leafage

Nightingales trilled near by and the fresh leafage rustled, moved by a passing breeze.

But he waited inside his screen of leafage, his eyes fixed on the screen on the opposite side.

Giuseppe's dark face between flashing earrings, a twisted rag of red and yellow silk round his throat, turned from the reaching yearning monkey to the pink and white biscuits spiked on the bronzed leafage. And upon them all fell the serious and workmanlike sun of an English summer forenoon.

The rotten bark gave way under his feet, and with a despairing yelp he pitched down the rounded crescent, smashed through the leafage and stalks of a small bush, and in the heart of the bush, on the ground, fetched up in the midst of seven ptarmigan chicks.

Nothing lies between them but the torrent, roaring over its waterfalls between two lofty walls of granite that rise above it, their sides covered with the leafage of tall beeches and dark fir trees to the height of a hundred feet.

One the blue background of the high coast they seem to float on silvery patches of calm water, arid and gray, or dark green and rounded like clumps of evergreen bushes, with the larger ones, a mile or two long, showing the outlines of ridges, ribs of gray rock under the dark mantle of matted leafage. Un- known to trade, to travel, almost to geography, the manner of life they harbor is an unsolved secret.

One's delight in an elderberry bush overhanging the confused leafage of a hedgerow bank, as a more gladdening sight than the finest cistus or fuchsia spreading itself on the softest undulating turf, is an entirely unjustifiable preference to a nursery-gardener, or to any of those regulated minds who are free from the weakness of any attachment that does not rest on a demonstrable superiority of qualities.

They had top rails that were finger-carved or had carved crests decorated with fruit or flower motifs with leafage.

How will the exposed side endure open day, it had been devised to purl in streams, murmur to a lover, hold converse with stags, how will it endure burnt by the silhouettes of caustic cloud, will it be shuttered, harden where the membrane should divest itself of amplifier hum, buzz of electric labour, whooshing poplars, sough of reeds uprooted with a scrabbled scream,--a tricky God repurposing those reeds to mouthpieces in ligatures, leafage once cover for its pipes in hush matutinal, pulses violently like a speaker cabinet.

The PokAaAaAeA@mon can also alter the trajectories of the feather blades bending them. It has a special move called Leafage actually involves striking the opponent using leaves.

The bodice, cross-laced from neck to waist with pink ribbons and green to match, concealed her breast like leafage embowering a bud; and the full white sleeves of her shirt, bloused at the wrist and laced up with a ribbon, shone bright upon her shoulders like the tensed wings of a butterfly about to rise in the air.
