She should be intimate with the great bronze clock and mantel-ornaments, conspicuously presented in gratitude and long ago; she should be as one of the circle of eminent contemporaries, photographed, engraved, signatured, and in particular framed and glazed, who made up the rest of the decoration, and made up as well so much of the human comfort; and while she thought of all the clean truths, unfringed, unfingered, that the listening stillness, strained into pauses and waits, would again and again, for years, have kept distinct, she also wondered what she would eventually decide upon to present in gratitude.
The few shillings were laid on the dresser, where they remained unfingered until Hendry, with Leeby and Jamie, came in from church. "What siller's that?" asked Hendry, and then Jess confessed what she had done. "I wonder at ye, woman," said Hendry, sternly; and lifting the money he climbed up to the attic with it. He pushed open the door, and confronted the lodger.
John Bell has stood, for the most part, in unfingered tranquillity, for I read from a handier, single volume. Only at cleaning times has he been touched, and then but in the common misery with all my books.

I spent the next day at Arezzo, but I confess in very much the same uninvestigating fashion taking in the "general impression," I dare say, at every pore, but rather systematically leaving the dust of the ages unfingered on the stored records: I should doubtless, in the poor time at my command, have fingered it to so little purpose.
