He was careful to array himself for tea-parties in all his innocent metaphysical vanities, to scatter profundities like epigrams, to flatter the pure intellects of ladies, while the solemn vagueness of his manner concealed from them the innermost frivolity of his thought.

Coralio lay sleeping calmly between toppling mountains and encroaching sea like a stolen babe in the arms of its abductors.
