There was Honey, with her inscrutable half smile and her veiled eyes, condescending to graciousness and quite plainly assuming a proprietary air toward Bud, whom she put through whatever musical paces pleased her fancy.

Bowne once found a man who was honest and also knew furs, but alas! he had a passion for drink, and no prophet could foretell his ``periodic,'' until after it occurred.英文原著 · 《John Jacob Astor》
Norman beamed appreciation of a compliment so flattering. But he went back to business. "As I was saying, you can do what you want to do. You wish me to show you how.

The great quantity of honey that is gathered, and a prodigious number of cows that is kept here, have often made me call Abyssinia a land of honey and butter.英文原著 · 《A Voyage to Abyssinia》

Oh, sir, have I forestall'd your honest market? Found your close walks? You stand amazed now, do you? I'faith (I am glad) I have smoked you yet at last; What's your jewel, trow?
