Grimes advanced on tiptoe with his finger to his lip.
Some of the other ladies might look after her a while." "Do you really think," she palpitated, "that I might? Do you think I ought?

"I couldn't leave her feeling as I do about her." "I don't know how you feel about her," said Dr.
She penetrated alone the wildest thickets; the nests of timid birds were known to her; and she traced the bee to his hidden city. Deep in the woods she discovered a wide chasm, in which the water of the sea palpitated with the beating of the great heart of Ocean from which it flowed.
Lawson's heart palpitated with eagerness if it should be her husband's father in his own carriage how delightful! that horrible Mrs. Thompson had not a carriage of her own yet, though she was always talking of it.

The wood-fire was clear, just now, when Dode came in; the little room was fairly alive, palpitated crimson; in the dark corners, under the tables and chairs, the shadows tried not to be black, and glowed into a soft maroon; even the pale walls flushed, cordial and friendly.
She put her hand on his arm and he felt it tremble there, while she palpitated, "We are all so glad you could go on to Rotterdam. My mother wanted me to tell you." "Oh, don't speak of that," said Breckon, not very appositely. Presently he forced a laugh, in order to add, with lightness, "I was afraid perhaps I had given you all some reason to regret it!"
