Now, if we admit, broadly and at once, that there may be times and circumstances in which the inhaling the hot smoke of a powerful narcotic drug is useful to the human body, must it follow that the habitual resort to such a practice, and this under all circumstances, is useful also, and even free from the most serious inconveniences?
I brought my head closer to her own, and, while inhaling the perfume of her hair, whispered in her ear: "I love you, my dear child; I love you, little wife; don't you think that I do?" She turned toward me her eyes, moistened with tears, and said in a voice broken by emotion and so soft, so low, so tender, that it penetrated to the marrow of my bones: "I love you, too. But let me sleep!"
Not a jewel, not a flower! Only her height and her striking comeliness marked her off from the other girls. Under the curious, devouring glances of the whole market throng, Rafael smilingly greeted her, feasting his eyes on her fresh, pink skin, still radiant from the morning bath, inhaling the subtle, indefinable fragrance that hovered about that strong, healthy, youthful person.
There was no remedy, however, but patience, and the recollection that he was suffering in the cause of friendship. As the sun rose high, he became worse; his sense of smell appeared to acquire a morbid degree of acuteness, for the mere purpose of inhaling and distinguishing all the various odours with which he was surrounded, from that of pitch to all the complicated smells of the hold.
Nora, for a short time, sat watching her husband who was snoring loudly; then she got up and peered out at the reddening sky.

At the same instant, it seemed, the report of a rifle woke the echoes.
The sound, deep, restful sleep of healthy young manhood, inhaling pure mountain air on the healthiest bed yet known to man. When it is past midnight, and the fire burns low, and the chill night breeze drifts into camp, they still do not rouse up, but only spoon closer, and sleep right on.
The words "head of the family" cast him at once into one of those inward combats in which self-interest and conscience are the contending parties the one strong, brutal, attacking fiercely with straight blows, the other retreating, breaking the measure by suddenly withdrawing its weapon while honest Jansoulet, the unconscious cause of the conflict, strode along beside his young friend, inhaling the fresh air delightedly with the lighted end of his cigar.
As I sat to-day in my little garden listening to the twittering of the birds, and inhaling the fragrance of my flowers, I was thinking how peaceful and happy my life is and how grateful I should be. You know, dear, just occasionally I long to be able to see again, to see the birds and the flowers, to see the beautiful world around me.
Here I am again leaning on my elbows by the windows, inhaling the freshness and gladness of this first wakening of the day. My eye always passes over the roofs filled with flowers, warbling, and sunlight, with the same pleasure; but to-day it stops at the end of a buttress which separates our house from the next.
A damp wind issued from it. "The sea," said Sergey Golovin, inhaling the air with nose and mouth. "The sea is there!" Musya answered sonorously: "My love which is as broad as the sea!" "What is that, Musya?" "The banks of life cannot hold my love, which is as broad as the sea."
