When lost in such blissful reveries, not seldom moments arrived in which she imagined herself even felt as if she were capable, if not of marrying Lenorme in the flushed face of outraged society, yet of fleeing with him from the judgment of the all but all potent divinity to the friendly bosom of some blessed isle of the southern seas, whose empty luxuriance they might change into luxury, and there living a long harmonious idyll of wedded love, in which old age and death should be provided against by never taking them into account.
Before listening to their wooers they must have the open air, the sudden joyful flight from cluster to cluster on the sunlit slope, all gold with everlastings. Apart from the idyll of the twirling passes, a mitigated form of the Cantharides' blows, the Cerocoma refused to yield before my eyes to the last act of the bridal.
The eighth eclogue of Virgil, entitled Pharmaceutria, is particularly to our purpose in this point. There is an Idyll of Theocritus under the same name; but it is of an obscurer character; and the enchantress is not, like that of Virgil, triumphant in the success of her arts.
There have been more crimes committed in the world for lofty motives than one hears of." He leaned a little forward. They could see the smoke curling up from the house below, its gardens laid out like patchwork, the low house itself covered with creepers. "It was an idyll, that," he went on. "Bomford's trail is about the place now, the trail of some poisonous creature.
It was pressure from him that induced me to write a second "Idyll" and a third after I thought the first completed the picture, he set me thinking seriously of these people, and though he knew nothing of them himself, may be said to have led me back to them.

But their happy time is soon over; tragedy is about to follow idyll.

'I think he describes beautifully. Would you like to hear what he said today? 'I would, I replied, sincerely. "Agra," read this astonishing young lady, "is India's one pure idyll.
This was the poet Alfred, Lord Tennyson. He told them in poetry. Tennyson calls his poems the Idylls of the King. Idyll means a short poem about some simple and beautiful subject. The king that Tennyson sings of is the great King Arthur. Tennyson takes his stories, some from The Mabinogion, some from Malory, some from other books.
This is a sylvan idyll, telling of lofty trees, cool shades, and secret bowers of fern and vine and wild flower, in the moist and tangled redwood forests. There is little used but rough-barked tree trunks, but what delicate harmony of arrangement! This lumbermen's lodge is one building outside the Exposition palaces that should not be missed, even though almost hidden away against the south wall.
He sought forgetfulness in a species of mental intoxication, and countenanced his daughter's love idyll with such apparent approval that Lord Ventnor wondered whether Sir Arthur were not suffering from senile decay. The explanation of the shipowner's position was painfully simple.
