"As he hath done unto My people, be it done unto him!" he muttered, but the words did not comfort him. Lamar moved, half-smiling. "That's right, Floy. What is it she says? 'Now I lay me down' I forget. Good night. Kiss me, Floy." He waited, looked up uneasily. Dorr looked at his wife: she stooped, and kissed his lips.
I shall sing and laugh, for I am no longer tired. I am happy. Perhaps I shall sing the song of 'The Outlaw, and for you." "I'll be listenin' every minute, Boca. Mebby if I ain't jest lookin' at you it'll be because " "Si! Even like the caballero of whom I shall sing." And Boca hummed a tune, gazing at Pete with unreadable eyes, half-smiling, half-sad.
He never forgot seeing her as she lay on the bed, when he was unfastening his collar. First he saw only her beauty, and was blind with it. She had the most beautiful body he had ever imagined. He stood unable to move or speak, looking at her, his face half-smiling with wonder.
She showed a fine set of even white teeth as she made this remark, and her eyes sought Copplestone's again with a direct challenge. Copplestone looked calmly at her, half-smiling; he was beginning, in his youthful innocence, to think that he already understood this type of young woman. And seeing him smile, Addie also smiled.
She wondered what books he would tell her to take up to her own room, and recalled the famous writers that she had either not looked into or had found the most unreadable, with a half-smiling wish that she could mischievously ask Deronda if they were not the books called "medicine for the mind."
Above, under a splendid canopy of flowers and fruit, in a tondo, severe and simple, is Madonna with Our Lord, and on either side an angel bows half-smiling, half-weeping, while without stand two youths of tender age, slender and full of grace, but strong enough to bear the great garland of fruits with lovely and splendid gestures of confidence and expectancy.
A girl's face from the shade of the sitting-room was looking out at him, half-smiling, but with heightened colour and a suppressed agitation. The girl was not more than twenty-five, graceful, supple, and strong. Her chin was dimpled; across her right temple was a slight scar. She had eyes of a wonderful deep blue; they seemed to swim with light.
"I thought he was going to prevent my interests from being too well represented," said Elizabeth, half-smiling. "I want him to make Mr. Luttrell understand that I have no desire to keep the property at all." "There is one drawback," said Mr. Colquhoun, "and one that I don't see how Mr. Heron will get over. He has never seen Brian, has he? How will he recognise him?
"That's a most haunting little song you sang, dear," she said. Mrs. Bellew answered: "The words are so true, aren't they?" George felt her eyes on him, and tried to look at her, but those half-smiling, half-threatening eyes seemed to twist and turn him about as his hands had twisted and turned about his mother's embroidery. Again across Mrs. Pendyce's face flitted that half-startled look.
An instant after she had gone on, with a look half-smiling, half-forbidding, thrown over her shoulder at him. "I've a notion to follow her," he said eagerly, and he took a step in her direction. Suddenly she turned and came back to him. "Your plans are in danger don't forget Felix Marchand," she said, and then turned from him again. "Oh, I'll not forget," he answered, and waved his cap after her.
