The parting crimson glory of the ripening summer sun
The past slowly drifted out of his thought
The pendulous eyelids of old age
The penetrating odors assailed his memory as something unforgettable
The pent-up intolerance of years of repression
The perfume of the mounting sea saturated the night with wild fragrance
The piquancy of the pageant of life [piquancy = tart spiciness]
The pith and sinew of mature manhood
The plenitude of her piquant ways [piquant = engagingly stimulating]
The presage of disaster was in the air
