Here is a wrath and speed unknown to the quadrupeds of this present Long Street.

It was so slippery and the wind so tugged and pulled to throw me off, that although I endangered my dignity, I played the quadruped on the narrower parts.

It had never heard of those celebrities, and had only been introduced to a cow as a graminivorous, ruminating quadruped with several stomachs.

He seemed to want but his just stature to have rent the offending quadruped in shivers.

So Private W., tired of his foot-soldiering, got a quadruped under him, and felt like a cavalier again.

However, as I neared the outskirts of Nieppe, and saw the flood of interlacing traffic, I decided to leave well aloneto tie this quadruped of mine up at some outlying hostelry and walk the short remaining distance into the town where the cashier had his office.

I fancy some jilted, jaundiced descendant of the sea-rovers, retiring to his castle, and endeavoring, by mating some ugly bloodhound with a wild wolf, to produce a quadruped as fierce and cowardly and treacherous as man or woman may be.

Birds exceed quadrupeds in the quantity of their respiration, for they have not only a double circulation, and an aerial respiration, but they respire also through other cavities beside the lungs, the air penetrating through the whole body, and bathing the branches of the aorta, or great artery of the body, as well as those of the pulmonary artery.
