Her splendid chestnut hair was uncovered, the short crisp curls about her forehead dancing in the morning air.

Her large, bright; brown eyes were dancing, too, with delight at having her brother home again.
She shook hands with Mr.Hammond more graciously than last night; but still with a carelessness which was not complimentary, looking at him absently, as if she hardly knew that he was there, and hugging Angelina all the time.
Hammond told his friend about his ramble over the hills, yonder, up above that homely bench called 'Rest, and be Thankful,' on the crest of Loughrigg Fell.

He was beginning to learn the names of the hills already.

Yonder darkling brow, rugged, gloomy looking, was Nab Scar; yonder green slope of sunny pasture, stretching wide its two arms as if to enfold the valley, was Fairfield; and here, close on the left, as he faced the lake, were Silver Howe and Helm Crag, with that stony excrescence on the summit of the latter known as the 'Lion and the Lamb.' Lady Maulevrier's house stood within a circle of mountain peaks and long fells, which walled in the deep, placid, fertile valley.
'If you are not too tired to see the gardens, we might show them to you before breakfast,' said Maulevrier.

'We have three-quarters of an hour to the good.' 'Half an hour for a stroll, and a quarter to make myself presentable after my long walk,' said Hammond, who did not wish to face the dowager and Lady Lesbia in disordered apparel.
