For this is a case of ectopia cordis, my boy, displacement of the heart; and it isn't every day you get a chance to overhaul such an interesting malformation. And so I managed to do my duty and satisfy my curiosity at the same time. The torso was slight and deformed; the right arm attenuated, the left full, round, and of perfect symmetry.
So she sat down upon a white velvet mushroom and fell to thinking, while Maya, the Princess, looked at her from the rose where she lay, and the Queen, having pushed her down robe safely out of the way, leaned her head on her hand, and very properly cried as much as six tears. Soon, like a sunbeam, Cordis looked up.
As to the 4th February letter, it had been written "in amaritudine cordis," upon hearing the treasons of York and Stanley, and in accordance with "their custom and liberty used towards all princes, whereby they had long preserved their estate," and in the conviction that the real culprits for all the sins of his Excellency's government were certain "lewd persons who sought to seduce his Lordship, and to cause him to hate the States."
I sha'n't like him," said Madeline. "Poor George! and here we are forgetting all about him this beautiful day!" "What's the new clerk's name?" said Laura, impatiently. "Harrison Cordis." "What?" "Harrison Cordis." "Rather an odd name," said Laura. "I never heard it." "No," said Will; "he comes all the way from Boston." "Is he handsome?" inquired Laura. "I really don't know," replied Will.
To be filled with the spirit of God; this spirit must animate our words and our hearts: Ex abundantia cordis os loquitur. To have great prudence in the choice and arrangement of the things which are necessary either to enlighten the understanding or to bend the will; all that does not tend in this direction is labour lost.
I say this only, that usury is a concessum propter duritiem cordis; for since there must be borrowing and lending, and men are so hard of heart, as they will not lend freely, usury must be permitted.

Besides the Schoolmen, by whom the problems of life were viewed in the refracted light of theology and philosophy, there was another important class in mediaeval times which exercised itself over the same social questions, but visaged them from an entirely different angle.
Doctrine once sown strikes deeply its root, and respect for antiquity influences all men. Still the die is cast, and my trust is in my love of truth, and the candour of cultivated minds." Then he goes on to say: William Harvey: Exercitatio Anatomica de Motu Cordis et Sanguinis in Animalibus, Francofurti, 1628, G. Moreton's facsimile reprint and translation, Canterbury, 1894, p. 48.

What have I done?" she asked, in a tone of anxious deprecation which no other person but Harrison Cordis had ever heard from her lips. "You have done nothing," he answered, passing his arm round her waist in a momentary embrace of reassurance.
Harvey had no appreciation of how the arteries and veins communicated with each other. Galen, you may remember, recognized that there were anastomoses, but Harvey preferred the idea of filtration. The "De Motu Cordis" constitutes a unique piece of work in the history of medicine. Nothing of the same type had appeared before.
