And he said, "Do not dance with that man tonight, Alicia. I mistrust him much." His voice had more of a husband's command than a lover's entreaty. She looked at him with some scorn, but when she saw his face grow black for the Montressors brooked scant disregard of their authority, as I had good reason to know she seemed to change, and a smile came to her lips, though her eyes glowed balefully.
The Cap'n gazed on him balefully, and resumed: "'One Arizima Orff has bewitched and bedeviled him, his cattle, his chattels, his belongings, including one calf, one churn, and various ox-chains.
Like some of the rest of us, she never reflected how balefully her evil mood might operate; and that all things work for good in the end, will not cover those by whom come the offenses.
Instantly one of the men halted her, swung her about, clapped a palm over her mouth, and she saw him staring balefully down into her face. "You do that ageen I keel you!" he hissed. It was the evil-eyed man who had spied upon Queen Zelaya, as she had worshipped the pearl necklace in the van the evening before. Ruth was stricken dumb and motionless.
Why should I dream about monkeys if my nerves were all right? 'I often dream about all sorts of queer things. 'Have you ever dreamed that you were being chased up Broadway by a chimpanzee in evening dress? 'Never mind, dear, you'll be quite all right again when you have been living this life down here a little longer. Nutty glared balefully at the ceiling.
"This is the room," he said, turning the key and thrusting the door open; "the library they call it, but it's the front parlour in plain English." He entered and, holding the lamp above his head, stared balefully at the broken window. Thorndyke glanced quickly along the floor in the direction that the missile would have taken, and then said "Do you see any mark on the wall there?"

Mr Goble regarded him balefully. "Who told you to butt in?" he enquired sourly. "Conscience!" replied Wally. "Old Henry W. Conscience! I refuse to stand by and see the slaughter of the innocents.
Judge Gatchell discovered in himself a fund of sly humor that astonished everybody, and Miss Emmeline was like a November rose, sweet with a shy and belated girlishness, rarer for a touch of frost. And The Author was in a fairly good humor because they let him alone. Mr. Nicholas Jelnik dutifully put in his appearance after dinner. The Author was balefully polite to him, Alicia shyly friendly.
Elektra herself is perhaps more truly incarnate fury than Salome is incarnate luxury; ugliness and demoniacal brooding, madness and cruelty are here more sheerly powerfully expressed than in the earlier score; the scene of recognition between brother and sister is more large and touching than anything in "Salome"; Elektra's paean and dance, for all its closeness to a banal cantilena, its tempo di valse so characteristic of the later Strauss, is perhaps more grandiosely and balefully triumphant than the dancer's scene with the head.
