The little party on the platform went back through the yellow haze of the hot afternoon, to the quiet old house. Ah! how indescribably quiet and lonely now! Some one might have lain dead in those echoing rooms, so deadly was the stillness. There was one consolation for Grace and Eeny in their solitude. Doctor Frank was going to remain in the village.
He knew that the canoe was moving, moving rapidly; for giant pines along the shore, looking solid and black as mourning pillars, shot by him as if theirs were the motion, with an effect indescribably weird. Now and again a gray pine stump, appearing, if the light struck it, twice its real size, passed like a shimmering ghost.
They were indescribably weird and thrilling, and she delivered them with a verve and sweetness which was amazing. I sat at one of the little tables with which the room was dotted, listening entranced. 'Time passed more rapidly than I supposed. While she sang I sipped the liquor with which the old woman had supplied me.
We should strive for a better inheritance, than can be possessed in this life. "'Now I esteem their mirth and wine. Too dear to purchase with my blood, Lord 'tis enough that thou art mine. My life, my portion, and my God." The sufferings of the wicked in hell will be indescribably great.

Brice peered at the animal in astonishment, seeking to classify it in his mind.

Coniferous trees, in general, seldom possess individual character, such as is manifest among Oaks and Elms. But the California forests are made up of a greater number of distinct species than any other in the world. And in them we find, not only a marked differentiation into special groups, but also a marked individuality in almost every tree, giving rise to storm effects indescribably glorious.
Even the moonlight, and the solitude, and the indescribably soothing and philosophic influence of the contemplation of a silent city from the serene heights of a balcony, did not prevail to take him out of himself into the upper ether of mental repose.
Balbilla was fond of lingering there, and as the morning of the twenty-ninth of December was particularly brilliant the sky and its infinite mirror the sea, gleaming in indescribably deep blue, while the fragrance of a flowering shrub was wafted in at her window like an invitation to quit the house she had sought a certain bench which, though placed in a sunny spot, was slightly shaded by an acacia.
