She dreamed of splendid parlors furnished in rare old silks, of carved cabinets loaded with priceless bric-a-brac, and of entrancing little boudoirs just right for afternoon chats with bosom friends men famous and sought after, the envy and the desire of all the other women.
The quarrelling of the great gulls had evidently awakened her, for her eyes were open, and as his figure cut the light at the cave entrance her head moved. He ran back for the precious tin and, carrying it carefully, and half carried away by the entrancing smell of it, knelt down beside her, then picking up the spoon began to feed her before feeding himself.
So they suppressed the real ending, which is now the brilliant entrancing end of the overture. This finale is extant in the library at the Opéra. It would be an interesting experiment to restore it and give this beautiful act its natural conclusion. Massenet has been praised indiscriminately sometimes for his numerous and brilliant powers and sometimes for merits he did not have at all.
Without grafting any libretto on it, this Mazurka is a beautiful tone-piece in itself. Its theme is delicately mournful and the subject, in B major, simply entrancing in its broad, flowing melody. In C sharp minor, op. 41, is a Mazurka that is beloved of me. Its scale is exotic, its rhythm convincing, its tune a little saddened by life, but courage never fails.
How bald it is I keenly feel, and it would afford me more pleasure than I can tell to give some account of our wonderful experiences of the delight of sailing in southern seas; of the vast regions of the mainland of Australia; of the marvels of its tropical parts; of the entrancing beauty of New Zealand and Tasmania; of the wonders of Canada, the variety of its natural productions, its magnificent wheat-growing areas; of the charm of South Africa with its glorious climate and its beautiful rolling veldt.
It was our first night out in the open in Labrador, and all was new and entrancing; and as slumber gradually enwrapped us, it seemed to us that we had fallen upon pleasant times.

Osborn fell into a dream from which he was only fully roused by finding himself paraded side by side at the chancel steps with a dazzling apparition, robed in white clouds, veiled and wreathed. She carried a great bouquet. He stole a look at her entrancing profile and thought that never had she looked so lovely.
Then, slightly ashamed of his outburst, Tom practised a delightful smile, at once sentimental and flirtatious. "No, on second thoughts, my dear princess, I keep my commiseration for my wretched self every crumb of it. For I am the lonely exile that is, I am just about to be not you. Be advised, don't quarrel with the good gifts of the gods. Deadham Hard is frankly entrancing.
"It would not be proper in me to say that I could bless you for what you have done," she said, so naïvely that he lifted his eyes to hers and let his heart escape heavenward. "The whole world will call me a bungling, stupid ass for not knowing who he was," said Chase, with a wretched smile. Her face brightened after a moment, and an entrancing smile broke around her lips.
They rode part of the way in a farm waggon, and were all in the best of spirits, for it was haymaking time, a time of entrancing joy to all children, and to the little Stuarts a new and delightful experience.
