He found Jael, and said, "Jael, dear, couldn't you like Uncle Raby? he loves you dearly." He then appealed to her heart, and spoke of his uncle's nobleness in fearing to obtain an unfair advantage over her. To his surprise, Jael blushed deeply, and her face softened angelically, and presently a tear ran down it. "Hallo!" said Henry. "That is the game, is it? You stay here." He ran back to Mr.
Peter, as Felicity reminded us with a burst of tears, had been so fond of apple turnovers. And, oh, how good we were! How angelically and unnaturally good!

Even Felicity and Dan, for once in their lives, got through the day without any exchange of left-handed compliments.
Still, I did not experience the slightest degree of alarm: our little craft was behaving beautifully angelically. Bob termed it, and really it almost merited the expression.
He evaded a direct answer by sayin', "As you alluded to the little indirect ways of women, dearest madam, you will pardon me for saying that it is my belief that the soft gentle brains of females are unfitted for the deep hard problems men have to grapple with.

She was angelically fair, and, young as she was she could not have been more than six years old her dark-blue eyes had a beauty of mind which must have been remarkable twenty years later.

But it doesn't make much real difference for it isn't likely I'll ever be either. It's certain I'll never be angelically good. Mrs. Spencer says oh, Mr. Cuthbert! Oh, Mr. Cuthbert!! Oh, Mr. Cuthbert!!!"
Anthony in the leisure moments when they were not actively engaged in temptation. I don't believe her father was an English vice-consul. He was Satan. I wonder what she told Mrs. McMurray. I have been thinking over the matter to-night. The good lady was wrong. Whatever were the morals of the Renaissance, personalities were essentially positive. They were devilishly wicked or angelically good.
