But there was no lavishing of expense.
Bretton's foot approach, she would have nestled quiet as a mouse under the bedclothes. Whilst lavishing her eccentricities regardlessly before me for whom she professed scarcely the semblance of affection she never showed my godmother one glimpse of her inner self: for her, she was nothing but a docile, somewhat quaint little maiden.
"I don't wonder at that, poor darling!" murmured Nealie, lavishing endearments on him, which he accepted all in good part, although he had been so hotly resentful of Miss Clarke's openly expressed affection.
"Harley, Harley! do not speak to me in that cruel voice, do not look at me with those hard eyes!" "You knew it, then, you, my mother!" continued Harley, unmoved by her rebuke; "and why did you never say, 'Son, you are wasting the bloom and uses of your life in sorrowful fidelity to a lie!

But he had to deny himself, and choke down his desire, for such a recognition might cost more than it would come to: so he turned away his head, and left the two soiled lads to go on with their shoutings and glad adulations, unsuspicious of whom it was they were lavishing them upon.
Whilst waiting for permission to have Tartufe played, Moliere had brought out le Medecin malgre lui, Amphitryon, Georges Dandin, and l'Avare, lavishing freely upon them the inexhaustible resources of his genius, which was ever ready to supply the wants of kingly and princely entertainments.
Who knows that in the place where we now are, there may not be raised a pyramid taken from the East?" "These are the secrets of the future," said Milton.

I do not well understand them; and I do not recognize their wisdom when I see them lavishing their admiration upon men such as he who now rules you.
