The crowd far away on the left, towards Woking, seemed to grow, and I heard now a faint murmur from it.
This smoke (or flame, perhaps, would be the better word for it) was so bright that the deep blue sky overhead and the hazy stretches of brown common towards Chertsey, set with black pine trees, seemed to darken abruptly as these puffs arose, and to remain the darker after their dispersal.
War Of The Worlds
So surprised and horrified was Solan that he forgot to finish his thrust; instead, he wheeled
toward the switch with a loud shriek--a shriek which was his last, for before his hand could touch the lever it sought, my sword's point had passed through his heart.
Warlord of Mars
It was such a pack of scoundrels that Bududreen led
toward the north campong to bear away the treasure.
The Monster Men
Toward the southeast of Gathol was such a country, and as Gahan surmised the direction and the velocity of the storm to have carried him somewhere in the vicinity of the country he thought he recognized, he assumed that Gathol lay behind the hills he now saw, whereas, in reality, it lay far to the northeast.
The Chessmen of Mars
In his insistent crawling
toward the light, he discovered in her a nose that with a sharp nudge administered rebuke, and later, a paw, that crushed him down and rolled him over and over with swift, calculating stroke.
White Fang
Then he turned and retraced his steps
toward the palace, leaving her alone in the midst of the unseen terrors of the haunted city, for in truth these places are haunted in the belief of many Martians who still cling to an ancient superstition which teaches that the spirits of Holy Therns who die before their allotted one thousand years, pass, on occasions, into the bodies of the great white apes.
Thuvia Maid of Mars
They saw a giant white man leap from the branches of a tree to the turf and race rapidly
toward the plane.
Tarzan the Untamed
It is enough that within another minute or two, Tars Tarkas, wearing the metal of a Warhoon chief, was hurrying down the corridor
toward the spiral runway, bearing the Warhoon's torch to light his way.
The Gods of Mars
What he was most interested in knowing was that he was upon the right trail, and that it led
toward the interior.
The Beasts of Tarzan
The lidi, with the hounds running close on either side, had almost disappeared in the darkness that en-veloped the surrounding landscape, when I noted that it was bearing
toward the right.
Pellucidar
Our bow was pointed straight
toward the U-boat now as I heard word passed to the engine for full speed ahead.
The Land That Time Forgot
For a time no one turned back
toward the thing that had frightened them, but Tarzan knew that they would in a moment, and when they discovered that it was but the dead body of their sentry, while they would doubtless be still further terrified, he had a rather definite idea as to what they would do, and so he faded silently away
toward the south, taking the moonlit upper terrace back
toward the camp of the Waziri.
The Return of Tarzan
La raised her slender arm and pointed
toward the sun.
Tarzan and the Jewels of Opar
When we came down to drink I knew that no danger lurked near upon this side of the water hole, for else the zebras would have discovered it and fled before we came; but upon the other side

Son Of Tarzan
