Here the trees, timber or fruit-bearing, as the case may be, make the wayside hedges ragged by their drip and shade, stretching over the road with easeful horizontality, as if they found the unsubstantial air an adequate support for their limbs.
"Even if you did go to your own chambers, I shouldn't let our new secretary have this room" they were in what the household called "the office" really Paul's luxuriously furnished private sitting room, which contained his own little treasures of books and pictures and bits of china and glass accumulated during the six years of easeful life "He will have the print room, which nobody uses from one year's end to another, and which is far more convenient for the street door.
Many's the time she'd waited on George Alston when he and the others would come riding over the Sierras on their long-tailed horses a bunch of them together galloping into Placerville like the Pony Express coming into Sacramento. "And some of 'em," said the old woman, rocking in easeful reminiscence, "would be as fresh with me as if I'd given 'em encouragement.
If so, wasn't the whole affair a matter of selling shadow rather than substance? But it is not in human nature to view with too stern a scrutiny a business which furnishes one's easeful self with all the requisites of luxury, and that by processes of almost magic simplicity.

In May the noises made by Monsieur fail to amuse. May I point out that though you may be "silent" in the first workings of a tragic and illegitimate passion, you are not "stagnant", and certainly not "easeful". At the end of May she finds out that Madame Héger does not like her, and Monsieur is "wondrously influenced" by Madame.
Then was I fast in mine ill-fated bridal chamber, deep asleep and outworn with my charge, and lay overwhelmed in slumber sweet and profound and most like to easeful death.
Without knowing how or why, looking at her, he believed in her; and his manner, which a moment before had been constrained and hesitating, became easeful with perfect confidence. Without knowing how or why he knew it, he knew that she had never squandered her love on the Jotun, neither had she come here to meet any Dane of the host.
