Compared with them, the Energon was as the sword of the arch-angel Michael, and they the forerunners of the hosts of hell. But the flashing of the sword, the good people of San Francisco, gathered on her hills, never saw. Mysterious, invisible, it cleaved the air and smote the mightiest blows of combat the world had ever witnessed. The good people of San Francisco saw little and understood less.
Just now, too, when I'm trying so hard to be trim and elegant, like your Mr. Henderson. 'But you do like him, don't you? said Cynthia, pleadingly. 'He does so like you. 'Of course. We are all angels just now, and you are an arch-angel. I hope he'll wear as well as Roger. Cynthia looked grave. 'That was a very silly affair, she said. 'We were two as unsuitable people
It was a miserable time for him, but, like a much enduring magician awaiting the moment of power, he kept eying the bottle, and gathering comfort. Grizzie eyed him from behind, almost as he eyed the bottle. She eyed him as she might the devil caught in the toils of the arch-angel; and if she did not bring against him a railing accusation, it was more from cunning than politeness.

Persis Dale earned her living as a dressmaker and pieced out her income by acting as a nurse in the dull seasons, but her real occupation in life was attending to other people's business. She had a divine meddlesomeness. She was inquisitive after the fashion of a sympathetic arch-angel.
He leaned his head upon his hands and wept, while the editor shifted uneasily in his chair and strove in vain to think of something appropriate to say. During his reportorial career he had interviewed Satan and the arch-angel Gabriel. He had even inserted the journalistic pump into Gov. Culberson and Dr. Cranfill without being overwhelmed by their transcendent greatness; but this was different.
There may be some who have learned to love all the people of their own planet, but have not yet learned to look with patience upon those of Saturn or Mercury; while others there must be, who, wherever there is a creature of God's making, love each in its capacity for love from the arch-angel before God's throne, to the creeping thing he may be compelled to destroy from the man of this earth to the man of some system of worlds which no human telescope has yet brought within the ken of heaven-poring sage.

"But did no one take care of him, or ever try to find out about him?" questioned Michael wistfully. "Foind out, is it? Whist!
He speaks of having had to abandon "old and long cherished ideas, which constituted the charm to me of the theoretical part of the science in my earlier day, when I believed with Pascal in the theory, as Hallam terms it, of 'the arch-angel ruined." See the same sentiment in the letter to Darwin, March 11, 1863, page 363:
