When they were deposited on her tray she turned and walked to an empty table. Near it she stopped with mouth agape. There at an adjacent table were Rick and his father, MF. In Burger King words ensnared the artistic ascetic for she too succumbed to polite requests and smiles.
But now, when, standing behind his master's chair, he saw the aide de camp consorting with him whom he looked upon as the greatest man in existence, on terms of equality, all his faculties were paralysed. "Pegtop," said I, "hand me some yam, if you please." He looked at me all agape, as if he had been half strangled.
Through the dust, beyond the lunging figures, Rudolph was distantly aware of crowded bodies, of yellow faces grinning or agape, in the breach of the compound wall. Men of the neighboring hamlet had gathered, to watch the foreign monsters play at this new, fantastic game. Shaven heads bobbed, saffron arms pointed, voices, sharp and guttural, argued scornfully.
Forgiveness is the only cure of wrong. And hand in hand with Sense-of-injury walks ever the weak sister-demon Self-pity, so dear, so sweet to many both of them the children of Philautos, not of Agape.

If Walpurga could only have it! And with the clumsiness due to her inexperience in such matters she seized that, too, and put it with the other.
Play boldly this new card of statesmanship, and you may have from time to time as many inconsistent missions and messages as ambitious statecraft can suggest to you. Through all your gyrations the admiring crowd will still stand agape.
You sit there on the unfrequented grass, and the morning wears on. Tell me what you do on this bank so dry that it is agape with cracks? She looks in my face and says, "Nothing, nothing whatsoever." On this side of the river the bank is deserted, and no cattle come to water.
With her lank six feet sunk upon the side bench and her supine hands lying limply in her lap, Mrs. Taylor's chest was rising and falling in convulsive heaves; the nostrils of her large flat nose were dilated, and her wide mouth, with its loose colorless lips, was slightly agape. Her eyes were open and staring fixedly straight ahead. Mrs. Taylor was in a trance.
