placidly

Of course the Lady Regent of the Vale was standing placidly beside the open Moon Door, the wind rustling her robes.

She placidly tells people she is dreaming until her frantic father finds her again and loses his temper.

Gun smoke lay in placidly moving layers of gray before the light beams.

"I wonder where we shall all be six years from now," said Constance, placidly eating her ice.

But her flow of small talk, the conversational stop-gap of the woman accustomed to social amenities, went on placidly.

The hired man went howling through the woods, and she returned to the house, smiling placidly.

Then she glanced up, and caught sight of where I lay, placidly reposing on the mantel-piece with my eyes turned up to the ceiling.
