You are just the greatest, and the roundest and the reddest, and the sweetest cherry on the big tree.
"I want three of the biggest, yellowest, roundest poached eggs your fattest hen ever laid and a schooner of milk." The girl vanished into the back of the shop and presently I could smell toast. I discovered I was extremely hungry. In about eight minutes she came back with a tray on which was a large glass of creamy milk and the triple eggs for which I had prayed.
He handed me the papers he had been consulting while he questioned me; and my confusion can be imagined when I saw on the cover the word "Memoirs" written in my roundest hand.

Chanden Sing, always as quick as lightning when it was a case of hitting, pounded away with the butt of his rifle at the roundest part of one ambassador's body, when in his clumsy clothes he attempted to get up and run.
Yan for the first time realized the power of the "full cry," whose praises are so often sung. The hunters sat down to await the result, for, as Caleb pointed out, there was "no saying where the critter might run." The Hound bayed his fullest, roundest notes at quick intervals, but did not circle.
