In his nice neutral unexaggerated way he told her that her happiness could never be anything but a joy to him; and after that, when they were seated side by side upon the cane davenport he asked about her plans; when they were going to be married, where they meant to live, and so on. "Why, we'll be married, I suppose," she said, "at the end of the customary six weeks' engagement.
She had a brilliant complexion, a perfect profile; her smile, though perhaps a little mechanical, was the last expression of immutable sweetness, of impeccable self-control; her voice never slipped from the just note of unexaggerated suavity.

But being a minister is but an incident, so to speak. The important thing is not that he is a minister, but that he is himself!

And he said this in serious and unexaggerated earnest.

There they are, unexaggerated, in their literality, precisely as I conceived them at the time they happened.
