It must not be forgotten that these voyages in the tender were the particular pleasure and reward of his existence; that he had in him a reserve of romance which carried him delightedly over these hardships and perils; that to him it was 'great gain' to be eight nights and seven days in the savage bay of Levenswick to read a book in the much agitated cabin to go on deck and hear the gale scream in his ears, and see the landscape dark with rain and the ship plunge at her two anchors and to turn in at night and wake again at morning, in his narrow berth, to the glamorous and continued voices of the gale.
When dawn broke over the capital city of Walden, the sight was appropriately glamorous.

Mary's heart was down in the Rainbow Valley, whence came sweet, distance-softened sounds of children's laughter, but her fingers were under Miss Cornelia's eye.
Gabriele continued on to rectify what might have been a negative impression. She was making reference to the initials on the woman's blouse. "Hilda Estrella." The stranger said her last name like she was a glamorous movie star. "Are you a star?" "In everything I do in my small way." "In a family of stars or with a husband who is a star?"

Morning gave pure elation, as though all created being must strive; noon was the pulse of existence at the top of its activity; evening was glamorous; and all the lower sky was spread with those colours which Titian stole from the joyous horizon that filled his eyes.
Who and what these friends were his swift thought did not stay to ask. His glamorous fancy saw them as a great anxious throng, dominant men, yet respectful, who were trembling lest he should make a fatal step to answer for it with his political life.
