"Ah! my friend," said he with a weary air whilst his dreamy eyes faded to mauve, "you have no idea how delightful and perturbing her awakening was this morning how languorously she opened her eyes, like a pure, candid virgin, emerging from the embrace of the Divinity. One could die of rapture at the sight!"

This he so tenderly caressed with his that the girl's body seemed all at once to melt, and she said languorously: "This is no longer a game. We are truly husband and wife!" The false bride, seeing that he had fully awakened the passion of his dupe, made answer: "Not yet. We must take off our under garments." "But I am afraid lest people should talk. It is not good to take them off."
The stars still glittered down into the parade; the moon cast a gentle shadow along the palisades; the sentries in the block-house towers, the gunners lying flat beneath their great cannon, feeling the dew on their faces, looking toward the moon, the guard ready to turn out at the word, all listened languorously, and drank in the sweets of the summer night with the music.
Toying with the tip of the branch, which I was gripping for dear life, she looked languorously through the foliage towards the river. At first I thought myself the victim of another hallucination, but would not stir lest the vision should vanish. She sighed audibly, and I knew this was no spectre. Then I trembled all the more, for my sudden appearance might alarm her.
She picked up a buffer from the litter of ivory and silver on the dresser and began to polish her already glittering nails, turning her head this way and that, preening her neck, biting her scarlet lips to deepen their crimson, opening her eyes wide and half closing them languorously. Julia, down on her knees in combat with the trickiest of the hooks, glanced up and saw.
In the historical nights of which Perrault told, the princess had but a gesture to make, the offender sank dead. At once a bier was produced, the corpse was hurried away, and the veils of charm restored fell languorously. Yet, in that historical epoch, there subsisted perhaps as a reminder of the vanities even of fairyland the rose-leaf suggestively crumpled.
The scarlet sun in magnified splendor was ablaze low down in the saffron west. The world seemed languorously afloat in the deep, serene flood of light. Shadows were lengthening slowly. The clangor of a cow-bell vibrated in the distance. The drone of Andy Byers's voice overbore it as he recommenced.
The idol stirred into life, the music of the orchestra died away. Then a tom-tom began to beat its nervous pulse-stirring throb, the strident notes of a reed-pipe joined in and the dancer, raised on her toes on the dais, began to sway languorously to and fro.
All her attractive Western breeziness was gone. One felt the tragedy of it only too keenly. "I have asked Professor Kennedy, a specialist, to call, my dear," said Atherton gently, without mentioning what the specialty was. "Another one?" she queried languorously. There was a colorless indifference in the tone which was almost tragic.
