Haunte laughed loudly. "Sullenbode." "You mean it will end in my seeking Sullenbode?" "But what will come of it, Maskull? What will she give you? Sweet, fainting, white-armed, feminine voluptuousness?" Maskull coolly drank another cup. "And why should she give all that to a passerby?" "Well, as a matter of fact, she hasn't it to give.
And white-armed Arete bade her handmaids set out bedsteads beneath the gallery, and cast fair purple blankets over them, and spread coverlets above, and thereon lay thick mantles to be a clothing over all. So they went from the hall with torch in hand.
Though thou shouldest wander till thou come even thither, yet reck I not of thy vexation, seeing there is no thing more unabashed than thou." So said he, but white-armed Hera spake him no word. And the sun's bright light dropped into Ocean, drawing black night across Earth the grain-giver.
Withdrawing her fingers from the water and clasping her hands loosely around her knees, she began to recite idly: "Dian white-armed has given me this cool shrine, Deep in the bosom of a wood of pine; The silver sparkling showers That hive me in, the flowers That prink my fountain's brim, are hers and mine; And when the days are mild and fair, And grass is springing, buds are blowing, Sweet it is, 'mid waters flowing, Here to sit and know no care, 'Mid the waters flowing, flowing, flowing, Combing my yellow, yellow hair."
Yet again in the after time the bitter anguish of those daughters robbed Kadmos of a part of bliss: howbeit the Father Zeus came to white-armed Thyone's longed-for couch.

But he found not white-armed Andromache in the halls; she with her boy and fair-robed handmaiden had taken her stand upon the tower, weeping and wailing. And when Hector found not his noble wife within, he came and stood upon the threshold and spake amid the serving women: "Come tell me now true, my serving women. Whither went white-armed Andromache forth from the hall?
Here, for instance, in a certain latitude plainly marked on the margin, is that calm sweet land of the Phaeacians where reigns Alcinoüs the great-souled king, and the white-armed Nausicaä sings after her bath on the river's brink: Without the palace court and near the gate A spacious garden of four acres lay; A hedge inclosed it round, and lofty trees Flourished in generous growth within the pear And the pomegranate, and the apple tree With its fair fruitage, and the luscious fig, And olive always green.
