The homage in the young girl's voice made the little Diva more good-humouredly insistant than before, and Goneril was too well-bred to make a fuss. She stood by the piano wondering which to choose, the Handels that she always drawled, or the Pinsuti that she always galloped. Suddenly she came by an inspiration. "Madame," she pleaded, "may I sing one of Angiolino's songs?"
Nor did the man again turn to his book or attempt to take up the train of thought that had so interfered with his reading. Something more compelling than any printed page something more insistant than his own thoughts of Life and its meaning lured him far away from his grown up days took him back again into his days that were gone.
His analytical bent saved him many times, though he was not sensitive to this. The fire if there was any in him never made headway against this insistant demand to know the significance of these manifold inward agitations.
No matter what the situation whether set to laughter, to terror, or to tears beneath it all throbbed one insistant question: "Has the woman who sells herself for money a soul?" With breathless interest he watched the cruel carving of her body into tiny pieces.
"That is Johan," Keith shouted back triumphantly, "and his papa is a vaktmästare, too." "Come right up and let me speak to you," was the insistant rejoinder from above. "Oh, please, mamma," the boy pleaded, his voice breaking a little, "can't I stay just a little longer?" "You must come at once," his mother commanded. "Is that your mumsey," Johan asked.
Once out of the narrow Villerville streets, and the pastoral was in full swing. The sea along this coast was not in the least insistant; it allowed the shore to play its full gamut of power. There were no tortured shapes of trees or plants, or barren wastes, to attest the fierce ways of the sea with the land.
Here his thoughts became disconnected, and wandered beyond his control. He let them go, and listened, instead of thinking, to the notes of the nightingale singing in his garden. It was now being answered by others at a distance, with incessant repetitions of a flute-like warble, and then came the long sobbing trill and cry of love, piercing the night with insistant passion.
The others looked at her too, as she stood surprisingly fair and insistant among them, Ensign Sand with humble eyes and disapproving lips. As she began to speak the silence widened for her words, the ship's cook stopped shuffling his feet. "Oh come," she said, "Come and be saved." Her voice seemed to travel from her without effort, and to penetrate every corner and every consciousness.
The water was as smooth as glass, and in the sunshine that every moment became more insistant, Dorothy, in her linen dress, paddled away with all the skill she had acquired in dear old Glenwood School lake. She had discarded the nurse's cap, and the coat, and as her own suit was beneath the linen, she was only waiting for an opportunity to discard the skirt. "It pulls," she thought.
The walls and floor serve as a background and should not be insistant or startling in color; and the size and height of the room, the amount of wall space, the position of doors, windows and fireplace, the quantity and quality of the light, and the connecting rooms will all be factors in the color scheme and materials chosen.
