"Ay, let them come let them come while I hold you!" While Hetty lay, neither winking nor moving, the big drops overbrimmed at the corners of each eye and trickled on the pillow. As one fell, another gathered. Silent, unchecked, they flowed, and Molly bent and watched them flowing. "A little while a little while!" moaned Hetty. "I will hold you so for ever."
But at last the wonder of those eyes came nearer nearer! She felt the dear pressure of the familiar lips upon her own. A fragrance enveloped her, an exquisite joy overbrimmed her, as a voice the beloved, unforgotten voice of matchless music spoke. It said: "Love your husband as I loved Richard! Be to a child of his what I have been to you!"
Besides, originating nothing, we leave no fashions for another age to copy, when we ourselves shall have grown antique. Old as it looks, all this portion of Warwick has overbrimmed, as it were, from the original settlement, being outside of the ancient wall.
"Sheriff, I'll give him a squarer deal than you think." Kern nodded. "More coffee, Li!" he called. Li obeyed with such haste that he overbrimmed the cup, and some of the liquid washed out of the saucer onto the floor.

The mother was still silent, but Wogan could see that the tears overbrimmed her eyes and rolled down her cheeks.
Here was the Countess Foedora, rich and loveless, proof against the temptations of Paris; was not this woman the very incarnation of my hopes and visions? I fashioned her for myself, drew her in fancy, and dreamed of her. I could not sleep that night; I became her lover; I overbrimmed a few hours with a whole lifetime a lover's lifetime; the experience of its prolific delights burned me.
Mine eyes cannot look on this battle and treaty: thou, if thou darest aught of more present help for the brother of thy blood, go on; it befits thee. Haply relief shall follow misery. Scarcely thus: when Juturna's eyes overbrimmed with tears, and thrice and again she smote her hand on her gracious breast.
"If your Reverence wouldn' mind steppin' down to the creek with me?" he suggested respectfully.

At the foot of it they came to a creek, which the tide at this hour had flooded and almost overbrimmed.
