He had a way of pronouncing "Gluck" which aroused expectation even before one heard a note. From time to time Delsarte gave a concert. He would come on the stage and say that he had a bad throat, but that he would try to give Iphigenia's Dream or something of that sort. His courage would prove to be greater than his strength and he would have to stop.
Up to the present time this family has jogged along at a fairly comfortable pace, only one daughter, the youngest, Mollie, having so far escaped from the traditional female employments of the region as to spend a season in New York, supplementing the grammar school education by a course in elocution, with Delsarte accompaniments.
Many exercises which lead to the freedom of the body are well known in the letter not in the spirit through the so-called "Delsarte system." if they had been followed with a broad appreciation of what they were meant for and what they could lead to, before now students would have realized to a far greater extent what power is possible to the human body.
Of course the Emperor had quite forgotten that such a person as Delsarte had ever existed. This was a perfectly delightful dejeuner, and I shall never forget it.
His writings became the rage in Rome: at feasts he read his essays on the Ideal Life, just as the disciples of Tolstoy often travel by the gorge road, and give banquets in honor of the man who no longer attends one; or princely paid preachers glorify the Man who said to His apostles, "Take neither scrip nor purse." Seneca was a combination of Delsarte and Emerson.
Genevieve Ryan nodded to the dispenser of "Delsarte," a large and florid woman, who, taking her stand under a spreading palm tree, began to declaim "The Portrait" of Owen Meredith, and in the recital of the dead lady's iniquitous conduct the conversation was brought to a close.

Our friends are now so few and far between that it is not difficult to know whom to choose or where to find them. The result was a miscellaneous company, as you will see: Mr. Washburn, Auber, Massenet, Beaumont, and Delsarte. Our family consisted of Mr. and Mrs. Moulton, Henry, Mademoiselle Wissembourg, and myself. Mrs.
"Conscious weakness takes strong attitudes," says Delsarte. The strength of Hancock's signature was an affectation quite in keeping with his habit of riding about Boston in a coach-and-six, with outriders in uniform, and servants in livery.
Delsarte asked me many questions about my music: whether I had had the heart to sing pendant ce debacle. I said, "Debacle or no debacle, I could never help singing."
