What beauty it gives to His gentleness, to the leisureliness of heart with which He was ready to make everybody's sorrow His own, and to lay a healing and a loving finger upon every wound!
We in England watched these things, not realising that our own confidence in the military prospects and the resisting power of the Allies, was partly to blame for American leisureliness.
The vessel, following its curves, tacked continually, its great sail intensely white against the blue of inlet, bay and sky, and the shadeless green of the marshes, zigzagging from side to side with provoking leisureliness.
Things were bad enough as it was." A ray of interest illumined the leisureliness of the Hon. Geoffrey's eyes. "You mean about Mrs. H'm, yes?" he said. "People are talking; you can't stop that.
