pinken

I jumped into a taxi to Belém Tower just in time to see the 16th-century limestone edifice pinken in the sunrise and sent my son the photo.

The sky to the west had started to pinken and everything seems better when morning has arrived.

Then, in remorseful generosity, though heaven knows her coming was no act of mine, I made her a little gift, and as she was slipping the bill inside her well-mended glove, her eye caught the number on its corner, and, she must have been very poor, her tormented and tormenting heart gave a plunge and sent a rush of blood into her face that made her very eyeballs pinken; and then again the clutching fingers, the flaring nostrils, the gasping for air, the pleading look, the frightened eyes!

It did finally, and with it, when the approaching sun began to pinken the eastern sky, sleep for my tormented sister.

Out on the water could be seen the little "pinken"—the fishing boats, their sails red and taut or white and wing-like, speeding before the wind.
