I have rather than otherwise cherished the thought that the Sienese school suffers one's eagerness peacefully to slumber benignantly abstains in fact from whipping up a languid curiosity and a tepid faith. "A formidable rival to the Florentine," says some book I forget which into which I recently glanced.
The boy sent up his name and was immediately admitted. "I presume you know why you are discharged from the service?" said Captain L , smiling benignantly. "Yes, sir," replied the boy, holding his head down submissively, "because of that accident I'm very sorry, sir." "Of course you must, and ought to be. Such heavy blows are not common, and hard to bear. I presume you go immediately to Buckhurst?"
It is one of those. beautiful, calm autumn evenings when all nature seems hushed in peaceful slumbers; when the stars seem to first peep cautiously from the impenetrable depths of their hiding-place, and then to commence blinking benignantly and approvingly upon the world; and when the moon looks almost as though fair Luna has been especially decorating herself to embellish a scene that without her lovely presence would be incomplete.
The men take off their hats obsequiously, and the women duck their heads, and our father says benignantly, "Going to church, boys? that's right! I like to see you honor the Great Master!"

Nobody but Alston, in their stratum at least, had come in person. No wonder he looked warily, lest he assume too much. Before they settled down, the elderly lady, with a thud of feet softly shod, walked through the hall and stood at the library door regarding them benignantly.
He was exchanging indifferent remarks with Donna Tullia, while Del Ferice looked on benignantly, and all three waited for Madame d'Aranjuez. Five minutes had not elapsed before she came, and her appearance momentarily dispelled Orsino's annoyance at his own rashness.
And now as he read stanzas that caused the soul to thrill within him, he lifted his eyes to the vast countenance beaming on him so benignantly. "O majestic friend," he murmured, addressing the Great Stone Face, "is not this man worthy to resemble thee?" The Face seemed to smile, but answered not a word.
Then a smile broke over the keen face, and the stern eyes lighted, as the doctor spoke. "I surely hope so, Mrs. Brenton," he answered her benignantly. "As you see, I like horse radish with my oysters. How is it about you?" It was not until a good two weeks later that Olive Keltridge came into any actual contact with the new rector.
