inartificial

Of Emily, who died in 1848 at the age of 30 after publishing her sole novel “Wuthering Heights,” Charlotte wrote, “In Emily’s nature the extremes of vigour and simplicity seemed to meet. Under an unsophisticated culture, inartificial tastes, and an unpretending outside, lay a secret power and fire that might have informed the brain and kindled the veins of a hero; but she had no worldly wisdom; her powers were unadapted to the practical business of life … .”

Yet when Wilson arrived at the White House, in 1913, he tried to improvise the “straightforward, inartificial party government” he had championed.

He had been so long palled with the attentions of managing mothers and designing daughters; had seen so much of female manoeuvring, and had so easily seen through it, that the natural and inartificial loveliness of Charlotte touched his senses with a freshness of delicacy that to him was as captivating as it was novel.

Inartificial, in-�rt-i-fish′yal, adj. not done by art: simple.—adv.

He seems to find a welcome relief in their inartificial ways from his own weird and sombre fancies.
