They are thoroughly good people, but I was afraid afterwards that there had been a good deal of noisiness among the young folks at Christmas. Hubert Delrio was there, and I fancy there was some nonsense going on." "Ah, the Delrios!

She still resented the treatment of Hubert Delrio, and she was devoted to her study of nursing at the Dearport Sisterhood; but Magdalen thought it right to take Thekla, and give her the advantages of improvement in languages, and the sight of fine scenery. And certainly Rocca Marina was a wonderful place for marriages.
When Lord Evandale reluctantly brought himself to communicate these doubts to the chaplain, in order to obtain his opinion, he could only obtain a long lecture on demonology, in which, after quoting Delrio and Burthoog and De L'Ancre on the subject of apparitions, together with sundry civilians and common lawyers on the nature of testimony, the learned gentleman expressed his definite and determined opinion to be, either that there had been an actual apparition of the deceased Henry Morton's spirit, the possibility of which he was, as a divine and a philosopher, neither fully prepared to admit or to deny; or else that the said Henry Morton, being still in rerum natura, had appeared in his proper person that morning; or, finally, that some strong deceptio visus, or striking similitude of person, had deceived the eyes of Miss Bellenden and of Thomas Halliday.

Sisters uniformly object to a little civility to a pretty girl," carelessly answered Wilfred. "Nonsense!" returned Mysie, hotly. "We don't care! only it is not fair on Mr. Delrio." "The painter cad! A very good thing too! The sacrifice ought to be prevented. Is not that the general sentiment?"

The Jesuit Delrio, in his book on Magic and Sorcery, relates a still more extraordinary story of him.
