I have done nothing to be ashamed of." The telling of it sapped at her much boasted courage, and left her whiter than the white wall-paper; Dick could see that she had some ado to keep back her tears. Aunt Janet seemed to have been paralysed; she stayed where she was, stiff, stricken, and Dick, glancing at her, thought he had never seen such anguish and terror combined on a human face.
But, compared with Sir Montague Hockin, I am whiter than yonder shearling on his way to the river for his evening drink." I gazed at his face, and could well believe it. There was nothing suggestive of falsehood or fraud, and but for the wildness of the eyes and flashes of cold ferocity, it might have been called a handsome face.
"Also, she authorizes me to assure you that nothing can be done at present regarding the business on which you come." "She refuses to see us," said he, slowly, his face whiter than ever.

Her face was even whiter and more weary than it had looked in the morning, and she had been weeping, I saw, for her long lashes were still wet; but she summoned up a smile for me, that brave smile, that was, in a way, sadder and more moving than tears. "You have heard that my mother is dead?" she asked, in a low voice. "She died in my arms half an hour after we got in; and I am so glad, so glad.
Her face was whiter than usual from anxiety and fatigue, yet Donald McClain liked her appearance.

It was remarked that his face was fearfully worn, and that it looked the whiter for the white wig above it and the black gown beneath. His large eyes flamed as with fire.

Experience will tell, and he'd experienced a heap of the other side. "And now, what do you think of Aleck?
As month followed month, though his strength increased upon him under much labour, and though his cheeks were tanned by sunshine and weather, the broad forehead grew whiter under his cap, and more thoughtful, and his eyes were saddened and his features more spiritual; also, while he longed daily to draw his sword and strike great blows at unbelievers for faith's sake and to the honouring of the Holy Cross, the rough fighting instinct of his people, that craved to see blood for its redness and to take the world for love of holding it, no longer awoke suddenly in him, like hunger or thirst, at the wayward call of opportunity.
