His hand came away wet.

Little waves came in with it.

They all came just like that.

That’s why I came over tonight.

Why they came East I don’t know.

Jim Gilmore came to Hortons Bay from Canada.

Then three more came over further down the wall.

The two men smiled when Jim came in with the jug.

They came around a bend and a dog came out barking.

She was thinking about him hard and then Jim came out.

After a while it got dark and the searchlights came out.

Young Buckley came in with his patrol from across the river.

He went inside when he saw me and came downstairs disgusted.

They rushed it, and officers came out alone and worked on it.

She came in with the boat and ran the second line out the same way.

I enjoyed the counter-raid so thoroughly that I came back restless.

As the trout’s back came up out of the water the minnows jumped wildly.

The men came in to supper feeling hilarious but acting very respectable.

Dick Boulton came from the Indian camp to cut up logs for Nick’s father.

He came over and sat down beside her on the blanket.

If no one came for them they would be left to waterlog and rot on the beach.

Then Mrs. Smith went upstairs and pretty soon Smith came out and went upstairs too.

They came in through the back gate out of the woods, Eddy carrying the long crosscut saw.

She couldn’t wait till she saw Jim and it seemed as though everything would be all right when he came.

Fifteen came in a bunch to the front and he sorted them by the dates and read them all straight through.

The lumber schooners came into the bay and were loaded with the cut of the mill that stood stacked in the yard.

Jim came over back of her chair and stood there and she could feel him breathing and then he put his arms around her.

We went to work on the trench and in the morning the sun came up and the day was hot and muggy and cheerful and quiet.

I heard the drums coming down the street and then the fifes and the pipes and then they came around the corner, all dancing.

Father agreed to finance me for a year, and after various delays I came East, permanently, I thought, in the spring of twenty-two.

At this point Miss Baker said: “Absolutely!” with such suddenness that I started⁠—it was the first word she had uttered since I came into the room.

The kid came out and had to kill five bulls because you can’t have more than three matadors, and the last bull he was so tired he couldn’t hardly get the sword in.

When she looked at them they didn’t seem to be moving at all but if she went in and dried some more dishes and then came out again they would be out of sight beyond the point.

The crowd came over the barrera and around the torero and two men grabbed him and held him and someone cut off his pigtail and was waving it and a kid grabbed it and ran away with it.

The other girl, Daisy, made an attempt to rise⁠—she leaned slightly forward with a conscientious expression⁠—then she laughed, an absurd, charming little laugh, and I laughed too and came forward into the room.

When I came back from the East last autumn I felt that I wanted the world to be in uniform and at a sort of moral attention forever; I wanted no more riotous excursions with privileged glimpses into the human heart.

The abnormal mind is quick to detect and attach itself to this quality when it appears in a normal person, and so it came about that in college I was unjustly accused of being a politician, because I was privy to the secret griefs of wild, unknown men.

The Carraways are something of a clan, and we have a tradition that we’re descended from the Dukes of Buccleuch, but the actual founder of my line was my grandfather’s brother, who came here in fifty-one, sent a substitute to the Civil War, and started the wholesale hardware business that my father carries on today.

The second matador slipped, and the bull caught him through the belly and he hung onto the horn with one hand and held the other tight against the place, and the bull rammed him wham against the barrier and the horn came out, and he lay in the sand, and then got up like crazy drunk and tried to slug the men carrying him away and yelled for his sword, but he fainted.
