'Of course I should do nothing in such haste as to inconvenience Mr.
Schumann had no dramatic instinct, and no comprehension for opera; in Genoveva as, in fact, in his so-called dramatic cantatas he failed utterly: he went straight through the words, setting them to music pur et simple, taking no thought for dramatic propriety. The score of Tannhäuser simply puzzled him; he saw in it only the music pur et simple, considered as which it was, of course, very bad.
The sentence and the abjuration are given at full length in the "Life of Galileo," in the "Library of Useful Knowledge." "It is said," continues the biographer, "that Galileo, as he rose from his knees, stamped on the ground, and whispered to one of his friends, 'e pur si muove, it does move though."
It is unlikely that Saracen or even Moorish influences were ever at work so far north as this; but there is an unquestionable tendency in much of the debased decoration of this church to more than suggest a similarity to both.

Then he added almost with austerity: "You'll be so good as to place before me every patch of paint, every sketch and scrap, that this room contains." Nick complied in great good humour.
"Where are you off to now, Owen?" said the boatswain. "That's my business," said the man insolently, and pur- sued his course. The boatswain was about to stop him, but before he could interfere Curtis was standing and looking Owen steadily in the face. "Ah, captain, I've got a word from my mates to say to you," he said, with all the effrontery imaginable. "Say on, then," said the captain coolly.

He loved football and cricket for their bodily excitement, not the fictitious one of a looker on, or reader of papers, and it struck him that Wilfred knew a good deal too much about this more dangerous side of races and athletics. He said so to Angela, and she answered, "Oh, nonsense! Young men are out of it if they don't know the winning horse. Even Pur had to be up to the Derby."
