He put his arm about her waist; it was a large, strong, sophisticated arm, and very agreeable; he grinned at her with a devastating knowingness, while Kennicott glowed inanely.

She was glad, in retreat, to scamper ahead of the two men up-stairs to the hall-room in which Hugh slept.
By the gods, he was proposing! Inanely, in words of one syllable, as the butcher's boy might have told his love to the second kitchen maid. "I love you," he continued. Idiot! Often Mr. Magee had thought of the moment when he would tell his love to a woman.
In ways it was to him as though this sexual encounter had not yet occurred and were it to happen would be of importance to the world at large, so he inanely felt, concerning an interaction that had already taken place.
