A smile that made you forget anything but that he was your friend; a square jaw, squinting eyes " "Was his face very thin, almost haggard, with hollows under the eyes, and one shoulder lower than the other?" Mahon smiled at her excitement. "No, his face lurked a little heavily, waiting only for that wonderful smile, but it wasn't haggard. And his shoulders were twin towers of strength."
Put me down, I say!" The O'Keefe's voice was both outraged and angry; squinting around I saw him struggling violently to get to his feet. The Akka only held him tighter, booming comfortingly, peering down into his flushed face inquiringly. "But, Larry darlin'!" Lakla's tones were well, maternally surprised "you're stiff and sore, and Kra can carry you quite easily."
Put in a jackass, and youll put in yourself, Mister Doo-but-little, shouted Benjamin, who kept squinting along his little iron tube, with great steadiness. I give you but one moment to yield, cried Richard. Benjamin! Benjamin! this is not the gratitude I expected from you.
Matters began to look serious, it really appearing as if the beggars were going to follow us all the way up the China Sea until they had an opportunity of attacking us when there was no chance of any other vessel being near! "Let us stand towards them, Mackay and see what they're made of eh?" said Captain Gillespie, after squinting away at the two craft behind us.
From time to time they held some rare vintage aloft, squinting through the crystal-imprisoned crimson with deep content. "Not that my word is necessarily the last word concerning Burgundy," said Gatewood modestly; "but I venture to doubt that any club in America can match this bottle, Kerns."

This was the Marquis Triuizi, a man of about, my own age, tall, well made, squinting slightly, and with all the manner of a nobleman. He told me that besides coming to have the honour of my acquaintance, he also came to enjoy the fire, "for," said he, "there's only one fireplace in the house and that's in your room."
She will always be content if she can shine; her fancies are purely artistic, her desires will be satisfied if she can make a salon, and collect about her distinguished minds; her debauches will be in music and her orgies literary.

With the candle held in the swollen fingers of his injured hand, and a prospector's pick taken from the portal in his other, Casey went on cautiously, keeping an eye upon the roof which, to his wise, squinting eyes, looked perfectly solid and safe.

He was humble-hearted, but here was a question of justice and truth. To speak according to truth, according to what one believes to be the truth, is a duty; therefore, why did they persecute him? "You cannot change?" said the professor, bending over him and fixing on his face two squinting eyes. "You cannot change?" Don Rocco kept silent.
In the first place, I resolved to do my work, no matter how hard or dangerous it might be, so well that no man would be called upon to do it for me. Further, I put ginger in my muscles.
