And Donald's withered face was now aglow with such a tenderness as only bygone years can loan to age; his eyes were ashine with tears, each one the home of sheeted days that had come back from the dead, and his parted lips were drinking deep of the mystic tides of memory. A rich mosaic was the visitation of this sterling race.
"Manley Fleetwood, you must throw it away. This is your fight be a man and fight." "Well there! May God damn me forever if I touch liquor again! I'm through with the stuff for keeps!" He held the bottle high, without looking at it, and sent it crashing against the stable door. "Manley!" She stopped her ears, aghast at his words, but for all that her eyes were ashine.
And then the fight again in the new-born day with Howie. The lad looked miserable. How could he give up such a holiday? Yet how allow Howie an uncontested victory with the latest stranger? Max and Muffie had run back along the path in pursuit of a lively lizard. Only Lynn and Pauline, their sweet little faces ashine with sympathy, hung on the gate. The lad blurted out his highest hope to them.
"Captain Dunbar! Captain Dunbar!" Swiftly he turned, and saw in the dim light a dainty figure, opera coat flowing away from gleaming arms and shoulders, a face with its halo of gold brown hair, with soft brown eyes ashine and eager parted lips, a vision of fluttering, bewildering loveliness bearing down upon him with outstretched hands. "What," he gasped, "you! Oh, you darling!"
Heru, indeed, but not the same princess as in the morning; an inspired priestess rather, her slim body wrapped in blue and quivering with emotion, her face ashine with Delphic fire, her hair loose, her feet bare, until at last when, as she stood within the limit of the magic circle, her white hands upon her breast, her eyes flashing like planets themselves in the starshine she looked so ghostly and unreal I felt for a minute I was dreaming.
They were not pale and thin, underfed and overworked, as were their prisoners; they were sleek and rosy, and ashine with health.
It would be a great thing for `Chubby, too, for she has as much worldly wisdom as a baby, and indeed her dear father is little better. It's no wonder I am pleased, is it, Peggy, when I think of all that this engagement means?" Peggy looked at her wonderingly. Flushed cheeks, radiant smiles, eyes ashine with happiness, and all this pleasure at the thought of what was to happen after her own death!
I said don't go to the Petrified Forests expecting a big thrill. Yet if you have eyes that really see, and go there after a rain when every single bit of rock is ashine with the colors of broken rainbows; or go there at high noon, when every color strikes back in spangles of light there is something the matter with you if you don't have a big thrill with a capital "B."
It is thus that a beautiful river, streaming down from the heights and ashine with magnificent glaciers, passes at length through plains and through cities, whence it receives only poisonous water.
Little Alice stood holding her father's hand, while Don, Nora, Harry and Beth, looked wide-eyed at the turn of events. "I wish," Alice broke into the silence, "that we might all stay here forever!" The tiny bright-eyed old lady, her loving heart ashine in her face, looked into the eyes of all of the happy group.
