СКАЧАТЬ thousand evanescent memories of happy days [evanescent = vanishing like vapor]

      A thousand unutterable fears bore irresistible despotism over her thoughts

      A time of disillusion followed

      A tiny stream meandering amiably

      A tone of arduous admiration

      A torn and tumultuous sky

      A total impression ineffable and indescribable

      A tragic futility

      A treacherous throb of her voice

      A true similitude of what befalls many men and women

      A tumult of vehement feeling

      A tumultuous rush of sensations

      A twinge of embarrassment

      A vague and wistful melancholy

      A vast sweet silence crept through the trees

      A veritable spring-cleaning of the soul

      A very practised and somewhat fastidious critic

      A violent and mendacious tongue [mendacious = false; untrue]

      A vivid and arresting presentation

      A waking dream overshadowed her

      A weird world of morbid horrors

      A well-bred mixture of boldness and courtesy

      A wild vivacity was in her face and manner

      A wile of the devil's [wile = trick intended to deceive or ensnare]

      A wind strayed through the gardens

      A withering sensation of ineffable boredom

      A wordless farewell

      Absolutely vulgarized by too perpetual a parroting

      Absorbed in a stream of thoughts and reminiscences

      Absorbed in the scent and murmur of the night

      Accidents which perpetually deflect our vagrant attention

      Across the gulf of years

      Administering a little deft though veiled castigation

      Affected an ironic incredulity

      Affecting a tone of gayety

      After a first moment of reluctance

      After an eternity of resolutions, doubts, and indecisions

      Aghast at his own helplessness

      Agitated and enthralled by day-dreams

      Agitated with violent and contending emotions

      Alien paths and irrelevant junketings

      All embrowned and mossed with age

      All her gift of serene immobility brought into play

      All hope of discreet reticence was ripped to shreds

      All the lesser lights paled into insignificance

      All the magic of youth and joy of life was there

      All the place is peopled with sweet airs

      All the sky was mother-of-pearl and tender

      All the unknown of the night and of the universe was pressing upon him

      All the world was flooded with a soft golden light

      All was a vague jumble of chaotic impressions

      All was incomprehensible

      All was instinctive and spontaneous

      Aloof from the motley throng

      Ambition shivered into fragments

      Amid distress and humiliation

      Amid the direful calamities of the time

      An acute note of distress in her voice

      An agreeably grave vacuity

      An air half quizzical and half deferential

      An air of affected civility

      An air of being meticulously explicit

      An air of inimitable, scrutinizing, superb impertinence

      An air of stern, deep, and irredeemable gloom hung over and pervaded all

      An air of uncanny familiarity

      An air which was distinctly critical

      An almost pathetic appearance of ephemeral fragility [ephemeral = markedly short-lived]

      An almost riotous prodigality of energy

      An answering glow of gratitude

      An antagonist worth her steel

      An artful stroke of policy

      An assumption of hostile intent

      An assurance of good-nature that forestalled hostility

      An atmosphere of extraordinary languor [languor = dreamy, lazy mood ]

      An atmosphere thick with flattery and toadyism

      An attack of peculiar virulence and malevolence

      An audacious challenge of ridicule

      An avidity that bespoke at once the restlessness, [avidity = eagerness] and the genius of her mind

      An awe crept over me

      An eager and thirsty ear

      An easy prey to the powers of folly

      An effusive air of welcome

      An equal degree of well-bred worldly cynicism

      An erect, martial, majestic, and imposing personage

      An eternity of silence oppressed him

      An expression of mildly humorous surprise

      An expression of rare and inexplicable personal energy

      An exquisite perception of things beautiful and rare

      An iciness, a sinking, a sickening of the heart

      An ignoring eye

      An impenetrable screen of foliage

      An impersonal and slightly ironic interest
