Once more he begged; but as Ruth only repeated her sharp command,
he spun about and raced toward the jungle. She was good to me for the
two years I stayed with her, she had a nice apartment in
Galveston. She twisted her fingers tightly. We
made sure it was just like Gwen. Ramage. Enfeebled by his wound, Wild
had lost much of his strength, though nothing of his ferocity and energy,—and

cold, empty, comfortless. He delayed the blow till the
fortunate conjuncture was past. Finally she fell into reflection. “Monsieur would dine! It was very good! And Madame, of course?” with a low

faultless symmetry of her figure, than for her wonderful strength and agility,
conducted herself in the present encounter; with what dexterity she parried every
blow aimed against her by her adversary, whose head and face, already marked
by various ruddy streams, showed how successfully her own hits had been made;
—how she drew him hither and thither, now leading him on, now driving him
suddenly back; harassing and exhausting him in every possible way, and making
it apparent that she could at any moment put an end to the fight, and only
delayed the finishing stroke to make his punishment the more severe.
