"Took it?" He got up, and, with a belated courtesy, pulled forward a chair. But Lydia did not see it. Her eyes were fixed on his face, as if in its changes would lie her destiny. "You mean you found it." "No. I didn't find it. I took it." "You must have found it first." "I looked for it," said Lydia. "Where?" "In Esther's bag." Jeffrey stood staring at her, and Lydia unwinkingly stared at him.
She had herself now, for weeks and weeks, and all unwinkingly, traced the extension of this pious effort; but her perfect success in giving no sign she did herself THAT credit would have been an achievement quite wasted if Mrs.
"I am afraid Uncle Abram is getting all he wants of adventure now," Louise said doubtfully. Cap'n Amazon stared at her unwinkingly for a minute. Then all he said was: "I wonder?" Lawford Tapp did not appear at the store and Louise continued to wonder about it; but she shrank from asking Betty Gallup, who might have been able to inform her why the young man did not come again.
"'This is a beautiful country, said the man, and he gathered a white flower. "'Yes, returned Purity, smiling on him, 'you begin to see it now." Mrs. Evringham paused. Jewel's eyes were fixed on her unwinkingly. "Go on, please, mother," she said. "I think I've told enough," replied Mrs. Evringham. "Oh, but you finish it, mother. You can tell it just beautifully."
"Tell the child that I am going to do him good," Alexis said to the mother, "and that he is to look at my eyes steadily."

For three or four minutes the black eyes looked into his unwinkingly, then the lids closed a little.
There is this hint of impudence in their attitude, half audacity, half knavery, that shows itself a little in the way they stare unwinkingly all day at everything above them at the stately things that tower proudly in the air then just shut up at sunset without a word of explanation or apology. They see everything, but keep their opinions to themselves.
Twice the tall clock in the corner whirred and sharply struck the hour, but throughout the whole long consultation Hiram stood silent, motionless as a stock, his eyes fixed almost unwinkingly upon the three heads grouped close together around the dim, flickering light of the candle and the papers scattered upon the table.
Emily looked at the lamp unwinkingly. "That wick needs trimming," she said. Then, with a sudden recurrence of the untuneful note: "Is he dangerously ill?" "We haven't heard for three days. The doctors were not anxious about him Monday, though they said it was a pretty severe case." A faint, wraith-like change of expression drifted over Emily's beautiful face and was gone in a moment.
His eyes fastened upon this, at first unwinkingly, with a fixed intensity, and later with dropped lids and half-upturned eyeballs. He was quite quiet, and finally seemed asleep, although the line of white between his eyelids made Sylvia shudder. With the disappearance of the instant need for self-control and firmness, she felt an immense fatigue.
Abbott was restlessly pacing the floor, and Bob was staring at him unwinkingly, when the door opened and in came Fran. Abbott frowned heavily, but the wrinkles in his brow could not mar the attractiveness of his handsome young face. He was too fine looking, the chairman reflected uneasily, for his duties.
