For ten nights now, the smoke had not ascended, but filled the lodge and drove them out.

Behind him black smoke ascended in a thick, dark column to be scattered by the wind blowing in from the sea.

The fire crackled, and the smoke ascended like the dull vapor from a volcano; but still no prisoner fell down, as they expected.

As the smoke ascended, the chanting died away and the ancient crone closed her single eye, the better to peer into the future.

A thin blue smoke ascended from the cabin chimney, there was a smell of cooking.

He stumbled down through the powdery ash to the hollow from which the smoke still ascended.

High flamed the pile, and smoke ascended black as a storm-cloud, blowing in windy volumes.

And the smoke of the incense, with the prayers of the saints, ascended before God from the angel's hand.

He knew the smoke would ascend through the furnace ducts and pour out of the hot-air registers in the floors above.

Greasy black smoke ascended above the flare of the flames.
