At any moment this discovery would have been welcomed with rapture.

We were received with gushing, girlish enthusiasm, by Pansy and Lulu Rutherby, in their rare and expensive toilets, they were both pretty and lively, and we talked and laughed during our first half-hour together, as though we had been old friends all our lives.
Each mistress gives the subject to a book. Delia's real name as we learn from Apuleius was Plania, and we gather from more than one notice in the poems that she was married when Tibullus paid his addresses to her.

Ein feste Burg welled from his great heart like the gushing of the waters from the smitten rock of Horeb to inspirit and refresh God's faint and doubting people as long as the Church is in this earthly wilderness.
