Thou hast made his mouth Avid of all dominion and all mightiness, All sorrow, all delight, all topless grandeurs, All beauty, and all starry majesties, And dim transtellar things; even that it may, Filled in the ending with a puff of dust, Confess "It is enough." Yes, it is enough.
We had no other opportunity for the "jack-hunt," and so Emerson went home unsatisfied in this ambition, glad, no doubt, when he recalled the incident, that he had failed. The guides rude men of the woods, rough and illiterate, but with all their physical faculties at a maximum acuteness, senses on the alert and keen as no townsman could comprehend them were Emerson's avid study.
He was small, wiry, black-haired, black-eyed, black-mustached, with an olive complexion and even, pleasing, albeit at times wolfish, white teeth which indicated a disposition as avid and hungry as a disposition well might be. Mr. Summerfield had come up into his present state of affluence or comparative affluence from the direst poverty and by the directest route his personal efforts.
The subject of the reunion thus renewed, it was decided to hold it during the second week in August, and the six friends began an avid planning for it. From that the conversation drifted back to Overton College, always a fruitful topic for discussion. It was truly a heart-to-heart talk.

Joyce, crouching among the broad green leaves, looked tensely, dread and curiosity the child's avid curiosity for the supernatural alight in her face. In the wood a breath of wind stirred the leaves; the shadows and the fretted lights shifted and swung; all was vague movement and change.
