He is in marked contrast to the levelling hatred of excellence, the Christian trades-unionism of the model Catholic of the mould of S. Francois de Sales whose maxim of life is "marchons avec la troupe de nos freres et compagnons, doucement, paisiblement, et amiablement." To Milton the people are But a herd confus'd, A miscellaneous rabble, who extol Things vulgar. Paradise Regained, iii. 49.

"I beg your pardon, Father; I know I ought to be more careful in your presence; but but the beastly, hellish scoundrel " "Bah! doucement, mon fils, doucement."

"Ah, ca va tout doucement Paul is well, the good God be praised, but I I perish day by day" At which the entire court-yard was certain to burst into laughing protest. For the whole household of Guillaume le Conquerant was quite sure to be assembled about the great wheels of the pedler's wagon only to look, not to buy, not yet.
I may as well take this opportunity of saying that these two egotists carried out the promise of their respective letters. Mr. Fountain blustered for a year or two, and then showed manifest signs of relenting. Mrs. Bazalgette kept cool, and wrote, in oils, twice a year to Mrs. Dodd: "ET GARDAIT TOUT DOUCEMENT UNE HAINE IRRECONCILIABLE." Lucy had to answer these letters.
His arms were both round her; he was controlling the maddened horse only with the pressure of his knees. "Doucement, doucement." She heard the slow, soft voice indistinctly, for he was pressing her head again closely to him, and she did not know if the words were applied to herself or to the horse.

Leonard's as soon as we possibly can. When did you tell the coachman to come for us?" "At half past ten," was the brother's reply. "Oh! Edward, Edward!" she exclaimed, "And I dare say he will not be punctual. He may keep us here till eleven." "Courage, mes enfants," said their mother, "et parlez plus doucement."
