All the heads turned towards her as if pulled by strings.

The body suddenly stood upright, as if pulled by strings.

He reached inside and brought out two things which hung by a string around his neck.

Sometimes we would rise together, as if pulled up by invisible strings.

As if drawn up by a string he stepped out into the cool night.

Eventually, his head was found suspended by strings through each ear.

Presently, she returned to her chair, moving as though pulled by strings.

He felt himself stand as if yanked by invisible strings.

Slowly the arm rises as if pulled by a string, until it is held out straight.

She stared at me, a hand lifting to her mouth as though pulled by strings.
