Finally, he seized her arm above the wrist, as he had done once at Aulus's, and drawing her toward him whispered, with trembling lips, "I love thee, Callina, divine one." "Let me go, Marcus," said Lygia. But he continued, his eyes mist-covered, "Love me, my goddess!" But at that moment was heard the voice of Acte, who was reclining on the other side of Lygia. "Cæsar is looking at you both."
I have kept also hidden in the camp," added he in a lower voice, "Senura." "Is she here?" asked the prince; and his eyes, glittering a moment before, were now mist-covered. "Let the army move on," said Tutmosis; "we will wait here for her." Ramses recovered himself. "Leave me, tempter! The battle will come in two hours." "What! a battle?"

We get one glimpse into His heart, as on to some ocean heaving and mist-covered.
The voice of the river far away, wafted from the mist-covered depths of the valley, and the faint rustling of the trees just outside, were for long after the only sounds which broke the silence. When Catherine appeared at breakfast next morning her hair was plainly gathered into a close knot behind, which had been her way or dressing it since she was thirteen.

And my young lady gives me one of those demure bows which ever set my heart agoing like a smith's hammer of a Monday. A traveller who has all but gained the last height of the great mist-covered mountain looks back over the painful crags he has mastered to where a light is shining on the first easy slope. That light is ever visible, for it is Youth.
No true swagger ever appears earlier, lest he might be politely requested to "move on" to the next station; whereas if he times his arrival exactly when "the shades of night are falling fast," no boss could be hard-hearted enough to point to mist-covered hills and valleys, which are a net-work of deep creeks and swamps, and desire the wayfarer to go on further.
