The mountains lifted their great placid heads up among the sun-bathed clouds, and the fjord opened its cool depths as if to make room for their vast reflections.
In summer especially, the sun-bathed mountains, the pendant dewdrop, the melodious silences all these belong so much to both alike that I find it hard to distinguish the matins and the vespers of God's cathedral days. My voice trembled just a little as I gave out the psalm "Such pity as a father hath Unto his children dear,"
These facts she recalled. And, recalling them, found both the actuality of rain-blurred, wind-scourged town without, and anger-begetting memories of Brockhurst within, fade before a seductive vision of sun-bathed Naples and of that nobly placed and painted villa, in which as it seemed to her was just now resident promise of high entertainment, the objective delight of abnormal circumstance, the subjective delight of long-cherished revenge.
Sakr-el-Bahr smiled to think how little the presence of his galleys could be suspected, how innocent must look the sun-bathed shore of Africa to the Christian skipper's diligently searching spy-glass.
The natives who slept on either side of him as guard were both stabbed to the heart. The sight still further dulled the spirits of all. The rising sun flashed spears of light on a rocky spur that stretched out from the foot of the mighty Andes. A tall, straight figure stood silhouetted against a background of sun-bathed cliff.
We resumed our course; we had left Martinville some little time, and the village, after accompanying us for a few seconds, had already disappeared, when, lingering alone on the horizon to watch our flight, its steeples and that of Vieuxvicq waved once again, in token of farewell, their sun-bathed pinnacles.

She" with a gesture of his head backward at the prison "will no' be oot this month; sae she'll niver need to ken, eh?" Baubie nodded. He only spoke her own thoughts, and he knew it. The first turn to the right past the High School brought them out on the road before Holyrood, which lay grim and black under the sun-bathed steeps of Arthur's Seat.
A huge grizzly faced him on the trail one afternoon, growled its menace, and went lumbering into the big rocks with awkward speed. The way led through valley and morass, across hills and mountains. It wandered in a sort of haphazard fashion through a sun-bathed universe washed clean of sordidness and meanness. Always, as he pushed forward, the path grew more faint and uncertain.
Susan asked a little timidly. This cheery, sun-bathed scene was not quite her idea of a labor strike. "Well, some's always in debt and trouble annyway," Mrs. Cudahy said, temperately, "and of course 'tis the worse for thim now!" She led Susan across an unpaved, deeply rutted street, and opened a stairway door, next to a saloon entrance.
