Yes, there lay Willoughby, curt, inexpressive, perpetually jocular, robbing a whole continent of mystery, enquiring after his daughter's manners and morals hoping she wasn't a bore, and bidding them pack her off to him on board the very next ship if she were and then grateful and affectionate with suppressed emotion, and then half a page about his own triumphs over wretched little natives who went on strike and refused to load his ships, until he roared English oaths at them, "popping my head out of the window just as I was, in my shirt sleeves.
He recollected that a well-known lawyer lived there. What could the rough lieutenant want with him? He jumped at a conclusion, which was not far from the truth; still his countenance wore its usual calm and inexpressive look. "Ha! my old shipmate! I did not expect to see you so soon in our own well-beloved native land," he exclaimed.
Michaels' face was looking over his shoulder in the door to the back, her face a sick white. "You get out of here, Sam," Michaels said. "You get out and don't you come back. Ever." Collins' hands moved emptily in air. He was always better with his hands than words, but this time even they seemed inexpressive. He crumpled the sack of nails in both fists, and turned and left the hardware store.
Miss Leeds walked straight across to the coffin and stood looking down on the waxen inexpressive dignity of the dead. Sir Richmond's brows and nose had become sharper and more clear-cut than they had ever been in life and his lips had set into a faint inane smile. She stood quite still for a long time. At length she sighed deeply.
Flora, patient, steeled against every hurt and every disgust to the point of wondering at herself, said: "You push your dislike of of Roderick too far, papa. You have no regard for me. You hurt me." He, as ever inexpressive to the point of terrifying her sometimes by the contrast of his placidity and his words, turned away from her a pair of faded eyes.
The luxuriant landscape is in the main Giorgionesque, save that here and there a naked branch among the leafage and on one of them the woodpecker strongly recalls Giovanni Bellini. The same robust, round-limbed young Venetian, with the inexpressive face, does duty here as St.
The crimson flag was waving on the western turret, just as it waved in May, and so, with his two wooden legs projecting at right angles to his body, sat alone, on the same bench, the lone old pensioner. I seemed to have been sleeping for three months. I felt sad, and knew not why. How ideal is the reality of life! and the inexpressive cause of grief is the consciousness of that truth.
"Yes," grunted the serang without looking at the man behind him. "Between the islands there was a boat," pronounced the man very softly. The serang, his hands behind his back, his feet slightly apart, stood very straight and stiff by the side of the compass stand. His face, now hardly visible, was as inexpressive as the door of a safe. "Now, listen to me," insisted the helmsman in a gentle tone.
But when we ridicule the triteness of monumental verses, we forget that Sorrow reads far deeper in them than we can, and finds a profound and individual purport in what seems so vague and inexpressive unless interpreted by her. She makes the epitaph anew, though the selfsame words may have served for a thousand graves. "And yet," said I afterward to Mr.
But then of late she had been very inexpressive. Percy seemed to keep out of his mother's way as much as possible. How he amused himself, I cannot imagine. Next morning we went to call on the doctor, on our way to church. "Well, Mr. Armstrong, what do you think of my daughter?" asked the colonel. "I do not think she is in a very bad way. Has she had any disappointment that you know of?"
