He it was who could whistle the most engagingly through his front teeth; and he it was, when sad dogs of boys of the world were met behind the barn, who could blow the smoke of the fragrant grapevine through his nose, and swallow the same without alarm to himself or to his admirers. To be with him was in itself a soulful wickedness, a delicious and elevating lesson in corruption.
Inglesant is a mere courtly mirror, the prey of his moods and his surroundings, in which beautiful tones of religious feeling are engagingly reflected.
"Do your division watch Versailles?" "Without ceasing." "This is the Admiral." "The great Admiral? Of the Galley?" "Certainly." "I salute you, Chief," he said, raising a ragged arm. "Have some brandy, Green Cap," the Admiral returned, rapping loudly for drink, which was brought. "We want," said Madame engagingly, "to find a hog called Répentigny at Versailles."
"I never rode him but once myself, but I worked right with a Lazy 6 rep that had him in his string, down at the U up-and-down, two years ago. I know the hoss, all right; but I did lie when I told Happy I knowed him from a colt. I spread it on a little bit thick, there." He smiled engagingly down at Chip. "And he's a bad one, is he?"
"We won from Erskine by 17 to 6 last week, and we're feeling rather stuck up over it." "Wait till next year," said Neil to himself, "and you'll get over it." "And that," continued the coach, "brings me to the object of my call tonight. Frankly, we want you two fellows at Robinson College, and I'm here to see if we can't have you." He paused and smiled engagingly at the boys.
Damaris watched fascinated, in a way troubled, by her extreme prettiness. Every point, every detail was so engagingly complete. "You are like Sir Charles still; but I see something which is not him the personal equation, I suppose, developing in you, the element which is individual, exclusively your own and yourself. I should enjoy exploring that."
Separated from the professional recreations that beckon so engagingly in cities and the larger towns, adults and children alike develop resources within themselves. They learn that they can be just as contented with homely enjoyments as they ever were when they sat passively and were amused by some one who made it his profession.
Again, there was a most interesting and youthful and pretty, if severe, example of the Wellesley-Mt. Holyoke-Bryn Mawr school of literary art and criticism, a most engagingly interesting intellectual maiden, who functioned as assistant editor and reader in an adjoining room, along with the art-director, the makeup editor and an office boy.
The world he sets before us so engagingly has its care for purity, its cleanly preferences, in what one is to see in the outsides of things and there is something, a sign, a memento, at the least, of what makes life really valuable, even in that. There, is my simple notion, wholly womanly perhaps, but which I may hold by, of the purpose of the arts. August 1717. And yet!
He sat up to slay a wasp on the window-pane, flicked the corpse in Mordaunt's direction with airy adroitness, and lay down again. "Are you in a wax over anything?" he inquired, with a yawn. Mordaunt turned quietly round. "Get up!" he said. Noel laughed up at him engagingly. "You can't kick me so easily lying down, can you? But what do you want to kick me for? I'm quite harmless."
