For the greater promotion of calm and of sanity he welcomed the young girl's change of dress.
These great seas of Canada have often engaged my thoughts. Tideless, they flow ever onward, to keep up the level of the vast Atlantic, and in themselves are oceans. How is it that the moon, that enormous blister-plaster, does not raise them? Simply because there is some little error in the very accurate computations which give all the regulations of tidal waters to lunar influences.
She had seen Gluck's Armide that year, and played from memory the music of the enchanted garden the music to which Renaud approaches, beneath the light of an eternal dawn, the music that never gains, never wanes, but ripples for ever like the tideless seas of fairyland.

The villas along the shore towards Posilippo face the sun all day in winter, for they look due south from the water's edge, and their marble steps lead down into the tideless sea, as though it were a landlocked lagoon or a Swiss lake.
Least irritation, least effort, the ideal existence: a jellyfish floating in a tideless, tepid, twilight sea." "But you're missin' all the good things," Billy objected. "Name them," came the challenge. Billy was silent a moment. To him life seemed a large and generous thing.
At first sight it seemed to be but a narrow, tideless, windless bit of backwater; and the first impulse of the passing stranger was to ask how it came to be called the "Perdu." On this point he would get little information from the folk of the neighborhood, who knew not French.
