She went to meeting every Sabbath day and sang as usual, but between the hymns she sat with her beautiful face as irresponsive to all around her as a painted portrait, and more so, for the eyes of a portrait will often seem to follow an ardent gazer.
It was upraised, gazing on the picture with an expression of delight; the bonnet thrown back, while the large sable cloak of the gazer had fallen partly off. The countenance was more beautiful than the beautiful picture.
"Yes," eagerly; "such lovely hair and whiskers, perfect gold color; and fair as a woman." "So I should judge," and she continued to gaze. Blonde he was, certainly; hair thrown carelessly back from a brow broad and white; eyes, light, but with an expression that puzzled the gazer. "Eyes, what color?" she said, without taking her own off the picture.
It was while we were discussing our oysters, the very first offered of the season, that she spoke to me, suddenly, abruptly: "Margaret, do you know that man at the second table back of us? He hasn't taken his eyes from you for the last ten minutes." My heart almost stopped beating, for my intuition told me at once the identity of the gazer.
The thing was unavoidable; and the sole palliation that it admitted was to break the concentration of the public gaze, by associating Sir Sidney with some alien group, no matter of what cattle. Such a group would relieve both parties gazer and gazee from too distressing a consciousness of the little business on which they had met.

In a corner of the garden, right against the high wall, stands an open summer-house. It is quite simply built of green lattice-work, which forms a large arch backed by the wall.
Emerson took us into the garden to see the beautiful roses in which she took great delight. One red rose of most brilliant color she called our attention to especially; its 'hue' was so truly 'angry and brave' that I involuntarily repeated Herbert's line, 'Bids the rash gazer wipe his eye, from the verses which Emerson had first repeated to me so long ago.
She was a little paler than the connoisseur in female loveliness would demand in his ideal, and her expression was a little inclined to sadness; but it was a sadness or rather a sweet dignity more winning than repulsive to the gazer.
Pictures giving information as to something past, present, or future, which the gazer has no other chance of knowing." General Directions for Crystal Gazing. An old English authority on the subject of crystal gazing handed down to his students a certain set of general directions and rules to govern the conduct of their experiments.
