"Well, I think it would be safe to act on that supposition. Miss Clementina I think she wants to see you." "I'm going to her directly." Hinkle paused, rather daunted. "She wants me to go for the doctor." "She's always wanting the docta." Clementina lifted her eyes and looked very coldly at him. "If I were you I'd go up right away," he said, boldly.
She was not insensible to the claims which her husband's disorders had upon science, and she liked to end the tale of her own sufferings with some such appeal as: "I wish you could do something for Mr. Landa, too, docta."
I who, for my part, understand but one of them, can only say this, according to my poor talent, that I do not believe the Muses themselves could ever go beyond the Roman: "Tale facit carmen docta testudine, quale Cynthius impositis temperat articulis:"
Gratian, Dist., 23, c. 29 Friedberg, i, p. 86: Mulier, quamvis docta et sancta, viros in conventu docere non praesumat. Id., Causa, 15, Quaest. 3 Friedberg, i, p. 750.

In his singular treatise De Doctâ Ignorantiâ, one of the most notable literary monuments of the early Renaissance, the following passage occurs: "To a spectator on the surface of the sun, the splendour which appears to us would be invisible, since it contains, as it were, an earth for its central mass, with a circumferential envelope of light and heat, and between the two an atmosphere of water and clouds and translucent air."

He asked Mrs. Lander, with real feeling, how she was; as for Miss Clementina, he need not ask. "Oh, indeed, the docta thinks she wants a little lookin' after, too," said Mrs. Lander. "Well, about as much as you do, Mrs. Lander," Hinkle allowed, tolerantly. "I don't know how it affects you, ma'am, such a meeting of friends in these strange waters, but it's building me right up.
