Parrhasius and his Captive. Parrhasius stood gazing forgetfully Upon his canvas.
Pierre was most struck, however, by the sight of Cardinal Sarno, who was lying back in an arm-chair with his eyes closed.

"It wouldn't do at all." "I should think not! I'm glad," continued Hedrick, truthfully, "that idea's out of your head! I believe Laura imagined the whole thing anyway."

Startled and embarrassed before the others, the young man at last advanced his, when Jack coolly put his own, as if forgetfully, in his pocket.

When he reached her he lifted his hand to his bare head forgetfully, meaning to take off his cap to her.
It was simply and forgetfully indifferent. Mr. Raleigh surveyed her with interest during the light table-talk. He had been possessed with a restless wish to see her once more, to ascertain if she had yet any fraction of her old power over him; he had all the more determinedly banished himself from the city, to find her in the country.
"Yes, my darling, quite pleased. Oh! you don't know all the joy the sight gives me!" And then, in the happiness with which she overflowed, Helene forgetfully leaned against Henri's shoulder.
La Cauchois, though at heart she wasn't downcast, now had some fears that she might be worried, because four little ones had gone off from her house all in a body, a window being forgetfully left open at night-time.
