It was a most gaudy and gorgeous crowd, as to costumery, and very characteristic of the country and the time, in the way of high animal spirits, innocent indecencies of language, and happy-hearted indifference to morals. It was fight or look on, all day and every day; and sing, gamble, dance, carouse half the night every night. They had a most noble good time. You never saw such people.
So Amy sailed away to find the Old World, which is always new and beautiful to young eyes, while her father and friend watched her from the shore, fervently hoping that none but gentle fortunes would befall the happy-hearted girl, who waved her hand to them till they could see nothing but the summer sunshine dazzling on the sea.

His grave, bronzed countenance, framed by a grey beard, revealed that he, too, brought no cheering news. He had never come to his young cousin's at so early an hour. His intelligent, kindly grey eyes surveyed Heinz with astonishment. What had befallen the happy-hearted fellow?
Kate was a good girl, fine-tempered and happy-hearted, but she had no accomplishments, none of those refinements of the other. If he wanted to present her at 'the Castle' one of these days, he did not know if she would have tact enough for the ordeal; but Nina! Nina was sure to make an actual sensation, as much by her grace and her style as by her beauty.
What sin have you committed, gentle, patient child; or our father, or our happy-hearted and gifted brother; or I I myself?

The young Scotsman, ignorant of all intrigue, was relieved to know that he had laid the firm foundation of his future fortunes.
"The wife's name? Did you learn it?" "Barbara St. Just." "Ah! I knew her once and will again. Manuel, am I beautiful tonight?" "How can you be otherwise to me?" "That is not enough. I must look my fairest to others, brilliant and blithe, a happy-hearted bride whose honeymoon is not yet over." "For his sake, Pauline?" "For yours.
I wanted to dance with you oftener, but the time was so short." "And you found another charmer?" "Well, Alicia sure is a wonder, isn't she? You know she is!" "Yes, she is," said Dolly, and for the life of her, she couldn't frown on the happy-hearted youth. Marly went off, and the others followed. "I'm not going to talk things over to-night," said Dolly, when the four were alone.
He was poor, yet always appeared to be giving something away; a stranger, yet everyone was his friend; no longer young, but as happy-hearted as a boy; plain and peculiar, yet his face looked beautiful to many, and his oddities were freely forgiven for his sake. Jo often watched him, trying to discover the charm, and at last decided that it was benevolence which worked the miracle.
