If I ventured to describe that attitude, there would be a fine howl but there the Venus lies, for anybody to gloat over that wants to and there she has a right to lie, for she is a work of art, and Art has its privileges. I saw young girls stealing furtive glances at her; I saw young men gaze long and absorbedly at her; I saw aged, infirm men hang upon her charms with a pathetic interest.
And absorbedly Barry Elder listened, his eyes on her changing face. When she paused he flung in some question or some anecdote of his own times in Italy and Sandy was often roused by unseasonable laughter, and thudded his tail in sleepy friendliness before dozing off to his dreams again.
Becoming conscious of his consciousness of her, he cast her deliberately out of his mind and concentrated upon Mr. Stevens. The two men gazed quite steadily at each other, not to the point of impertinence at all, but nevertheless rather absorbedly.
You could have settled there, or anywhere else and forgotten about Dara. But you didn't. Why not, since you're not a blueskin?" "But I am!" she said fiercely. "My parents, my brothers and sisters, and Korvan ." Then she bit her lip. Calhoun took note but did not comment on the name that she had mentioned.

They were all quiet and orderly, and some of them read seriously and absorbedly for several hours on 'The twentieth century, 'The boundaries of the United States, and 'The comparative greatness of Napoleon and Alexander. The younger children read storybooks in the same quiet manner. A children's room would relieve the pressure on all three departments of the library."
"Yes," said Marjorie, who was becoming absorbedly interested in this new game; "and here's the time-table, Uncle: but that isn't very pretty and it's so big. Oh, and here's the card, the bill of fare, you know, that we had in the dining-car. See, it has a picture on it."
He must save her the mortification of knowing she was sketching a living man, if he died for it. She sketched rapidly but fixedly and absorbedly, evidently forgetting all else in her work. From time to time she held out her sketch before her to compare it with her subject. Yet the seconds seemed minutes and the minutes hours.
