When her head rose again, the mask was back in place.

Now he returned, and his head rose through the hole in the floor.

Her head rose well over a meter above the floor.

Her head rose at last, and she came out into the aisle again.

He pushed hard, and his head rose above the surface.

Only our heads rose above the surface and we were warm.

But when the head didn't rise in my sight I realized he'd been standing all along.

Then a large head rose from the mud, coming up until it was even with the front of the ship.
