| Current Search - air in Lord of the Flies |
1 A little air was moving over the mountain.
2 Then Piggy, too, raised his hand grudgingly into the air.
3 The air was thick with butterflies, lifting, fluttering, settling.
4 Ralph grasped the idea and hit the shell with air from his diaphragm.
5 He started up, then changed his mind and sat down again while the air rang.
6 Ralph pursed his lips and squirted air into the shell, which emitted a low, farting noise.
7 Ralph's breath failed; the note dropped the octave, became a low wubber, was a rush of air.
8 Ralph paddled backwards down the slope, immersed his mouth and blew a jet of water into the air.
9 These stood or leaned or reclined against the light and their green feathers were a hundred feet up in the air.
10 The air moved a little faster and became a light wind, so that leeward and windward side were clearly differentiated.
11 On one side the air was cool, but on the other the fire thrust out a savage arm of heat that crinkled hair on the instant.
12 He closed his eyes, raised his head and breathed in gently with flared nostrils, assessing the current of warm air for information.
13 Ralph danced out into the hot air of the beach and then returned as a fighter-plane, with wings swept back, and machine-gunned Piggy.
14 The conch was silent, a gleaming tusk; Ralph's face was dark with breathlessness and the air over the island was full of bird-clamor and echoes ringing.
15 The pile was so rotten, and now so tinder-dry, that whole limbs yielded passionately to the yellow flames that poured upwards and shook a great beard of flame twenty feet in the air.
16 The great rock loitered, poised on one toe, decided not to return, moved through the air, fell, struck, turned over, leapt droning through the air and smashed a deep hole in the canopy of the forest.
17 They had guessed before that this was an island: clambering among the pink rocks, with the sea on either side, and the crystal heights of air, they had known by some instinct that the sea lay on every side.
