1. Is leisurely an adjective or adverb?
2. Does "go down quietly" mean "spend a day"?
41)What a delicious feeling it must be to get up in the morning with “nothing to do!” To most of us it is a treat that comes very few times after childhood― just a day or two in the year. There is no need to go off on a long tour, to climb mountains, and to sail on rivers. We are
able to sleep as long as we like in the morning, to dress as leisurely as we please and then to go down quietly through the day, having absolutely nothing to do but to please ourselves. It is the very extreme of pleasure to lie down beneath an old oak tree upon a breezy hill, and hear the wind rustling among the leaves.
