1 Miss Bart received this with increasing amusement.
2 Selden had watched her manoeuvres with lazy amusement.
3 She knew she was an object of criticism and amusement to the other work-women.
4 There were moments when Lily found an ironic amusement in this aspect of the case.
5 But these flashes of amusement were but brief reactions from the long disgust of her days.
6 Lily was acutely aware of her own part in this drama of innuendo: she knew the exact quality of the amusement the situation evoked.
7 Selden glanced at her with amusement: it was impossible, even with her lovely eyes imploring him, to take a sentimental view of her case.
8 He had carried his cup to the fireplace, and stood leaning against the chimney-piece and looking down on her with an air of indolent amusement.
