"Very well, but I believe I know." "Not you, my lad. I tell you I'm going to make an out-and-out good job of it." "Keeping it back so as not to go till I'm well enough to go too. That's why," said Carey, and he looked at the old sailor searchingly, and tried to catch his eye, the one that was open, the other being close shut.
"I know," she laughed, " to mellow!... How did you like it?" He hesitated a second. "It was a little rough," he confessed. "Always!" The laugh rippled sweetly. "Like a log of wood or a heap of stones or a large loaf of bread." He stirred uneasily. "Do you sit to him often?" he asked. Her eyes dwelt for a moment on his face. "Not now," she replied. He returned the look searchingly.
Then, turning to Grey, she laid one hand on his head, and taking his chin in the other, looked searchingly in his face as she said: "I wonder if you are the same boy I used to like so much, or has a trip to Europe spoiled you, as it does so many Americans?" "Not a bit of it," Grey answered, merrily.
Then she added with a plaintive little smile: "The Bible says, 'Love thy neighbour as thyself. I am doing my best to live up to that, but sometimes you make it awfully hard for me." He went to the door with her. She paused for a moment on the step to look searchingly up the road and through the trees. There was no sign of her mother. The anxious, worried expression deepened in her eyes.
He thought at first that some wild animal was prowling near, but second thought convinced him that human beings had come. Gazing through the thicket, he saw an Indian warrior walking among the trees, looking searchingly about him as if he were a scout. Another, coming from a different direction, approached him, and Henry felt sure that they were of the party of Timmendiquas.
Allow me to hope that you will think better of it, and take that step." A fearful cry rang from her lips, her eyes glowed like burning coals, and she raised her clinched hand as though she had hoped it might fell him to the earth. But suddenly it sank helpless to her side, and she looked long and searchingly into Count Esterhazy's face. A long silence ensued.
"But you ought NOT to expose yourself," she pleaded. He shrugged his shoulders. "'The man in righteousness arrayed, The pure and blameless liver, Needs not the keen Toledo blade, Nor venom-freighted quiver," he quoted. She looked at him searchingly. "I wish I could understand you," she said. "There's simply nothing to understand," he laughed. She bowed her head, brooding.
Wilkinson gazed searchingly at her daughter. Marjorie had always been truthful, but this explanation did not sound plausible. Girls did not usually get so worked up over letters from other girls whom they had never seen. That part of the explanation was true, she knew; for Marjorie could not conceal her eagerness for the postman, and her depression when she received nothing. But Mrs.
Up to the crowning masses of her dusky hair where the little serpents' heads darted forth glisteningly, over the dainty curve of her white shoulders and bosom where the symbolic Eye seemed to regard him with a sleepy weirdness, down to the blue-veined, small feet in the silvery sandals, and up again to the red witchery of her mouth and black splendor of those twin fire-jewels that flashed beneath her heavy lashes his gaze wandered hungrily, searchingly, passionately, his heart beat with a loud, impatient eagerness like a wild thing struggling in its cage, but though his lips moved, he said no word, she too was silent.
In the same sweet manner Iris contrived to grant the wishes of all. Gwen held back. "Have you no wish?" Iris asked kindly, and Gwen hesitated, then she said; "Yes. I want to be admired all the time and everywhere." Iris looked searchingly at the pretty, but pert face. Then she said; "Be kind, be good, be sweet, be true, and all the world shall smile on you."
