aggressively into the frosty air.

C. He held on through the level stretch of woods for several miles, crossed a wide flat, and dropped down a bank to the frozen bed of a small
stream.

D. The bulge of the earth Intervened between it and Henderson Creek, where the man walked under a clear sky at noon and cast no shadow.

E. The man's red beard and mustache were likewise frosted, but more solidly, the deposit taking the form of Ice and increasing with every
warm, moist breath he exhaled.​
