But I found nothing but calcareous marl, or basaltic chippings and crumblings, some of cream colour, some lavender, some purple, some red-brown, some nearly black. This done, as connoisseur of geology, I stood stock still and gaped open-mouthed like an idiot, at the huge pyramidal ribs of The Rock.
The moment the red-brown eyes fell upon Professor Young, the pale face of the girl lit with a radiant smile. "Oh, ye've come!... God sent ye, didn't He?" At the sight of the tall, commanding lawyer, the officer and his powerful principal stepped each to one side of the path in front of the house and left Tess standing in the doorway, with trembling arms outstretched to her approaching friend.
McQuade's letters had their existence in revenge. Patty had wronged no one; McQuade had. "Well, Jove, old man, you and I may have to pack up on the morrow. If we are licked, you and I'll go to Japan. That's a country we've always been wanting to see." Jove lifted his head, somewhat scarred, and gazed up at his master with steadfast love in his red-brown eyes.
If seeing is believing then you shall believe that even Charles Burchester can protect a girl at a pinch from the snares of the virtuous!"

Jake's eyes, red-brown and steady, marked the action and contemplated him thereafter for several silent seconds. Then, at length, very slowly.
Bet, will you wed me if I can manage it afore I sail in the 'Good Queen Anne'?" Bet looked up with an angry flash in her red-brown eyes. "Are you mad, Will Scarlet?" she said, "My mother's lying dead, and your ship sails to-morrow night." "No matter that.

"Doubtless. But you must state it in terms of the problem." "In terms of the problem," murmured Fifi, her red-brown head bowed over the bewildering book "in terms of the problem." "Of course," said her teacher, "there is but one thing which longer can mean; that is longer than the original rate of progress. Yet you add the six to the time required under the new rate of progress."
The terrifying shadow resolved itself into the great red-brown sail of a passing barge. I was lying close beside the tow-path of a canal.

There are also the deep yellow Io, pale blue-green Luna, and Polyphemus, brown with pink bands of the Saturniidae; and light yellow, red-brown and grey Regalis, and lavender and yellow Imperialis of the Ceratocampidae, and their relatives.
