"He likes chicken better than anything else," murmured Miss Wingate as she buried a blush in Martin Luther's topknot. "Well, wanting ain't always a reason for being gave to," said the Doctor's mother with a chuckle as she admired the side view of the blush.
"I don't think Fly has much feeling, do you, Prudy? not like you and I, I mean!" "Pshaw! what do you expect of such a baby?" said Horace, indignantly. "You never saw a child so full of pity as this one is, when she knows what to be sorry for. But a great deal she understands about blindness! And why should she? Look here, Topknot; which would you rather do?
At Poru we tried in vain to secure a kind of gibbon that we heard almost daily on the other side of the river, emitting a loud cry but different from that of the ordinary wah-wah. Rajimin described it as being white about the head and having a pronounced kind of topknot. As far as we had advanced up the Barito River, Malay influence was found to be supreme.

Quickly the mousmes must deck themselves out. Chrysantheme is ready; Oyouki hurries, changes her dress, and, putting on a mouse-colored gray robe, begs me to arrange the bows of her fine sash-black satin lined with yellow-sticking at the same time in her hair a silver topknot.

We had acted illegally, on faith, after the ancient fashion ... and now see what a bad thing has come of it!
