Were her hands among those which now enthusiastically applauded the conclusion of the song? Under his breath, slowly, gently but most comprehensively, Carteret swore.
All Tournon was down at the water-side to meet us, and on the landing-stage was the very Mayor: a lean and tri-coloured man who took off his hat comprehensively to our whole company in a magnificent bow. Notables were with him the Sous-Prefect, the Mayor of Tain, the Adjoint, leading citizens who also bowed to us; but not with a bow like his!
And now horror began to mingle with awed interest, as they took in more comprehensively the sights in that place, and saw precisely what it contained. Denny's apprehensions had been only too well founded. For larder, food storeroom, the chamber certainly was. But what a storeroom! And in what state the "food" that stocked it was! All along the vast floor were laid rows of inert, fantastic bodies.
Smug came nearer, and waved his hand comprehensively toward the shining waters below them, and southward where a red-sailed Chinese junk lay at anchor opposite the Transportation Building. 'That is a lagoon, madam, he said, affably but low. 'Umph! It's no better-lookin' than our old mud scow!

"My love! my love!" she murmured over and over again, as if it were all she could utter, and as if with the use of that expression all things were said and done; and I replied as inevitably and comprehensively. It sounds inane enough in the telling of it, but meaningless phrases and abrupt expressions may, at certain moments in our lives, express everything.
If the long reach from this point to the deplorable iron bridge which discharges the pedestrian at the Academy or, more comprehensively, to the painted and gilded Gothic of the noble Palazzo Foscari is too much of a curve to be seen at any one point as a whole, it represents the better the arched neck, as it were, of the undulating serpent of which the Canalazzo has the likeness.

Alagona, in his "Compend of the Sum of Theology," by Thomas Aquinas, question 94, p. 230, "Sums" up all the Romish system in this comprehensively blasphemous oracular adage.
