Conditions in Rome had evolved our old friend, the Sophist, the man who lived but to turn an epigram, to soulfully contemplate a lily, to sigh mysteriously, and cultivate the far-away look. These men were elocutionists who gesticulated in curves, and let the thought follow the attitude. They were not content to be themselves, but chased the airy, fairy fabric of a fancy and called it life.
"Did he?" demanded Chunky eyeing them soulfully. "Yes, of course he did. You ought to remember the story. You have told it often enough." "How did he save them?" "He had a fountain pen, of course, silly! Have you forgotten your own story?" scoffed Tad. "He didn't have anything of the sort. This was another clerk. This one had a watch." Stacy glanced around expectantly. Not a face was smiling.
Once at the new Centre, Atmananda recited for me the money mantra. "Ya devi sarva bhutesu ratna rupena sangsthita nastasvai namastvai namastvai namo nama," he chanted soulfully. If I could have followed his words down the corridors of time, I would have seen him Ya devi... Dramatically increasing the cost of public meditation lectures and seminars. ... sarva bhutesu...

With a sigh of satisfaction she lit a cigarette from one of the candles, and leaning back, watched the smoke passing across the face of the reflection.
But the question was how long would it last. How long would it be before those big brown Italian eyes began looking soulfully at somebody else; somebody more.... It was here that Miss Wollaston chopped herself off short, hearing this time it was no false alarm Paula's step in the hall.
In the meantime, Washington, lost in admiration of his new possession, was drawing harmony, and some discord, from it and rolling his eyes soulfully. In the ecstasy of the moment he had forgotten his recent fright.
Bartley grinned. "It might help," he said as he stepped across the street. Taking down the rope from the nearest horse, he tied the end of the rope in the horse's bridle and threaded the end through the bridles of all five horses, tying the loose end to the last horse's bridle. "Just like stringing fish!" he murmured soulfully.
"Well," said Si, "I bet if ever I'm married I'll kiss my wife before I go away." "Me, too," echoed Shorty, very soulfully. Shorty and Si considered Nate Hartburn their special protege, and were deeply anxious to transform him into a complete soldier in the shortest possible time.
At the moments when Imber paused to remember, Howkan translated and a clerk reduced to writing. The courtroom listened stolidly to each unadorned little tragedy, till Imber told of a red-haired man whose eyes were crossed and whom he had killed with a remarkably long shot. "Hell," said a man in the forefront of the onlookers. He said it soulfully and sorrowfully. He was red-haired.
