When their head-dress is thus so far prepared, they cover it with a greasy cloth, which surrounds their head, covers the one half of their nose, and ties below their chin. To give a brilliancy to their eyes, they comb the eye-lashes with a great copper needle, which they have rubbed upon a blue stone.
Cap came as she was commanded and stood there with some irrepressible and incomprehensible mischief gleaming out from under her long eye-lashes and from the corners of her dimpled lips. The magistrate then administered the oath to Craven Le Noir, and bade him look upon Capitola and give his evidence.
"I hear the eulogy, I know the sonnet," said Violetta, smiling, and described the points of a brunette: the thick black banded hair, the full brown eyes, the plastic brows couching over them; it was Vittoria's face: Violetta was a flower of colour, fair, with but one shade of dark tinting on her brown eye-brows and eye-lashes, as you may see a strip of night-cloud cross the forehead of morning.
She had been educated at Mrs. Somebody's seminary in Mountjoy-square had been taught to dance by Montague and had learned French from a Swiss governess with a number of similar advantages a very pretty figure dark eyes long eye-lashes and a dimple and last, but of course least, the deserved reputation of a large fortune.
Then I knew that I had been taken in by the Prince's wicked trick, and that my husband was to be the young viscount, not the old uncle! I do not think that this was much comfort to me at the moment, for, all the same, I was going into a strange country, away from every one I had ever known.

The men have fine broad and deep chests, indicating great bodily strength, and are remarkably erect and upright in their carriage, with much natural grace and dignity of demeanour. The eye is generally large, black, and expressive, with the eye-lashes long.
Red and gold and green and blue flecks of confetti were glimmering like fishscales over her black wrap and were even entangled drolly in the absurd lengths of her eye-lashes. "It is if I have not forgotten how to dance," she murmured. "If it is a waltz, perhaps " It was a waltz. Ryder had an odd impression of her irresolution before, with strange eagerness, he swept her into the music.
She saw a slight, lean figure, promising to be tall; a complexion browner than cream-coloured, although in a year or two it might have that tint; plentiful curly black hair, tied up in a bunch behind with a rose coloured ribbon; long, almond-shaped, soft grey eyes, shaded both above and below by curling black eye-lashes.
To tell the truth, I was thinking of Cynthia. Without vanity, I believe I was as pretty as she is when I was a girl, I mean; I had not her dark eye-lashes, but then my nose was straighter. And now look at the difference!
The continual condensation of the moisture from the breath upon everything about the head and face is a decided inconvenience, and when it condenses upon the eye-lashes, and the upper and the lower lashes freeze together, the ice must be removed or it is impossible to open the eyes.
