The tall figure, straight as a dart; the frank handsome face which M. Lenoble saw in the glass when he made his toilet, were not calculated to dishearten a hopeful lover; and Gustave, by nature sanguine, enjoyed his dream of happiness, untroubled by one morbid apprehension. He loved her, and he would ask her for his wife.
"Never mind about all that," he said; "let's get back and see if you are right, and that it is not a solitary chest which the Frenchmen have left us." "No fear of that, sir," cried Bigley. "I was down long enough to see that there was quite a lot of them." "Or of pieces of rock," said my father smiling. "I'm older than you are, my lad, and not so sanguine."
It is said that these were originally built by an enterprising squatter, who for some unaccountable reason abandoned them shortly after. The "Jumper" who succeeded him disappeared one day, quite as mysteriously.

"B-r-r!" shivered Washington, at this statement.

There was much opposition to them, as many magistrates and other influential personages entertained sanguine expectations from the English negotiation, and were beginning to rely with confidence upon the promises of Queen Elizabeth.

San Francisco, which had suspected Ruef and his Supervisors with the easy tolerance of a people calloused to betrayal, was aroused by the insolent audacity of these transactions. It demanded blood. And Heney was prepared to furnish sanguine vengeance. He was after the "higher-ups," he stated.
The Cardinal's thin face assumed a strange look of determination, and his delicate fingers grasped Giovanni's arm with a force that startled him. "You speak bravely," answered the young man.

Cardinal Antonelli turned his gleaming black eyes full on his companion.
