How beautiful they were! How beautiful the world was to one who had been shut up for days in a close little room! How keen and sweet was the wind! And what a pleasant song the creaking of the ropes and the slatting of the sails made! It was a brilliant day. The sun shone with dazzling clearness. The sea was the bluest of the blue. The wind blew steady and strong.
Do you know last night when Aunt Stella was lying ill, something happened. An angel came to see her." "An angel!" Tessa's eyes grew round with wonder, and bluer than the bluest bluebell.

She had a thin, fair skin, red lips, and yellow hair though it was then powdered pretty white for the occasion and the bluest eyes that Barnaby beheld in all of his life.
Jay, who was something of a dandy, had a wonderful new coat that looked for all the world as it if had been cut from the bluest patch of sky and trimmed with edging taken from the whitest clouds. Even Mr. Crow and Mr. Owl took pains to look their very best. "But Mr. Toad couldn't see the need of such a fuss. He thought his neighbors spent altogether too much time and thought on dress.
The doctor understood the sarcastic smile that lurked about Raphael's mouth, and took his leave without finding another word to say. The Lake of Bourget lies seven hundred feet above the Mediterranean, in a great hollow among the jagged peaks of the hills; it sparkles there, the bluest drop of water in the world. From the summit of the Cat's Tooth the lake below looks like a stray turquoise.
