| As far as I was concerned, there was nothing but the spirt of dust from the side of a long-suffering island. |
| The spirt of flame then fell back and spread slowly until it formed a spire as large as a pine-cone. |
| His great exertions caused the blood to spirt from his nostrils and smear the front of his body. |
| In place of it comes a spirt of steam from the railway viaduct, and the whistle of an engine. |
| First touch of the lancet, and first spirt of blood, and what do you think? |
| I was silent for a while, listening to the clip-clop of our horses' hooves, wishing for a rest of both body and spirt. |
