  1 I   |                in Sicily were having a great feast to celebrate the anniversary
  2 I   | Anise-sprinkled loaves alternated with great cheeses heavier than discuses,
  3 I   |              were unfriendly to him, a great sigh escaped from his breast;
  4 I   |                of their crowd, and the great town sleeping beneath them
  5 I   |           pedestals, each supporting a great glass ball, and these hollow
  6 I   |              spangles glided past, and great fish with gems about their
  7 I   |               ships, they rolled their great drunken eyes around to devour
  8 I   |             dragon-croups were round a great fire, standing erect on
  9 I   |             into the households of the great in order to pave the way
 10 I   |                 Matho advanced dealing great blows with his head. When
 11 I   |             Spendius understood that a great disquiet possessed him,
 12 II  |            Then the Barbarians heard a great shout. They thought that
 13 II  |               a temple. They laughed a great deal at the idea of this,
 14 II  |             feet and calls me Lord and~Great King.”~They shouted, they

 16 II  |              tombs. The Libyans struck great blows upon the doors to
 17 II  |                the darts of the aloes; great mosquitoes buzzed in their
 18 II  |                hands, and darted their great black eyes upon the army
 19 II  |           other men! Have you seen her great eyes beneath her great eyebrows,
 20 II  |             her great eyes beneath her great eyebrows, like suns beneath
 21 II  |        followed by camels sounding the great bells that hung at their
 22 II  |         abundance of his garments, his great necklace of blue stones,
 23 II  |            nation. Night had fallen, a great tumult was spreading throughout
 24 II  |          spices, and it is a matter of great difficulty to procure silphium
 25 II  |              the soldiers remembered a great shout; Spendius, who was
 26 II  |               as his malady gave him a great appetite, there were also
 27 II  |              bags to stone Hanno. With great difficulty he was able to
 28 III |                the temples beamed like great diamonds here and there.
 29 III |              beneath the catacombs the great salt lagoon shimmered like
 30 III |               tunic. Silver bodkins of great length formed a sun behind
 31 III |                and the rustling of the great trees on the summit of the
 32 III |            ground; then these became a great curtain of dust extending
 33 IV  |            driven back with arrows, so great was the terror.~In the morning
 34 IV  |               rose here and there like great reefs, or extended in enormous

 38 IV  |          manufactured at Carthage; the Great Council voted sums of money
 39 IV  |              the soldiers and from the Great Council swore renewed friendship
 40 IV  |               robes to receive it.~The Great Council would perhaps have
 41 IV  |               Autaritus brandished his great sword; Spendius whispered
 42 IV  |                engagements made by the Great Council. Gisco spread out
 43 IV  |             without speaking, with his great yellow eyes, and his long
 44 IV  |             The slightest sound made a great echo.~Spendius and Matho
 45 IV  |         cisterns.~Then, advancing with great precautions, they felt along
 46 IV  |                 and they fell into the great centre-basins. They had
 47 V   |             discovered a breach in the great wall and passed through.~
 48 V   |          itself all the more, like the great lotus-plants blooming upon

 50 V   |               of the wood. On both the great sides of the apartment there
 51 V   |                 and the shadow, like a great curtain, revealed only a
 52 V   |             not speak. The lamp caused great luminous moires to flicker
 53 V   |               are hastening hither!”~A great tumult came upwards shaking
 54 V   |                hands.~He ran up to the great gate, which was closed.
 55 V   |                was outside he took the great zaimph from his neck, and
 56 VI  |            Matho had been greeted with great shouting when he had come
 57 VI  |                 Below in the plain the great crowd stirred tumultuously.

 59 VI  |               they were vanquished the Great Council crucified them.~

 67 VI  |                were beginning again. A great tumult was going on around
 68 VI  |             they turned back;—and with great blows of ivory and trampling
 69 VI  |             three bodies streamed with great bubbles like three fountains,
 70 VI  |                fourteen members of the Great Council, three hundred of
 71 VII |            arms visible; two pearls of great length hung from his ears,
 72 VII |           mounted higher still, to the great pure sky; he shouted an
 73 VII |             the temple of Khamon. This great expanse of water was as
 74 VII |                long steps leading to a great altar, the corners of which
 75 VII |             much as him there would be great joy in Carthage now! How
 76 VII |               The sole traitor was the Great Council, for as the enlistment
 77 VII |             behind the other halls the great pink sky which seemed to

 79 VII |           Sphinx’s, and furnished with great sticks, dashed into the
 80 VII |             that it seemed to make the great ebony staircase, with its
 81 VII |           feathers, the latter tied in great bunches at the very top
 82 VII |       Atarantes and the country of the great apes, he had seen immense

 95 VIII|               thick, and the tumult so great that it was impossible to

 99 IX  |             fresh meat was a source of great sadness to them in the days
100 IX  |              while neither people, nor Great Council, nor any one sent

133 XII |                begged Matho to light a great fire of straw in the middle
134 XII |            lower end of it against the great toe of his left foot; he
135 XII |          danced in delirium around the great waterfall, and came up and
136 XIII|             next divided the army into great semicircles so as to encompass
137 XIII|              cables, which held back a great beam bearing a spoon for

141 XIII|               bent over a capstan; the great beam rose, became horizontal,
