It was horribly delicious. I did not withdraw my hand, which he kissed, but lingeringly. The clock struck two, and the last sound had long since died away when his lips were still there, quivering with rapid little movements, which were so many imperceptible kisses, moist, warm, burning. I felt gleams of fire flashing around me.
His broad features became broader still, as a huge, red hand was reached out. I saw it close lingeringly over the box, and then Mr. Cooke had struck a match. The chief stepped over the washboard onto the handsome turkey-red cushions on the seats, and thus he came face to face with me. "Holy fathers!" he exclaimed. "Is it you who are here, Mr. Crocker?" And he pulled off his cap.
There were birches and firs, beech and larch and mountain ash all mixed together, and ever so many cherry-trees. The head man lead them across a little, dark lake that lay at the foot of the rock, staring up like an evil eye. "It was here that Little Anna drowned her baby she that was betrayed by her master," he said lingeringly.
"Do you know," she answered, her eyes burning in her pale face, "you have very pretty, soft dark hair? Does it feel as soft as it looks?" She raised her hand, and ran her fingers lingeringly through his short, thick hair. "Why," she said brightly, "here are some silvery threads on your temples. Troubles, darling?" "You shall pull them out," he answered, drawing her little hand to his lips.
Like a child, she clung to him, and after a while, with an impulse sublimely natural, she lifted her lips to his. He pressed his lips upon them closely, lingeringly. "Better now, sweetheart?" he whispered. And she, clinging to him, found voice to answer, "Nothing matters now you have come." The consciousness of his protecting care filled her with a rapture almost too great to be borne.
At last he turned his face towards the window, and, not looking at me, said lingeringly: "This is a pleasant place." I knew that he would remain. I had not seen Mrs. Falchion during Roscoe's illness; but every day Justine came and inquired, or a messenger was sent. And when, this fortunate day, Justine herself came, and I told her that the crisis was past, she seemed infinitely relieved and happy.
Jim waited till the door had closed lingeringly on the girl; then he stepped forth from his concealment and waited. Abreast of him Elliot stopped; aware, it would seem, of the menace in the other man's eyes. "You wished to speak with me?" he began. "Speak with you no! I want to kick you." The minister eyed him indignantly. "What do you mean?"
She fussed over the baby lingeringly, but finally resigned it to the nurse. "Take it into the bathroom," she said, "where everything's ready to feed it though I never dreamed " As Nora was about to depart, she detained her. "Let me look at it again."
Be the garden-lover what he may day-dreamer, fainting heart, troubled soul how gently the shadow-finger on the dial points the time for him! How softly, almost lingeringly, it lets the moments slip from gold to gray, seeking to give him, to the full and unfretted, his little hour in the sunshine! And yet, the gentlest marker of time must mark.
He did not marry till rather late in life; and at the time when Arthur was growing up—the time when memory intwines itself most lingeringly with its surroundings, the time which comes back to us at ecstatic moments in later, sadder days—all the entourage of the place was at its loveliest.
