1 They saw him step into his carriage, and in a minute it was out of sight.
2 I have entered many a shop to avoid your sight, as the carriage drove by.
3 The sight of your dear sister, however, was really dreadful; and, to heighten the matter, I found her alone.
4 He drove through the park very fast, and they were soon out of sight; and nothing more of them was seen till their return, which did not happen till after the return of all the rest.

6 At first sight, his address is certainly not striking; and his person can hardly be called handsome, till the expression of his eyes, which are uncommonly good, and the general sweetness of his countenance, is perceived.
