A hundred miles from our coast she was wrecked, and it was thought that all on board had been lost. A submarine was ordered to the spot " "Do you mean," interrupted St. George, "that you were able to see the wreck at that distance?" "Certainly," said the prince. "Pray forgive me," he added winningly, "if I seem to boast. It is difficult for me to believe that your appliances are so immature.
How winningly and picturesquely in comparison the old architecture of London addresses itself to the eye, St. Paul's Cathedral, for instance, with its vast blotches and stains, as if it had been dipped in some black Lethe of oblivion, and then left to be restored by the rains and the elements!
When I knew him he was totally blind, and his eyes, which are said to have flashed so brightly and boldly on the foe in war, and gazed so winningly into the faces of friends in time of peace, had lost their lustre.
His whole life taught the lesson that the world is well lost whenever the world is wrong; but never, I think, did any life teach this so sweetly, so winningly.
They met in the park, as before, and he talked to her five minutes through the carriage window. 'Was it worth the risk, my poor child? said Caroline, pityingly. Juliana cried: 'Oh! I would give anything to live! A man might have thought that she made no direct answer. 'Don't you think I am patient?

You will be able to pay up old scores even better than I will." He smiled winningly. "Yes," she replied, reproachfully but tenderly at that, a little sorrowfully, "a lot of good money does me.

When she came upon the stage she filled it with the brilliant vitality of her presence. Every movement that she made was winningly characteristic. Her least gesture was eloquence, Her voice, which was soft or silvery, or deep or mellow, according as emotion affected it, used now and then to tremble, and partly to break, with tones that were pathetic beyond description.
"I wrote Mary about having seen a girl that looked like her. She will be very curious to see you. She's coming to visit me some time during the year. So I hope you and I will be friends. But I haven't even told you who I am. My name is Marjorie Dean. Won't you please tell me yours?" She offered her hand winningly, but the strange, self-contained young girl ignored it.
And thus it is that in too many instances affection and passion have taken full possession of the hearts and the lives of our young people before any moral or religious lesson on these all-important subjects has been given to them: any lesson such as John Bunyan so winningly and so beautifully gives here.
