But eventually it was not really long there came the quick rush of Mrs. Hallam's feet along the upper hall, and the woman reappeared, one hand holding her skirts clear of her pretty feet as she descended in a rush that caused the candle's flame to flicker perilously. Half-way down, "Mr. Kirkwood!" she called tempestuously. "Didn't you find it?" he countered blandly.
I never discovered that she felt more deeply; simply more strongly, more tempestuously, after the nature of women. Her feelings were not more complex, they were merely more strongly accentuated. A woman in love imagines that she is the pivot on which the world revolves.
These few and broken directions may serve to show my readers what certainly they failed to convince myself of that a new chapter of my life had opened before me; and that, in proportion to the length of time my feelings had found neither vent nor outlet, they now rushed madly, tempestuously into their new channels, suffering no impediment to arrest, no obstacle to oppose their current.
This is the modern spirit; why not give it a look in?" "Do I understand you to say, Berryman, that you don't enjoy a spicy book?" asked Washer with his smile; and at this question the little fat man sniggered, blinking tempestuously, as if to say, "Nothing pleasanter, don't you know, before a hot fire in cold weather."
"What's become of the man you were engaged to?" quizzed the Senior Surgeon sharply. "Why he's married!" said the White Linen Nurse. "And they've got a kid!" she added tempestuously. "Good! I'm glad of it!" smiled the Senior Surgeon quite amazingly. "Now he surely won't bother us any more." "But I was engaged so long!" protested the White Linen Nurse.

Then Bailey removed his brier and heaved tempestuously in the throes of great and silent mirth. It was a dwarf.
Mademoiselle Cormon appeared so radiant, so triumphant, that the company thought her handsome. This extraordinary brilliancy was not the effect of sentiment only. Since early morning her blood had been whirling tempestuously within her, and her nerves were agitated by the presentiment of some great crisis. It required all these circumstances combined to make her so unlike herself.
The face, gnarled and tempestuously bearded, which had been perpetuated by a hundred laborious painters, glared from the pillow at Rufin with indignation and protest. Rufin suppressed an impulse to speak forcibly, for one has no more right to strip a man of his pose than of his shirt. He smiled at the angry invalid conciliatingly. "See how I forget myself!" he said apologetically.
While his horse plodded up the hill to where the lava outcroppings began, Lance meditated gloomily on the madness that had driven him to her. He had felt so sure of himself and his future, so much the master of his destiny and hers! Yet, even while he wooed her tempestuously he had known that it was madness, that Trouble was reaching even then to pluck him by the sleeve.
This tender intimacy of night the natural intimacy of husband and wife; this sense, which would not be denied, however sternly he might hold it in check, of her dear form beside him; the little refinements and self-revelations of a woman's room; his half-rights towards her, appealing at once to love, and to the memory of that solemn pledge by which he had won her what man who deserved the name but must be conscious, tempestuously conscious, of such thoughts and facts?
