The mother-sense in her yearned over him, lying there straight and still, with closed eyes that had never seen love; and, womanlike, she pitied the accomplished loneliness that yet seemed to her the most beautiful thing in the world.
"I'd find my mother, then," breathed Bobbie. "And you'd see a big high tree, with a robin making his nest in it!... Have y' ever seen that?" Jinnie was becoming almost aggressive, for, womanlike, with a point to make, each argument was driven home with more power. "No," Bobbie admitted, and his voice held a certain tragic little note.
"How do you know she didn't?" she demanded, womanlike. Then, before she was quite aware of it, they were in a deep and earnest discussion of Mrs. Garrison, and her not very complimentary views. "And how do you feel about this confounded prospect, Dorothy?
He has seen his own grandfather with his cheeks rouged, his eyelids stained with antimony, living a womanlike life, shut up from all his subjects in the recesses of a vast seraglio. He calls together the mountain rulers; makes friends with Tigranes, an Armenian prince, a vassal of the Mede, who has his wrongs likewise to avenge.
Womanlike, my eyes were everywhere, and I presently spied out an empty bottle, labelled "Worcestershire Sauce." "Dear me, Salter," I cried, "I had no idea you were so grand as to have sauces up here: why we hardly ever use them."
Of course, Marjorie Moore's peculiar actions could not refer to them. But to save her life Bab could not find any one else nearby. Womanlike, Barbara's curiosity was aroused.

"Tell the men to send a committee up here with their needs listed," Jacobs said hastily, "or better, I'll go out there myself the day after tomorrow. I want to see what kind of a claim Carey has preempted. Good-by, now, good-by." He hurried Virginia to her horse and watched her ride away.
It conveyed nothing to her. Womanlike, she went back to her first question. "What is she like?" Paul hesitated. "Tall, I suppose?" suggested the stunted woman at his side. "Yes." "And graceful?" "Yes." "Has she pretty hair?" asked Catrina. "I think so yes." "You are not observant," said the girl in a singularly even and emotionless voice. "Perhaps you never noticed."
The passing junks, gleaming white against the background of dark foliage, were silently and dexterously maneuvered by small yellow men, stark naked, with long hair piled up in womanlike fashion on their heads. Gradually, as we advanced further up the green channel, the perfumes became more penetrating, and the monotonous chirp of the cicalas swelled out like an orchestral crescendo.
