"But now I will speak no more, and you must speak no more, for you will only increase your agitation. Rest, and another time you can ask what you please." Edith turned away and walked to one of the windows, where she looked out pensively upon the sea. From this time Beatrice began to recover rapidly.

Paklin pulled himself up. "Why, of course... do have some more tea." But Mashurina fixed her dark eyes upon him and said pensively: "You don't happen to have any letter of Nejdanov s... or his photograph?" "I have a photograph and quite a good one too. I believe it's in the table drawer. I'll get it in a minute."

Her eyes suddenly blazed up, vividly and gaily. "There's a devil dwells in me!" "It's all very well for you," pensively and with weariness pronounced Jennie.

Now pausing to read an inscription, and now to pluck a wild violet, she slowly wandered towards that part of the yard where Woodburn, still screened from her view by a clump of intervening evergreens, was pensively reclining against a tomb stone in the vicinity of his mother's grave.

"One could not amass wealth," he said pensively, and his words are of grievous generality for the literary tribe, "but one could acquire ease and comfort, if only these sums were not spread over so many years, did not vanish away as they were gathered in, and had not all been scattered and spent by the time that years had multiplied, wants, grown more numerous, eyes grown dim, and mind become blunted and worn."

First of all, all our four horses fall lame on the road.

The girl watched pensively the lights upon the hills lose their steadiness, as the scow drew farther away from them, until with a final twinkle they disappeared into the darkness behind. The churning of the tug's propeller dinned continually in Flea's ears; but was not loud enough to make inaudible the sound of a footstep. Lon came to the top of the stairs; but did not speak.

"It is well," said Louis. "I will answer for Tristan. Have this fellow sent to me here." With another reverence Olivier left the king and ascended the steps into the palace. The king sniffed pensively at the rose which Katherine had given to him.

"They were, God help me, only calves!" answered the Kammerjunker; "they wished to play, and only ran because you ran!" "It was a foolish joke of mine!" said Sophie, and seized Eva's hand. "I am very unhappy about it!" "O no!" said Eva, and smiled so pensively, yet happily. "To-morrow I shall be quite well again!" Her eye seemed to seek some one. Otto understood the glance.

Another girl, pretty and well-dressed, in the glove-making line, as I guess from the family she is with, all of whom, from paterfamilias to baby, are begloved in a manner entirely irrespective of expense, is kneeling pensively on the stern-benches of the upper deck, paying out the line with confidence in herself, but evidently hoping for masculine assistance in the process of hauling it in.
