Meantime, she exultingly seated herself at the piano, and favoured him with two of his favourite songs, in such superior style that even I soon lost my anger in admiration, and listened with a sort of gloomy pleasure to the skilful modulations of her full-toned and powerful voice, so judiciously aided by her rounded and spirited touch; and while my ears drank in the sound, my eyes rested on the face of her principal auditor, and derived an equal or superior delight from the contemplation of his speaking countenance, as he stood beside her—that eye and brow lighted up with keen enthusiasm, and that sweet smile passing and appearing like gleams of sunshine on an April day.
Men of that generation did not age soon, Monsieur," said the Count, expanding his fine chest and laughing exultingly. "He married, en secondes noces, a lady of still higher birth than the first, and with a much larger dot.
"Yes," said Babbie, wringing her hands; "she will almost love me, but for what? For not marrying you. That is the only reason any one in Thrums will have for wishing me well." "No others," Gavin answered, "will ever know why I remained unmarried." "Will you never marry?" Babbie asked, exultingly. "Ah!" she cried, ashamed, "but you must." "Never."
But it would be worth it all all and more he told himself exultingly, if he succeeded as he must. His eyes shone with enthusiasm and he tingled with his joy, as he thought what success meant. A sound behind him brought him back to earth. He turned to see Toy picking his way gingerly over the rocks. "You old rascal!" he cried joyfully.

What right has the Church to regard as strangers any who are baptized Christians?" The Archbishop seized his advantage exultingly. "I will only remind you," said he, "of the Church Government Act a measure of no ancient date by which Parliament forced the Church to expel from benefice those who would not accept her discipline in matters of outward observance. You yourself voted for that measure."
"I shall not see her!" he said to himself exultingly, and at the same instant thought, how black was every corner of the earth but that one spot where Lucy stood! how utterly cheerless the place he was going to! Then he determined to bear it; to live in darkness; there was a refuge in the idea of a voluntary martyrdom. "For if I chose I could see her this day within an hour!
Marya Timofyevna, who had watched her all the time with light-hearted curiosity, laughed exultingly at the sight of the wrathful guest's finger pointed impetuously at her, and wriggled gleefully in her easy chair. "God Almighty have mercy on us, they've all gone crazy!" exclaimed Varvara Petrovna, and turning pale she sank back in her chair. She turned so pale that it caused some commotion.
It was not till I had quitted Syria, and when Dthemetri was no longer in my service, that this villainous, though well-motived trick, of his came to my knowledge. Mysseri, who had informed me of the step which had been taken, did not know it himself until some time after we had quitted Nablus, when Dthemetri exultingly confessed his successful enterprise.
This done and this dust also carefully stowed away, we departed, very much to the mystification of Marie and, I could not help feeling, of other eyes that peered in through keyholes or cracks in doors.
