gadfly

His efforts can only be compared with those of a gadfly or a mosquito.

The gadfly uses a like forethought in selecting a place for her eggs.

Some gadfly stings him: he seizes his tomahawk and is off on the trail.

"So it's the Gadfly," thought Gemma, looking at him with some curiosity.

Presently he heard the Gadfly move restlessly two or three times.

The Gadfly was too much exhausted to wake easily when once asleep.

She understood that he had invented a pretext in order to leave her alone with the Gadfly.

Riccardo rose to fetch a chair from the next room, but the Gadfly stopped him.

The Gadfly, still carrying his bundle, shuffled towards the horseman.

Montanelli only moved a step nearer, and faced the Gadfly's pistol.
