Perhaps, had I known what was to happen before the leaves of that spring had fallen, I should have played less light-heartedly, and given more heed to Mr Evans, the Rector. Now, on one day in each week, generally on Thursdays, we had rather longer school hours than on the other days. On these days of extra work Hugh and I had dinner at the Rectory with Ned Evans, our schoolmate.
He laughed a little to himself light-heartedly, and gained the street door with unnecessary, heedless speed gained it on the moment that another pedestrian, moving swiftly as himself, entered, bringing him to a sharp consciousness of the moment. Incomer and outgoer each drew back a step, each laughed, each tendered an apology. "Pardon, monsieur!" "Pardon, mademoiselle!"
I don't see why I didn't understand and begin to defend Sam from himself right then instead of going carelessly and light-heartedly to Europe and letting him manage his own affairs. I didn't even write to him, except when I saw anything that interested or moved me, and then I just scribbled "remind me to tell you about this" on a post-card and sent it to him.
From the doorways dark, full-bodied women smiled happily their faces clean, and their long, black hair caught back with artistic bands of quill embroidery, as they called to the clean brown children who played light-heartedly in the grassed dooryards.
The tone of the repartees changed and instead of saying light-heartedly: 'I'll knock your silly face in. men grew laboriously polite and hinted that the cantonments were not big enough for themselves and their enemy, and that there would be more space for one of the two in another Place.

"I can believe that, Moise, after seeing you," said John. The happy-go-lucky Moise laughed light-heartedly. "If she'll don' hont on this land, she'll starve sure.

"Now I am sure, sure, sure," she cried, enraptured. "You have never said it before, Seer Marcous darling, and I must kiss you." I checked her with my hands on her soft shoulders. "Only if you promise to marry me." "Of course," said Carlotta. She said it as thoughtlessly and light-heartedly as if I had asked her to come out for a walk. Again I felt the odd spasm of pain.
"Very well, then," said R , "as far as we three are concerned, it's a bargain." "It is," we both replied.
