
He was trying to pass a apron string around him |
|
He also contended that better confidence was established by carrying no weapons |
|
Her mouth opened but instead of speaking she drew a long sigh |
|
And after the bath a shave would not be bad |
|
Scarcely had he uttered the name when Pierre's closing eyes shot open |
|
Her achievements with cocoanuts were a revelation |
|
And that was the last of Francois and Perrault |
|
Then he hastened on as Pierre had guided him |
|
And as in denial of guilt the one legged boy replied |
|
Sometimes her dreams were filled with visions |
|
He began to follow the footprints of the dog |
|
My idea was that he would have more influence over the natives |
|
So unexpected was my charge that I knocked him off his feet |
|
I noticed blood spouting from Kerfoot left hand |
|
Each day she became a more vital part of him |
|
He will knock you off a few sticks in no time |
|
Philip produced a couple of cigars and took a chair opposite him |
|
But she swung obediently on her heel into the wind |
|
Fifty yards ahead of her were the first of the rocks |
|
It is also an insidious deceitful sun |
|
Death is and has been ever since old Maui died |
|
Men who endure it call it living death |
|
Surely I will excuse you she cried |
|
And their chief virtue lies in that they will never wear out |
|
I had been born with no organic chemical predisposition toward alcohol |
|
What's that grub thief got to do with it |
|
Philip began to feel that he had foolishly overestimated his strength |
|
He was an enthusiast and a desert dweller |
|
The Oligarchy wanted violence and it set its agents provocateurs to work |
|
At first his progress was slow and erratic |
|
All operations have been carried on from Montreal and Toronto |
|
It was steel a fisher trap |
|
His face was streaming with blood |
|
Instead he joined her and they ate like two hungry children |
|
The President of the United States was his friend |
|
Get down and dig in |
|
Well there are better men in Hawaii that's all |
|
I had been sad too long already |
|
Next to them the Canada jays were most persistent |
|
His hand shot out and clutched Crooked Leg by the neck |
|
I said and dismissed the matter as not worth thinking about |
|
So we have to fit the boat throughout with oil lamps as well |
|
You are positively soulless he said savagely |
|
Call me that again he murmured ecstatically |
|
Captain West may be a Samurai but he is also human |
|
There is no need of further detail now for you can understand |
|
But it won't continue she said with easy confidence |
|
Wada Louis and the steward are servants of Asiatic breed |
|
Shooting pains passed like flashes of electricity through his body |
|
It was my idea to a tee |
|
Give them their choice between a fine or an official whipping |
|
I lost my balance and pitched head foremost into the ooze |
|
I remembered the red wine of the Italian rancho and shuddered inwardly |
|
A little before dawn of the day following the fire relief came |
|
And as we hurried up town Joe Goose explained |
|
The task we set ourselves was threefold |
|
Now Irvine was a man of impulse a poet |
|
Eggshell is not good to eat |
|
The ship should be in within a week or ten days |
|
I also understand that similar branch organizations have made their appearance in Europe |
|
And the Eurasian Chinese Englishman bowed himself away |
|
It was unobtrusive yet it was there |
|
A rising tide of fat had submerged them |
|
I can't argue with you and you know that |
|
I have seen myself that one man contemplated by Pascal's philosophic eye |
|
Philip saw MacDougall soon after his short talk with Thorpe |
|
He spat it out like so much venom |
|
But such divergence of opinion would constitute no menace to society |
|
Gregson shoved back his chair and rose his feet |
|
Men of Selden's stamp don't stop at women and children |
|
The added weight had a velocity of fifteen miles per hour |
|
I saw it all myself and it was splendid |
|
Nobody knew his history they of the Junta least of all |
|
Only it is so wonderful so almost impossible to believe |
|
He is too keenly intelligent too sharply sensitive successfully to endure |
|
There's Fort Churchill a rifle shot beyond the ridge asleep |
|
He heard a sound which brought him quickly into consciousness of day |
|
And the Edinburgh Evening News says with editorial gloom |
|
That is what distinguishes all of us from the lower animals |
|
Shall I carry you |
|
In a way he is my protege |
|
Clubs and balls and cities grew to be only memories |
|
It is a very tenable hypothesis and will bear looking into |
|
I could not agree with Ernest |
|
It fairly clubbed me into recognizing it |
|
He saw all men in business game doing this |
|
Then he shouted Shut up |
|
Ten minutes had not elapsed since he had dropped the handkerchief |
|
Points of view new ideas life |
|
That was why I am am rattled he laughed |
|
Your face was the personification of duplicity |
|
It drowned all sound that brute agony and death may have made |
|
I want to know how all this is possible |
|
In partnership with Daylight the pair raided the San Jose Interurban |
|
But this little defect did not worry him |
|
I I beg pardon he drawled |
|
This one hope was destroyed as quickly as it was born |
|
Your father's fifth command he nodded |
|
They are not biologists nor sociologists |
|
Daughtry elaborated on the counting trick by bringing Cocky along |
|
And you always want to see it in the superlative degree |
|
The twenty ninth very foggy |
|
The Portuguese boy passed the Hawaiian |
|
What Pascal glimpsed with the vision of a seer I have lived |
|
They handled two men already both grub thieves |
|
Also she has forbidden them smoking their pipes in the after room |
|
Darkness hid him from Jeanne |
|
The ringing of the big bell aroused him |
|
Once the jews harp began emitting its barbaric rhythms Michael was helpless |
|
Since then some mysterious force has been fighting us at every step |
|
Robbery bribery fraud |
|
It will break our hearts and our backs to hoist anchor by hand |
|
Daylight was tired profoundly tired |
|
In a flash Philip followed its direction |
|
He caught himself with a jerk |
|
There's the hitch replied Thorpe rolling a cigarette |
|
The girl faced him her eyes shining with sudden fear |
|
In spite of their absurdity the words affected Philip curiously |
|
Man could not conquer them |
|
No it's a palace wherein there are many servants |
|
Bill lingered contemplating his work with artistic appreciation |
|
There was pride and strength the ring of triumph in his voice |
|
The Japanese understood as we could never school ourselves or hope to understand |
|
Instead he arrived on the night of the second day |
|
Much more Ernest told them of themselves and of his disillusionment |
|
I was Hump cabin boy on the schooner Ghost |
|
Tudor surveyed him with withering disgust |
|
I tried to read George Moore last night and was dreadfully bored |
|
It was the rendezvous of those who were striving to work his ruin |
|
I can't follow you she said |
|
I use great trouble advisedly |
|
Does that look good |
|
Or have they already devised one |
|
A month in Australia would finish me |
|
Red Eye swung back and forth on the branch farther down |
|
Jeanne and Pierre both gazed toward the great rock |
|
It was a temptation but he resisted it |
|
There's not an iota of truth in it |
|
This the Iron Heel foresaw and laid its schemes accordingly |
|
Philip snatched at the letter which Gregson held out to him |
|
There's no chivalry no quarter shown in this fight |
|
Gad your letter came just in time |
|
They are coming ashore whoever they are |
|
We are consumed in our own flesh pots |
|
He seemed to fill it with his tremendous vitality |
|
Good business man Curly O'Brien was saying |
|
Her words sent a strange chill through Philip |
|
Why should a fellow throw up the sponge after the first round |
|
You were making them talk shop Ruth charged him |
|
We are cooking on the coal stove and on the oil burners |
|
You were going to leave after you saw me on the rock |
|
Your face is red with blood |
|
He was sure now of but few things |
|
And now behold the perversity of things |
|
A combination of Canadian capital quickly organized and petitioned for the same privileges |
|
There was nothing more except a large ink blot under the words |
|
He had observed the business life of Hawaii and developed a vaulting ambition |
|
Now our figuring was all right |
|
He may anticipate the day of his death |
|
It does was her audacious answer |
|
I have to be careful of them as they tear very easily |
|
He unfolded a long typewritten letter and handed it to Gregson |
|
Thought I and a worthy fool he proved |
|
He came first a year ago and revealed himself to Jeanne |
|
I'd sooner have my chips back |
|
He says he bought him of Jacques Le Beau |
|
Sandel would never become a world champion |
|
It was put together in a casual helter skelter sort of way |
|
Whiz zip bang Lop Ear screamed with sudden anguish |
|
Dig in you're sure good was Daylight's answer |
|
Now it was missing from the wall |
|
They do not know the length of time of incubation |
|
Ah it was sweet in my ears |
|
I will give a thousand if you produce her retorted Gregson |
|
Accept a father's blessing and with it this |
|
This tacit promise of continued acquaintance gave Saxon a little joy thrill |
|
I arose obediently and went down the beach |
|
We don't see ourselves as foolish |
|
Let them go out and eat with my boys |
|
Some boy she laughed acquiescence |
|
The hunters were still arguing and roaring like some semi human amphibious breed |
|
They had been on the same lay as ourselves |
|
They are greatly delighted with anything that is bright or giveth a sound |
|
He gave one last snarl and slid from view among the trees |
|
But in the canyons water was plentiful and also a luxuriant forest growth |
|
There's a big English general right now whose name is Roberts |
|
The history of our westward faring race is written in it |
|
Encouraged by my conduct Big Face became a sudden ally |
|
There was something pathetic in the girl's attitude now |
|
And then steadily he began to chew |
|
The farmer works the soil and produces grain |
|
He cried and swung the club wildly |
|
I have hunted along this ridge replied Philip |
|
No man ate of the seal meat or the oil |
|
As for himself weren't the street railway earnings increasing steadily |
|
You see we were teaching ourselves |
|
They were deep in the primeval forest |
|
For an instant he saw Pierre drawn like a silhouette against the sky |
|
Some of the smaller veins had doubtless been ruptured |
|
His teeth shut with a last click |
|
Lots of men take women buggy riding |
|
That's the sub foreman explained Thorpe |
|
So was Packard's finish suicide |
|
And he was filled with a strange and foreboding fear |
|
He seized Gregson by the arm and led him to the door |
|
The boy hesitated then mastered his temper |
|
All eyes however were staring at him in certitude of expectancy |
|
Christmas is an easy problem compared with a Polynesian giving feast |
|
And MacDougall was beyond the trail with three weeks to spare |
|
And here's another idea |
|
Her mouth opened but instead of speaking she drew a long sigh |
|
His hand shot out and clutched Crooked Leg by the neck |
|
It was like the beating of hoofs |
|
At this moment I felt a stir at my shoulder |
|
His partners had starved and died on the Stewart |
|
Blind with rage he darted in |
|
Philip bent lower and stared into the face of the dead man |
|
They obeyed him and went here and there at his commands |
|
The sixth day he spent in the cabin with Gregson |
|
The ringing of the big bell aroused him |
|
Please do not think that I already know it all |
|
It was beating and waiting in the ambush of those black pits |
|
I defy any man to get a Solomon Island sore in California |
|
Enjoy it he did but principally for Steward's sake |
|
You have all the advantage |
|
It was a temptation but he resisted it |
|
We could throw stones with our feet |
|
The Warden with a quart of champagne |
|
Broken Tooth yelled with fright and pain |
|
It is not an attempt to smash the market |
|
This also became part of the daily schedule |
|
I saw it all myself and it was splendid |
|
He plodded on for half an hour when the hallucination arose again |
|
There was the Emma Louisa |
|
Goodbye Pierre he shouted |
|
Fresh cases still able to walk they clustered about the spokesman |
|
His mouth opened words shaped vainly on his lips |
|
Miss Brodie's smile was slightly sarcastic |
|
Then he stepped back with a low cry of pleasure |
|
I'll tell you the librarian said with a brightening face |
|
They just lay off in the bush and plugged away |
|
They were the presage of storm |
|
What I saw I could not at first believe |
|
He placed his paw on one and its movements were accelerated |
|
Both Johnny and his mother shuffled their feet as they walked |
|
You mean for this State General Alberta |
|
I graduated last of my class |
|
This sound did not disturb the hush and awe of the place |
|
And now down there Eileen was waiting for him |
|
He looked at the handkerchief more closely |
|
I'm going down there with you and I'm going to fight |
|
But ever his gaze returned to that Crouched Venus on the piano |
|
It was my reports from the north which chiefly induced people to buy |
|
He may anticipate the day of his death |
|
In moments of mental energy Philip was restless |
|
We will have to watch our chances |
|
A scarlet loincloth |
|
In a flash Philip followed its direction |
|
There has been a change she interrupted him |
|
Who the devil gave it to you to be judge and jury |
|
He saw all men in business game doing this |
|
Had it struck squarely it would have killed him |
|
Of course that is uninteresting she continued |
|
How could I answer the question on the spur of the moment |
|
I pulled suddenly with all my might |
|
All an appearance can know is mirage |
|
He was the soul of devotion to his employers |
|
Her beautiful hair was done up in shining coils |
|
Your face was the personification of duplicity |
|
And he was filled with a strange and foreboding fear |
|
The Indian felt the worship of her warm in his heart |
|
How old are you mother |
|
Yet in accordance with Ernest's test of truth it worked |
|
For that reason Le Beau had chosen him to fight the big fight |
|
You are positively soulless he said savagely |
|
He bit his tongue and cursed himself at the fresh break |
|
They were less stooped than we less springy in their movements |
|
Shorty turned to their employers |
|
The last refugee had passed |
|
He will knock you off a few sticks in no time |
|
Ah indeed |
|
God bless 'em I hope I will go on seeing them forever |
|
With them were Indians also three other men |
|
Fifty yards ahead of her were the first of the rocks |
|
Wada Louis and the steward are servants of Asiatic breed |
|
You're joking me sir the other managed to articulate |
|
They laughed like two happy children |
|
Only the chance sound had led him to observe them |
|
The planters are already considering the matter |
|
Besides had he not whipped the big owl in the forest |
|
Also I want information |
|
Earth and gravel seemed to fill the pan |
|
Don't you see I'm chewing this thing in two |
|
In it was the joy of life |
|
Not a wheel moved in his empire |
|
OW a wild dog he growled |
|
It issued a rate of forty two dollars a car on charcoal |
|
M'Coy found a stifling poisonous atmosphere in the pent cabin |
|
That was why I am am rattled he laughed |
|
It's the aurora borealis |
|
There was no answer from the other side |
|
O'Brien had been a clean living young man with ideals |
|
Mops sir eagerly answered the sailor at the wheel |
|
He had peeled off his shirt and was wildly waving it |
|
But in the canyons water was plentiful and also a luxuriant forest growth |
|
The lush vegetation of that sheltered spot make a natural shield |
|
That is what distinguishes all of us from the lower animals |
|
A month passed by and Bonanza Creek remained quiet |
|
We leave the eventuality to time and law |
|
It was sanctification and salvation |
|
And the foundation stone of service in his case was obedience |
|
It was a miracle and I owe you my life |
|
I tried to read George Moore last night and was dreadfully bored |
|
What an excited whispering and conferring took place |
|
Burnt out like the crater of a volcano |
|
It seemed the ordained order of things that dogs should work |
|
Bill lingered contemplating his work with artistic appreciation |
|
It would give me nervous prostration |
|
Whiz zip bang Lop Ear screamed with sudden anguish |
|
Gregson shoved back his chair and rose his feet |
|
We would not spend another such night |
|
He was just bursting with joy joy over what |
|
Straight out they swam their heads growing smaller and smaller |
|
But it contributed to the smash |
|
No it's a palace wherein there are many servants |
|
They were babbling and chattering all together |
|
Before Philip could recover him Jeanne's startled guards were upon him |
|
I suppose you wonder why she is coming up here |
|
By golly the boy wins |
|
Three oilers and a fourth engineer was his greeting |
|
It seems like a strange pointing of the hand of God |
|
His slim hands gripped the edges of the table |
|
If I was out of the game it would be easily made |
|
Tomorrow it will be strong enough for you to stand upon |
|
The awe of man rushed over him again |
|
I can't go elsewhere by your own account |
|
Then it was that a strange thing happened |
|
Youth had come back to her freed from the yoke of oppression |
|
And now put yourself in my place for a moment |
|
His freshly caught furs he flung to the floor |
|
I have hunted along this ridge replied Philip |
|
His previous wives had never lived long enough to bear him children |
|
In the car were Unwin and Harrison while Jones sat with the chauffeur |
|
Suddenly his fingers closed tightly over the handkerchief |
|
You used to joy ride like the very devil |
|
There was something pathetic in the girl's attitude now |
|
See the length of the body and that elongated neck |
|
King took every advantage he knew |
|
In a way he is my protege |
|
In the matter of curry she is a sheer genius |
|
She obeyed shrinking back with the baby in her arms |
|
He is too keenly intelligent too sharply sensitive successfully to endure |
|
But he no longer cared quite so much for that form of diversion |
|
Captain Doane's orders were swiftly obeyed |
|
Thought I and a worthy fool he proved |
|
His beady black eyes saw bargains where other men saw bankruptcy |
|
A month in Australia would finish me |
|
I lost my balance and pitched head foremost into the ooze |
|
He seemed to fill it with his tremendous vitality |
|
I may manage to freight a cargo back as well |
|
Society is shaken to its foundations |
|
From now on we're pals |
|
He destroyed everything that had belonged to the woman |
|
The scents of strange vegetation blew off the tropic land |
|
That's the sub foreman explained Thorpe |
|
Perrault found one with head buried in the grub box |
|
He glanced down at her helplessly and moistened his lips |
|
I'm playing a single hand in what looks like a losing game |
|
Meanwhile I will go out to breathe a spell |
|
This state of mind comes of an undue prominence of the ego |
|
About him everywhere were the evidences of luxury and of age |
|
He read his fragments aloud |
|
The fighting had now become intermittent |
|
He was an athlete and a giant |
|
I know that you are in charge there and Jeanne knows |
|
Typhoid did I tell you |
|
He bore no grudges and had few enemies |
|
Though the aurora still flamed another day had begun |
|
The more his opponents grew excited the more Ernest deliberately excited them |
|
They ought to pass here some time today |
|
As I say he had tapped the message very rapidly |
|
Tom Spink has a harpoon |
|
And twenty men could hold it with spears and arrows |
|
But here amongst ourselves let us speak out |
|
The Oligarchy will encourage such ambition and the consequent competition |
|
I noticed blood spouting from Kerfoot left hand |
|
And Raoul listened again to the tale of the house |
|
But there was no longer the mother yearning in his heart |
|
Jeanne and Pierre both gazed toward the great rock |
|
And now behold the perversity of things |
|
Lord but I'm glad to see you again Phil |
|
Then you don't believe in altruism |
|
Eli Harding asked as Shunk started to follow |
|
Here we allow our solicitors to look after our legal work |
|
Also she wouldn't walk |
|
Poor little Crooked Leg was terribly scared |
|
Philip had delivered himself through the maelstrom |
|
Jack London Waikiki Beach Honolulu Oahu |
|
I'd sooner have my chips back |
|
And you always want to see it in the superlative degree |
|
Quick was the disappointment in his face yet smiling was the acquiescence |
|
The butchers and meat cutters refused to handle meat destined for unfair restaurants |
|
Famine had been my great ally |
|
But Martin smiled a superior smile |
|
But a strange thing happened |
|
He was an enthusiast and a desert dweller |
|
Accept a father's blessing and with it this |
|
By virtue of that power we shall remain in power |
|
You should have seen them when they heard me spitting Chinook |
|
Nobody knows how the natives got them |
|
He wondered too where Roscoe was |
|
There is no need of further detail now for you can understand |
|
Peace be unto you and grace before the Lord |
|
Your being wrecked here has been a godsend to me |
|
He would keep his faith with Gregson for the promised day or two |
|
They likewise are disinclined to being eaten |
|
Death is and has been ever since old Maui died |
|
There is more behind this than a mere university ideal |
|
That's what Carnegie did |
|
They were deep in the primeval forest |
|
Perhaps she had already met her fate a little deeper in the forest |
|
You're a devil for fighting and will surely win |
|
The Gabriel voice of the Samurai rang out |
|
I had forgotten their existence |
|
I saw it when she rolled |
|
As to how she dressed he had no ideas at all |
|
He will follow us soon |
|
It was a large canoe |
|
Then he shouted Shut up |
|
The Fire Men wore animal skins around their waists and across their shoulders |
|
It's merely the simple superlative |
|
Now our figuring was all right |
|
Her own betrayal of herself was like tonic to Philip |
|
He had been born with this endowment |
|
Together they ate the rabbit |
|
Shall I carry you |
|
And I hope you've got plenty of chain out Captain Young |
|
He was the leader and Tudor was his lieutenant |
|
It is very plausible to such people a most convincing hypothesis |
|
Wonder if he's a lion dog Charles suggested |
|
It drowned all sound that brute agony and death may have made |
|
Dunham can your boy go along with Jesse |
|
There was pride and strength the ring of triumph in his voice |
|
They were artists not biologists |
|
They robbed me a few years later |
|
But there came no promise from the bow of the canoe |
|
I can't argue with you and you know that |
|
He waded into the edge of the water and began scrubbing himself |
|
Surely I will excuse you she cried |
|
Not till the twentieth of May did the river break |
|
It was a curious coincidence |
|
Now Irvine was a man of impulse a poet |
|
Ah it's growing dark and darker |
|
But it won't continue she said with easy confidence |
|
There was proper division of labor in the work they individually performed |
|
Man could not conquer them |
|
I tell you I am disgusted with this adventure tomfoolery and rot |
|
Thus had the raw wilderness prepared him for this day |
|
Their supply of grub was gone |
|
It was Jeanne singing softly over beyond the rocks |
|
The farmer works the soil and produces grain |
|
Massage under tension was the cryptic reply |
|
One by one the boys were captured |
|
He moved his position and the illusion was gone |
|
The creative joy I murmured |
|
There was nothing more except a large ink blot under the words |
|
He had fulfilled his duty and paid properly |
|
But I did not enjoy it long |
|
Violation of this law was made a high misdemeanor and punished accordingly |
|
It was introduced by Representative Dick of Ohio |
|
Get down and dig in |
|
They die out of spite |
|
Nobody knew his history they of the Junta least of all |
|
I was beneath the water suffocating and drowning |
|
It will break our hearts and our backs to hoist anchor by hand |
|
The added weight had a velocity of fifteen miles per hour |
|
I'll see to poor Hughie |
|
We are consumed in our own flesh pots |
|
The mob came on but it could not advance |
|
The history of our westward faring race is written in it |
|
The Portuguese boy crawled nearer and nearer |
|
He can care for himself |
|
I forgot how easily I had taught myself from the printed page |
|
They closed now until his fingers were like cords of steel |
|
Good business man Curly O'Brien was saying |
|
It was a gigantic inadequacy |
|
Down there the earth was already swelling with life |
|
On occasion on this traverse the Cape Verde Islands are raised |
|
You were going to leave after you saw me on the rock |
|
Do you know any good land around here |
|
There is that magnificent Bob eating his head off in the stable |
|
He cried in such genuine dismay that she broke into hearty laughter |
|
Then you can arrange yourself comfortably among these robes in the bow |
|
She is essentially the life giving life conserving female of the species |
|
She had died from cold and starvation |
|
The hunters were still arguing and roaring like some semi human amphibious breed |
|
But this little defect did not worry him |
|
Yet behind them there was another and more powerful motive |
|
He drew in a deep breath as he looked at them |
|
MacDougall my engineer believes it |
|
The very thing Ernest agreed |
|
Did Thorpe go to see any one in Churchill |
|
In short my joyous individualism was dominated by the orthodox bourgeois ethics |
|
Clubs and balls and cities grew to be only memories |
|
Beyond dispute Corry Hutchinson had married Mabel Holmes |
|
The men stared into each other's face |
|
They only had a little thirty thousand dollar fire |
|
Won't you draw up gentlemen |
|
Dennin's hands were released long enough for him to sign the document |
|
Very early in my life I separated from my mother |
|
Philip ate lightly of the food which Pierre had ready for him |
|
That is the strange part of it |
|
Here in the midmorning the first casualty occurred |
|
The stout wood was crushed like an eggshell |
|
You were looking squeamish this afternoon he began |
|
Yet he dreams he is immortal I argue feebly |
|
I like to speculate upon the glorious future of man |
|
Pearce's little eyes were fixed on him shrewdly |
|
Fast but endure |
|
Much more Ernest told them of themselves and of his disillusionment |
|
It was my idea to a tee |
|
It was not exactly a deportation |
|
And there was Ethel Baird whom also you must remember |
|
And as never before he was ready to obey |
|
Scarcely had he uttered the name when Pierre's closing eyes shot open |
|
If you only could know how I thank you |
|
I had faith in them |
|
My I'm almost homesick for it already |
|
It was edged with ice |
|
The history of the eighteenth century is written Ernest prompted |
|
He gave one last snarl and slid from view among the trees |
|
To these he gave castor oil |
|
But she had become an automaton |
|
He had heard always how he was the lover of the Princess Naomi |
|
I'm as good as a man she urged |
|
Change chairs Daylight commanded |
|
This time he did not yap for mercy |
|
For a full half minute Jeanne looked at him without speaking |
|
But this time it was Saxon who rebelled |
|
For the rest he was a mere automaton |
|
At Lake Linderman I had one canoe very good Peterborough canoe |
|
Behind him lay the thousand years long road across all Siberia and Russia |
|
Two days ago Jeanne learned where her father's men were hiding |
|
At sea Wednesday March eighteenth nineteen o eight |
|
His reward should have been peace and repose |
|
The girl faced him her eyes shining with sudden fear |
|
He loved to play Chinese lottery |
|
My age in years is twenty two |
|
Think of investing in such an adventure |
|
It occurred to me that there would have to be an accounting |
|
I wish you were more adaptable Joan retorted |
|
For a full minute he crouched and listened |
|
You won't die of malnutrition be sure of that |
|
His slim fingers closed like steel about Philip's |
|
The flower of the artistic and intellectual world were revolutionists |
|
But Johannes could and did |
|
O'Brien took off his coat and bared his right arm |
|
He heard a sound which brought him quickly into consciousness of day |
|
There's Fort Churchill a rifle shot beyond the ridge asleep |
|
Also churches and preachers I had never known |
|
Isaac Ford the austere soldier of the Lord the old hypocrite |
|
But to culture the Revolution thus far had exhausted the Junta |
|
He was manifestly distressed by my coming |
|
He would destroy all things that are fixed |
|
There's a big English general right now whose name is Roberts |
|
The Russian music player the Count was her obedient slave |
|
These were merely stout sticks an inch or so in diameter |
|
Only it is so wonderful so almost impossible to believe |
|
He looked like one who had passed through an uncomfortable hour or two |
|
From that moment his friendship for Belize turns to hatred and jealousy |
|
Wada and Na ka ta were in a bit of a funk |
|
The flush was gone from her face |
|
It is growing every day every hour |
|
I think it's much nicer to quarrel |
|
He was wounded in the arm |
|
The singing voice approached rapidly |
|
The emotion which she had suppressed burst forth now in a choking sob |
|
Their forces were already moving into the north country |
|
Yea I will tell thee |
|
A bush chief had died a natural death |
|
It was over when he made his way through the ring of spectators |
|
Some one had thrust a large sheath knife into his hand |
|
And Tom King patiently endured |
|
It took him half an hour to reach the edge of it |
|
I should like to engage just for one whole life in that |
|
You yellow giant thing of the frost |
|
Idealism led him to philosophic anarchy and his family threw him off |
|
You were making them talk shop Ruth charged him |
|
Two years ago I gave up civilization for this |
|
Call me that again he murmured ecstatically |
|
Nor was Elam Harnish an exception |
|
You were destroying my life |
|
So unexpected was my charge that I knocked him off his feet |
|
To say the least Captain Cook was a rather thorough going empiricist |
|
Between him and all domestic animals there must be no hostilities |
|
The Japanese understood as we could never school ourselves or hope to understand |
|
Her face was against his breast |
|
Outwardly he maintained a calm and smiling aspect |
|
Every bone in her aged body seemed broken or dislocated |
|
She was sleeping under his protection as sweetly as a child |
|
I will go over tomorrow afternoon |
|
With my strength I slammed it full into Red Eye's face |
|
The Indian even poked his stick into the thick ground spruce |
|
He boiled himself some coffee and sat down to wait |
|
She had been thoroughly and efficiently mauled |
|
The Law of Club and Fang |
|
So Hughie and I did the managing ourselves |
|
This tacit promise of continued acquaintance gave Saxon a little joy thrill |
|
Well did they eat |
|
Here the explosion of mirth drowned him out |
|
He chuckled as he pulled out his pipe and began filling it |
|
She was built primarily to sail |
|
Unconsciously our yells and exclamations yielded to this rhythm |
|
There was none of the joy of meeting in his face |
|
The time was considered auspicious |
|
Beyond refusing to sell us food they left us to ourselves |
|
The boy O'Brien was specially maltreated |
|
He unfolded a long typewritten letter and handed it to Gregson |
|
Already he had begun borrowing from the banks |
|
Then again Tudor had such an irritating way about him |
|
He could feel a new stir in the land |
|
Oh it's just a novel a love story |
|
The woman in you is only incidental accidental and irrelevant |
|
I came for information more out of curiosity than anything else |
|
He did not believe in the burning of daylight for such a luxury |
|
It won't be for sale |
|
The man smiled grimly and brought a hatchet and a club |
|
Nowhere did the raw earth appear |
|
He gave no reason but his motive was obvious enough |
|
Now just what do you want to know |
|
Why the average review is more nauseating than cod liver oil |
|
I can see that knife now |
|
What was the object of your little sensation |
|
Close beside him gleamed the white fangs of the wolf dog |
|
One guess will do Ernest retorted |
|
His eyes smiled truth at him as he came up the bank |
|
The women they carried away with them to the Big Valley |
|
A moment before he was intoxicated by a joy that was almost madness |
|
That's where they cut off the Scottish Chiefs and killed all hands |
|
Violent life and athletic sports had never appealed to me |
|
I arose obediently and went down the beach |
|
Philip thrust himself against it and entered |
|
Now these things had been struck dead within him |
|
There were stir and bustle new faces and fresh facts |
|
Again he had done the big thing |
|
It resembled tea less than lager beer resembles champagne |
|
Curly rushed her antagonist who struck again and leaped aside |
|
Thus was momentum gained in the Younger World |
|
He will never do a tap of work the whole Voyage |
|
He had barely entered this when he saw the glow of a fire |
|
Philip knew that she was not an Indian |
|
It happened to him at the Gallina Society in Oakland one afternoon |
|
Then it is as I said Womble announced with finality |
|
So far as flags were concerned they were beyond all jurisdiction |
|
Such things in her brain were like so many oaths on her lips |
|
If you mean to insinuate Brentwood began hotly |
|
I did not think you would be so early |
|
And there was a dog that barked |
|
There is another virtue in these bulkheads |
|
To my dearest and always appreciated friend I submit myself |
|
And each year something happened and I did not go |
|
But why continue the tirade for tirade it was |
|
Sometimes her dreams were filled with visions |
|
These quick little joys of hers were sources of joy to him |
|
By that answer my professional medical prestige stood or fell |
|
How much was it |
|
Ahead of them they saw a glimmer of sunshine |
|
No man ate of the seal meat or the oil |
|
And so early in the voyage too |
|
He saw only the effect in a general sketchy way |
|
Red Eye never committed a more outrageous deed |
|
She turned fearing that Jacques might see what was in her face |
|
Also a fellow Senator Chauncey Depew said |
|
Saxon waited for she knew a fresh idea had struck Billy |
|
Her gray eyes were flashing and her lips were quivering |
|
We don't see ourselves as foolish |
|
A big canvas tent was the first thing to come within his vision |
|
The temperature dropped to fifty below zero and remained there the whole trip |
|
The President of the United States was his friend |
|
He was fond of quoting a fragment from a certain poem |
|
It was unobtrusive yet it was there |
|
No sir ee |
|
There's too much of the schoolboy in me |
|
Unlike Joshua he stood in no need of divine assistance |
|
I was still weak from my prolonged immersion |
|
And he thought of Oona and of her words |
|
Ah it was sweet in my ears |
|
But already he had composed himself |
|
Or have they already devised one |
|
A low bush whipped him in the face and left no sting |
|
I'm writing these lines in Honolulu Hawaii |
|
What Pascal glimpsed with the vision of a seer I have lived |
|
The Fire People like ourselves lived in caves |
|
The boy grew and prospered |
|
Besides he was paid one case of tobacco per head |
|
It's only his indigestion I find fault with |
|
Now animals do not like mockery |
|
I sailed third mate in the little Vampire before you were born |
|
The promoter's eyes were heavy with little puffy bags under them |
|
I remembered the red wine of the Italian rancho and shuddered inwardly |
|
It was strap hangers that will keep us from going under |
|
I never saw anything like her in my life |
|
Two of the Folk were already up |
|
When I came to I was waving my hat and murmuring ecstatically |
|
I had been sad too long already |
|
At first he puzzled over something untoward he was sure had happened |
|
In partnership with Daylight the pair raided the San Jose Interurban |
|
So we have to fit the boat throughout with oil lamps as well |
|
I never allow what can't be changed to annoy me |
|
It is the fire partly she said |
|
The log on which Lop Ear was lying got adrift |
|
He understood the meaning of the look |
|
O'Brien emitted a shriek that sank swiftly to a gurgling sob |
|
We never made another migration |
|
Of course much grumbling went on and little outbursts were continually occurring |
|
Outsiders are allowed five minute speeches the sick man urged |
|
Dig in you're sure good was Daylight's answer |
|
Let them go out and eat with my boys |
|
The reorganization of these countries took the form of revolution |
|
And then steadily he began to chew |
|
Some boy she laughed acquiescence |
|
Many other similar disconcerting omissions will be noticed in the Manuscript |
|
Ask him I laughed then turned to Pasquini |
|
At sea Tuesday March seventeenth nineteen o eight |
|
As for himself weren't the street railway earnings increasing steadily |
|
He wanted to give the finish to this foe already so far gone |
|
He don't catch me at any such foolishness |
|
I was brought up the way most girls in Hawaii are brought up |
|
I saw Mister Pike nod his head grimly and sarcastically |
|
It was the rendezvous of those who were striving to work his ruin |
|
Swiftly his eyes measured the situation |
|
Whitefish Gregson whitefish and trout |
|
The last one I knew was an overseer |
|
They handled two men already both grub thieves |
|
They are to attack your camp tomorrow night |
|
Thus he turned the tenets and jargon of psychology back on me |
|
To my surprise he began to show actual enthusiasm in my favor |
|
We have plenty of capital ourselves and yet we want more |
|
Only once did I confide the strangeness of it all to another |
|
Between the rush of the cascades streaks of rust showed everywhere |
|
They continued valiantly to lie but the truth continued to outrun them |
|
The eastern heavens were equally spectacular |
|
Author of the danger trail Philip Steels and etc |
|
For the twentieth time that evening the two men shook hands |
|
He was a wise hyena |
|
Enters now the psychology of the situation |
|
The truth of it set Jeanne quivering |
|
But she swung obediently on her heel into the wind |
|
What's that grub thief got to do with it |
|
This the Iron Heel foresaw and laid its schemes accordingly |
|
In that case he could not miss them if he used caution |
|
We were now good friends |
|
Don't you see I hate you |
|
You must sleep he urged |
|
Philip didn't pursue the subject |
|
Her achievements with cocoanuts were a revelation |
|
They have won popular sentiment through the newspapers |
|
We are both children together |
|
He says he bought him of Jacques Le Beau |
|
Horses and rifles had been her toys camp and trail her nursery |
|
My idea was that he would have more influence over the natives |
|
There was no forecasting this strange girl's processes |
|
You're going in for grab sharing |
|
And as we hurried up town Joe Goose explained |
|
And the Edinburgh Evening News says with editorial gloom |
|
When I can't see beauty in woman I want to die |
|
Never so strange a prophet came up to Jerusalem |
|
But if Pierre didn't return until tomorrow |
|
Manuel had one besetting sin |
|
Blood was oozing slowly from the wounded man's right breast |
|
I was in New York when the crash came |
|
I was near the cabin and saw you |
|
Much replied Jeanne as tersely |
|
There was no law on the Yukon save what they made for themselves |
|
Your price my son is just about thirty per week |
|
It lasted as a deterrent for two days |
|
The big eyed clucking moose birds were most annoying |
|
It was a superb picture |
|
There was nothing on the rock |
|
It would help to tide me along until I got steady employment |
|
If I meet her again I shall apologize said Eileen |
|
Hatred and murder and lust for revenge they possessed to overflowing |
|
The other felt a sudden wave of irritation rush through him |
|
Saxon's onto her job |
|
She was even more beautiful than when I saw her before |
|
I do not blame you for anything remember that |
|
Jerry was so secure in his nook that he did not roll away |
|
A shadow was creeping over Pierre's eyes |
|
I have been doubly baptized |
|
Ernest saw in the affair the most sinister import |
|
It was the third or fourth time that Philip had heard MacDougall swear |
|
Tomorrow I'm going after that bear he said |
|
Captain West may be a Samurai but he is also human |
|
He also contended that better confidence was established by carrying no weapons |
|
Then and at supper he tried to fathom her |
|
We who have endured so much surely can endure a little more |
|
Philip took a step toward Gregson half determined to awaken him |
|
Philip began to feel that he had foolishly overestimated his strength |
|
At once would be instituted a dozen cooperative commonwealth states |
|
But who was Eileen's double |
|
Soaked in seawater they offset the heat rays |
|
He was worth nothing to the world |
|
I could not agree with Ernest |
|
They look as though he had been drumming a piano all his life |
|
Men like Joe Goose dated existence from drunk to drunk |
|
We had been chased by them ourselves more than once |
|
Next to them the Canada jays were most persistent |
|
All right Sir replied Jock with great regret |
|
The Portuguese boy passed the Hawaiian |
|
Such an act was in direct violation of the laws of the land |
|
It fairly clubbed me into recognizing it |
|
A wildly exciting time was his during the week preceding Thursday the eighteenth |
|
The regret in his voice was provocative of a second burst of laughter |
|
Everything was working smoothly better than I had expected |
|
He had proved it today with his amateurish and sophomoric productions |
|
There are no kiddies and half grown youths among them |
|
Pierre obeys me when we are together |
|
He changed his seat for a steamer reclining chair |
|
At times I wondered where Sir Archibald got his style |
|
Shooting pains passed like flashes of electricity through his body |
|
Obviously it was a disease that could be contracted by contact |
|
It was his intention to return to Eileen and her father |
|
There are the canals of China and the Yangtse River |
|
At the same time spears and arrows began to fall among the invaders |
|
But they make the mistake of ignoring their own duality |
|
There are four all low M'Coy answered |
|
Philip looked back from the crest and saw Jeanne leaning over the canoe |
|
If not let's say our prayers and go to bed |
|
Jacob Brinker who was his road mate brought the news |
|
I obeyed and a minute or two later they stood before him |
|
Does that look good |
|
Within himself he called it no longer his own |
|
The lines were now very taut |
|
You were engaged |
|
It does was her audacious answer |
|
McVeigh when he returns from a trip to Honolulu |
|
Each improvement makes the value of everything else pump up |
|
Such things had occurred before he told Philip |
|
They edged nearer and stood shoulder to shoulder facing their world |
|
It was put together in a casual helter skelter sort of way |
|
He didn't rush in |
|
He was sure now of but few things |
|
This is no place for you |
|
A trickle of fresh blood ran over his face |
|
Sheldon glanced at the thermometer |
|
Take my advice and accept the vacation |
|
Soon shall it be thrust back from off prostrate humanity |
|
I was Hump cabin boy on the schooner Ghost |
|
He deluged me overwhelmed me with argument |
|
It's that much junk |
|
With these arguments he convinced himself that he should go on alone |
|
Did I possess too much vitality |
|
And when you come back in a few days bring Eileen |
|
It was steel a fisher trap |
|
He caught himself with a jerk |
|
The dirk mentioned by Wolf Larsen rested in its sheath on my hip |
|
So was Packard's finish suicide |
|
And their chief virtue lies in that they will never wear out |
|
You see we were teaching ourselves |
|
I was completely lost in my work |
|
But how are you going to do it |
|
The Claudine was leaving next morning for Honolulu |
|
Illuminating oil was becoming all profit |
|
He did not know what went on in the minds of his superiors |
|
I can't follow you she said |
|
After all it was simply a mistake in judgment |
|
He turned sharply and faced Gregson across the table |
|
He had no excuse for the feelings which were aroused in him |
|
They were following the shore of a lake |
|
To her the bridge was tambo which is the native for taboo |
|
In what bucolic school of fence he had been taught was beyond imagining |
|
The night glow was treacherous to shoot by |
|
Now run along and tell them to hurry |
|
She was his now forever |
|
Billinger may arrive in time |
|
Philip made no effort to follow |
|
The night was calm and snowy |
|
The Eldorado emptied its occupants into the street to see the test |
|
There was a change now |
|
You you would not keep the truth from me |
|
The Churchill narrowed and its current became swifter as they progressed |
|
There was one difficulty however |
|
The voyage was our idea of a good time |
|
I'll only be in the way |
|
For an instant he saw Pierre drawn like a silhouette against the sky |
|
For the first time in his life he was yearning for a scrap |
|
I'm going to surprise father and you will go with Pierre |
|
What part of the United States is your home |
|
In a flash he was on his feet facing him |
|
Zilla relaxed her sour mouth long enough to sigh her satisfaction |
|
Mab she said |
|
And that was the last of Francois and Perrault |
|
Here he got a fresh thrill |
|
Why doggone you all shake again |
|
For a full minute the two men stared into each other's face |
|
He it was that lived to found the family of the Patino |
|
Too much he told me with ominous rolling head |
|
There was nothing for us but the wide raw ocean |
|
Hans hurled himself upon the prostrate man striking madly with his fists |
|
And you preferred a cannibal isle and a cartridge belt |
|
It seemed nearer to him since he had seen and talked with Gregson |
|
We fished sharks on Niihau together |
|
In the crib the baby sat up and began to prattle |
|
Now you're coming down to business Phil he exclaimed |
|
He had become a man very early in life |
|
We got few vegetables and fruits and became fish eaters |
|
Cameron looked at his hands with their long sinewy fingers |
|
Why he's bought forty pounds of goods from you already |
|
He saw the answer in his face |
|
Seventeen no eighteen days ago |
|
How can you manage all alone Mister Young |
|
He came first a year ago and revealed himself to Jeanne |
|
There was no chance to fire without hitting him |
|
Yes sir he answered with cheerful alacrity |
|
And the big Persian knew of his existence before he did of hers |
|
Such men believe when they come together |
|
The wolf dog thrust his gaunt muzzle toward him |
|
We must achieve our own salvation |
|
The hyena proceeded to dine |
|
It was impossible to hoist sail and claw off that shore |
|
You live on an income which your father earned |
|
In spite of their absurdity the words affected Philip curiously |
|
The boy threw back his head with pride |
|
After all the picture was only a resemblance |
|
His voice was passionately rebellious |
|
Your father's fifth command he nodded |
|
I made no more overtures |
|
We are cooking on the coal stove and on the oil burners |
|
A strange fire burned in his eyes when Thorpe turned |
|
Philip snatched at the letter which Gregson held out to him |
|
Since then some mysterious force has been fighting us at every step |
|
Any average young fellow can teach himself in a week |
|
Take away their foreman and they wouldn't be worth their grub |
|
You can take a vacation on pay |
|
White Leghorns said Missus Mortimer |
|
Out of his eighteen hundred he laid aside sixteen hundred each year |
|
Also at regular intervals he would mutter |
|
He had worshiped her as Dante might have worshiped Beatrice |
|
It was the same way with our revolvers and rifles |
|
It is also an insidious deceitful sun |
|
Besides that noise makes me deaf |
|
The very idea of it was preposterous |
|
I have seen myself that one man contemplated by Pascal's philosophic eye |
|
Yes and no sir was the slow reply |
|
But we were without this momentum |
|
One great drawback to farming in California is our long dry summer |
|
He obeyed the pressure of her hand |
|
I'm sure going along with you all Elijah |
|
A dead man is of no use on a plantation |
|
Anything unusual or abnormal was sufficient to send a fellow to Molokai |
|
But all my dreams violated this law |
|
He leapt again and the club caught him once more |
|
Daylight found himself charmed and made curious by the little man |
|
There weren't any missions and he was the man to know |
|
What if she didn't come to the rock |
|
If I ever needed a fighter in my life I need one now |
|
The sharp voice of Wolf Larsen aroused me |
|
I have to be careful of them as they tear very easily |
|
A half a case of tobacco was worth three pounds |
|
They ate dinner at the fifth and rested for two hours |
|
Sometime about it seemed to fascinate him to challenge his presence |
|
He thought he saw a shudder pass through the Factor's shoulders |
|
They are greatly delighted with anything that is bright or giveth a sound |
|
We threaten to be of the one mind before the voyage is completed |
|
It was not Red Eye's way to forego revenge so easily |
|
Gregson had seated himself under the lamp and was sharpening a pencil |
|
Three weeks passed and in that time Thorpe left camp three times |
|
Now have you got anything to say against me Mister Philip |
|
But he reconciled himself to it by an act of faith |
|
Also she has forbidden them smoking their pipes in the after room |
|
What the flaming |
|
They will search for us between their camp and Churchill |
|
He had comparatively no advantages at first |
|
The fourth and fifth days passed without any developments |
|
They are not regular oyster pirates Nicholas continued |
|
Keep an eye on him |
|
Oolong Atoll was one hundred and forty miles in circumference |
|
Pebbles and dirt flew along with hair and fur |
|
You read the quotations in today's paper |
|
Tomorrow or next day it might be gone |
|
Oppressive as the heat had been it was now even more oppressive |
|
Once the jews harp began emitting its barbaric rhythms Michael was helpless |
|
I have been robbed sir I amended |
|
He lifted his eyes and a strange cry burst from his lips |
|
I I beg pardon he drawled |
|
Joan cried with shining eyes |
|
Whoever lived on the ranch did that |
|
They are coming ashore whoever they are |
|
He knew what taboos he was violating |
|
He was a merry monarch especially so for an Asiatic |
|
Mercedes screamed cried laughed and manifested the chaotic abandonment of hysteria |
|
I just do appreciate it without being able to express my feelings |
|
Darkness hid him from Jeanne |
|
Hardly were our plans made public before we were met by powerful opposition |
|
He went down in midstream searching the shadows of both shores |
|
|
