| Brave the fox- terriers were, despite the hysterical rage they were in, and they were upon him as he got his legs under him. So he would carry on, becoming half hysterical himself, which was an unbearable thing to see in a big man; Ona would pull herself together and fling herself into his arms, begging him to stop, to be still, that she would be better, it would be all right.
