The little painted face grew serious; then it became veiled. "How much money has he?" "That's what I want to find out!" She squatted ruminatively down on the edge of her divan. It was low and wide and covered with orange-colored silk. "Then you'll have to find Binhart!" was her next announcement. "Maybe!" acknowledged Blake. "I can show you where he is!" "All right," was the unperturbed response.
"Ah, yes," said the lady, unperturbed, "but five minutes is a long time sometimes. Is Leighton a common name?" "Not as common as some," said Lewis. "Why?" "Nothing, only I know some Leightons in Brazil." Lady Derl saw Lewis start, and quickly lay down his fork. She watched in vain through the rest of that dinner for a conversational sensation at his end of the table.
Somehow or other his fine, straight yellow hair retained its backward sweep with no impairment by reason of turnings and tossings; his clear profile continued to keep itself disengaged from any depression in the pillows; his slender hands were laid in quiet symmetry over the wide edge of the down-turned coverlet. A decorous, unperturbed young old-master ... Van Eyck ... Carpaccio....
Dill, "we'd a put him in a tunnel with ten days' rations and walled him up." "They come clost to lynchin' me onct on Sucker Crick in Southern Oregon for tellin' the truth," Uncle Bill said reminiscently, unperturbed. Southern Oregon! Wilbur Dill looked startled. Ah, that was it! He looked sharply at Griswold, but the old man's face was blank.

"That was an excellent supper, Edna. If you'll show me the way to the kitchen I could almost kiss the cook, if she would consider it." Miss Lacey was listening and bridling triumphantly behind a neighboring pillar. "You needn't go so far," rejoined Edna gayly. "Miss Lacey made that dessert." The judge was unperturbed, as he stood, his hands clasped behind him.
When I arose from this act of devotion I was once more calm and unperturbed; and from that moment I date a habit of prayer that has been an inexpressible comfort and support to me ever since.
It would have been unfair to say that there was effrontery in Mr. Drew's gaze; it merely had its way with you and, if you didn't like its way, passed from you unperturbed. With all his rather sickly grace and ambiguous placidity, Mr. Drew was not lacking in character.
'I hear he was promised consideration, he said quickly. 'Then he got it, was the priest's smiling reply. 'He was told that his letter was not for publication. Next morning it appeared in the Osservatore Romano. 'Oh no! impossible! Your facts are incorrect. The Monsignore laughed, in unperturbed good humour.
"I should be ashamed I should feel disgraced I should I don't ask you I don't ask her till I have the means to support her " "If you were very fortunate," continued the general, unmoved by the young fellow's pain, and unperturbed by the fact that he had himself lived upon his wife's means as long as she lived, and then upon his daughter's, "if you went back to Stoller "
