The salmi which followed it was good, and even the Feodora chef could not have sent up a better rum omelette. Sir Bartholomew was wearing a canary-coloured waistcoat with mother-of-pearl buttons. It seemed to Gorman that the expanse of yellow broadened as luncheon went on. Perhaps it actually did.
She knew nothing of awe, kindly soul; the great and the small were all the same to her. She remembered without rancor the time when Mrs. Bennington scarcely noticed her; but sorrow had visited Mrs. Bennington and widened her vision and broadened her heart; and the two met each other on a common basis, the loss of dear ones. The clock is invariably hung in the rear of the church.
In the hearts of the two old women, ever fighting their uphill battle with adversity, burned the essence of big faith, the faith that plays with mountains. Hidden behind the curtain, an indulgent onlooker might have smiled, but tears would have wet his eyes before the smile could have broadened into laughter.

A sensation of freshness overspread his body, causing him to sigh with pleasure. His limbs seemed to relax beneath the icy touch.
