That she was not his son's child hurt her now as often before in the past two months, but that he should have discovered her weeping at a moment when he might have been expected to enter was a keen hurt to her pride, and her heart swelled with a suspicion of his unspoken thoughts. She had never been effusive, she had never posed. He had no right to suspect her.
Your eyes are telling me things already. I don't get on with stiff people somehow. Lady Bassett calls me effusive. And I think myself there must have been something meteoric about my birth star. Doubtless that is why I agree so well with Nick. He's meteoric, too." She slipped cosily down upon a stool by Muriel's side. "He's a nice boy, isn't he?" she said sympathetically. "And is that his ring?
In the enlightened state of public opinion now prevailing, true greatness lies in the moral influence which we exercise rather than in sterile conquests. The proclamation ended with the words: 'To-morrow you will be the citizens of a great country. Not the least effusive demonstrations were reserved for Cavour, who joined his Sovereign a few days after the battle of Magenta.

That's why I feel uncommonly annoyed with Mopsy for falling in." Carroll made a grimace. "If that's how it strikes you, any advice I could offer would be wasted.
Snawley-Grubbs, who hailed him with effusive cordiality. "My dear, Sir Francis!" he said in a rich, thick, uncomfortable voice. "This is an unexpected pleasure! Won't you come upstairs? My girls are having a little informal dance just among themselves and their own young friends quite simple, in fact an unpretentious little affair!"
Salvatore had left the three donkeys at Cattaro, and had come the rest of the way on foot, while Maddalena rode Gaspare's beast. "The donkey you bought is for Maddalena," Maurice had said to him. And the fisherman had burst into effusive thanks. But already he had his eye on a possible customer in Cattaro.
