The prevailing excitement had made bright her eye and flushed her cheeks rosily-- too rosily, perhaps.
The Golden Road by Montgomery, Lucy Maud View in context
I dashed at the place in which I had left her lying and over which (for the small silk counterpane and the sheets were disarranged) the white curtains had been deceivingly pulled forward; then my step, to my unutterable relief, produced an answering sound: I perceived an agitation of the window blind, and the child, ducking down, emerged rosily from the other side of it.

The sky was bright and cloudless overhead, and the tops of the trees shone rosily in the sun.
