For, be it known in advance, Lee Barton was a super-man and Ida Barton a super-woman or at least they were personalities so designated by the cub book-reviewers, flat-floor men and women, and scholastically emasculated critics, who from across the dreary levels of their living can descry no glorious humans over-topping their horizons.
John's gospel was a free man, but Origen was a superstitious man. He was emasculated mentally as well as bodily through his bibliolatry. He quotes; his predecessor thinks. But the writer throws out these guesses at the probable intentions of early Christian thought in passing. His business here is the definition of a position.
One was large, grumbling, and fierce, who had passed a part of his life in the wilds of Africa; the other, and smaller of the two, was an emasculated beast, born behind the bars, and was as tractable as the animal usually is that has never known freedom. The performance consisted of three parts. The first was of the kind common to menageries.
The example of this prelate, who seems to be invulnerable, animates with courageous emulation not the clergy of lazy and emasculated dignitaries, for they fled at the first approach of danger, but the parish-priests, the vicars and the religious orders; not one deserts his colors, not one puts any bound to his fatigues save with his life.

"Why don't I go back and make love to those girls and let the world and you and everything go hang? Deep breasts and rounded limbs and we poor emasculated devils go tramping by with the blood of youth in us!..." "I'm not quite sure, Remington," said Willersley, looking at me with a deliberately quaint expression over his glasses, "that picturesque scenery is altogether good for your morals."
They are cyphers living under the shadow of a great man. He stood, his feet glued to the spot, his eyes riveted on the heavens. The Geddes report is to be emasculated a little in the Cabinet, and then thrown at the heads of the Electorate. Viscount Grey's suggestion may, in spite of everything, prove the nucleus of solution.
But like the rest of the Federalist organization and ideas, the national foreign policy was emasculated by the expression it received at the hands of the Republicans.
But the Tammany party had a large working majority in both houses, and the changed Sulzer was given no support. The crucial moment came when an emasculated primary law was handed to him for his signature. An effective primary law had been a leading campaign issue, all the parties being pledged to such an enactment.
