But your piano needs tuning.” “Symbolic, symbolic, my dear friend,” cried Herr Carovius, and puffed out his cheeks. “But you come back another time, and you will find it in the pink of condition. Come frequently, please. You will reap the reward of Heaven if you do.”
"She has been endowed with quite remarkable small hands," said he; "you wouldn't believe it without seeing.

He took out the ring from its bed of pink cotton wool, and offered it to Miss Parkinson.
Resolutely, and taking a quick advantage of his opportunity, he followed her into the dining-room. "I see that dog has turned up," he announced with brisk cheerfulness. "That Irish setter I was asking about." Hilma, a swift, pink flush deepening the delicate rose of her cheeks, did not reply, except by nodding her head.
