She had always, she said, been dotingly fond of children, and it was certainly very shocking to send such a chit as the little Count to London by himself. My uncle was charmed with the arrangement. The beauty was a peculiar favourite of his, and, in fact, he was sometimes pleased to hint that he had private reasons for love towards her mother's daughter.
He looked dotingly across at Ellen, breathed "Well, well!" that greeting by which Scot links himself to Scot in a mutual consciousness of a prudent despondency about life. Age permitted him, in spite of his type, to delight in her.
Then he reviewed his whole theatrical life, his early triumphs, the golden wreath from the subscribers at Alencon, his marriage to this "sainted woman," and he pointed to the poor creature who stood by his side, with tears streaming from her eyes, and trembling lips, nodding her head dotingly at every word her husband said.
As a proof of the existence of this last characteristic, I may here mention that, when her first overweening confidence had yielded to doubt, she, although dotingly fond of her nephew, at this time about eight years of age, firmly refused to see him, "in order," she once said to me and the thought brought a deadly pallor to her face in order that, should the worst befall, her memory might not be involuntarily connected in his mind with images of dungeons, and disgrace, and shame.

Sister Elsie is dotingly fond of the girl, which hath slept in her bosom since infancy." "And why should I not demand her in marriage of your sister?" said the young man. "My Lord, you are an excommunicated man, and she would have horror of you. It is impossible; it would not be to edification to make the common people judges in such matters.
McArthur finishes his humble supper, kisses and fondles his daughter, whom he dotingly loves, and retires for the night. TOM SWIGGS has enjoyed, to the evident satisfaction of his mother, a seven months' residence in the old prison.
