Beneath him lay a narrow valley , open and grassy , from which rose a faint murmur murmur of running run water .

And the rumour rumour of this new presence presence having spread itself whisperingly around , there arose at length from the whole company a buzz buzz , or murmur murmur , expressive of disapprobation disapprobation and surprise surprise -- then , finally , of terror terror , of horror horror , and of disgust disgust .

A murmur murmur of wrath and contempt went round the group of ill-clad wretches , who crowded crowd round Citoyen Bibot .

The sullen murmur murmur of the bees shouldering shoulder their way through the long unmown grass , or circling circle with monotonous insistence insistence round the dusty gilt horns of the straggling woodbine , seemed to make the stillness more oppressive .
