All day they rush along, out of the rimy hazes of morning into the olive-colored clouds of evening again, with huge loud-grinding rumble; and do arrive in time at Gilge.
For the first time Warwick allowed Mark to take his place at the oar, and sat looking into the clear depths below as if some scene lay there which other eyes could not discover. "Who was the olive-colored party with the fine eyes and foreign accent?" asked Mark, lazily rowing. "Gabriel André." "Is he an Italian?" "No; a Cuban." "I forgot you had tried that mixture of Spain and Alabama.
His face was olive-colored what was visible of it for his beard was white and flowing, and a heavy drooping moustache fell over his lips. Locks of white hair showed from the turban's edge, and a pair of big, rubber-rimmed glasses of an amber tint partially hid his eyes. The whole make-up was false, it was clear to be seen, but a psychic has a right to disguise himself, if he choose.
And so we picture her with black, wavy hair and soft, dark eyes, with red cheeks glowing through an olive-colored skin, lips like a pomegranate, a sweet, patient, loving expression, and a voice "gentle and low" and full of sympathy and readiness.

Causon was due to putrefaction of bile in the smaller vessels of the heart, diaphragm, stomach or liver, and was an acute fever characterized by furred tongue, intolerable frontal headache, tinnitus aurium, constant thirst, delirium, an olive-colored face, redness and twitching of the eyes and a full, frequent and rapid pulse.
Right close to the swaying nest the boy hung, his limbs encircling it, his two hands locked upon it, trusting to it, just trusting to it. It bent low in a great sweeping curve, the nest swayed and swung from the movement of the swing downward, a little olive-colored, speckled head peeking cautiously out as if to see what all the rumpus was about.
