Three rousing cheers for lithesome grace regained!
"One Third Off"
Irvin S. Cobb
Shapes, too, of divine ideal corresponding to such fair colours: the oval of the forehead; the arched outline of the nose; the spiral curving of the nostrils; the hemisphere expressed in two contiguous bosoms; and the limitless parabola passing downward from her lithesome waist-are all conspicuous proofs that, in the construction of Marion Wade, Nature has employed the most accomplished architects-in her adornment, the most skilful of artists.
"The White Gauntlet"
Mayne Reid
She had tiny little hands and feet, and her healthy, lithesome little figure reminded one of a Florentine statuette of the sixteenth century.
"Virgin Soil"
Ivan S. Turgenev
