The people seem to be very kind to pet animals, though they do abuse the burros, cats especially being of a plump, handsome species, quite at home, always sleeping lazily in the sunshine. If they do purr in Spanish, it is so very like the genuine English article that its purport is quite unmistakable.
Of course you know that the Prince is in love with you, Lucille?" "I wish he were," she answered, looking lazily out of the window. He bent over her. "Why?" "I would persuade him to send me home again," she answered coldly. The Duchess looked up from her knitting.
He kicked the embers apart and rose to his full height, arms lazily outstretched, facing the flushing north with careless soul. Hay Stockard swore, harshly, in the rugged monosyllables of his mother tongue. His wife lifted her gaze from the pots and pans, and followed his in a keen scrutiny of the river.
Respiration was a soft physical pleasure. In the nights, so long he could not sleep them through, it was delightful to lie upon a cloud that floated lazily down the sky.

At the entrance to the throbbing, clanging building he paused an instant, and with a smile looked toward the yacht floating lazily in the distance. Then, with knees sagging beneath him from weariness, he entered. "I've heard the news!" cried Cherry, later that afternoon, shrieking to make herself heard above the rattle and jar of the machinery.
When he entered my room he was ever willing to tell us what he thought of editors, but his meerschaum with the cherry-wood stem gradually drove all passion from his breast, and instead of upbraiding more successful men than himself, he then lazily scribbled letters to them on my wall-paper.
Our work has been done with but little sense of our need of His blessing, with but little ardour of desire for His power.
