"Oh, Peace," whispered the oldest of the trio, in an awestruck voice, "isn't it a beau ti ful day? I've a notion to call " "Don't you dast!" quickly interposed the first speaker. "You know Gail never'd let us go. Just see how wet everything is!"
He was aware of her attitude; he was aware, further, that it would be their attitude at Wandsworth. They would all treat him like that, as if he were bereaved. They would not lose, nor allow him to lose for an instant, their awestruck sense of it. That was why he dreaded going there, why he had put it off till the last possible moment, which was about three o'clock in the afternoon.
And the slow rustic's formulation of a suggestion or a plan must needs tarry in abeyance as he gazed awestruck at this ghastly apparition, decked in trim finery, mowing and wringing her hands, shown under the hood of the phaeton in the blended light of the moon and the mountaineer's lantern, while his household stood half-clad in the doorway and peered out, mute and affrighted, as at a spectre.
We might, perhaps, have recognized it in the Pieta in St. Peter's. We may safely say, however, that it exists in all his works.

In Alaska perhaps more than any other country it is the heavens that declare the glory of God and the firmament that shows His handiwork, and the awestruck Indian who comes with timid inquiry of the import of such phenomena is rightfully and scientifically answered that the Great Father is setting a sign in the sky that He still rules, that His laws and commandments shall never lose their force, whether in the heavens above or on the earth beneath.
She still was awestruck by her promotion, and looked so small and black and uncertain among her new surroundings on the turbine that if not clever of him it was at least natural that he should address her in a manner familiar to those who have had to do with men when they are being tried.

I feared he was about to speak again and I raised my hand to signify forbiddal but he saw it not, and my inward protest yielded to his fiery purpose. "Aye, you may well look," he cried to the awestruck worshippers. "God knows I had not meant to do this thing or to speak these words.
David was dazzled at her, and awestruck at her beauty and mien, and at his own presumption. Her eye fell on him. She gave a little start, but passed on without a word.
