But he was singularly considerate of the sensibilities of others, and had his temper under rare command. His powers of forbearance were remarkable.

At last she grew thoroughly vexed, and vented her disgust on the "religionists" who got up camp-meeting excitements for the purpose of turning weak brains like Flossy Shipley's. After that she went to sleep.
The city of Tours talked much of this singular affair; but the criminals were Flemish, and the interest felt in their unhappy fate soon evaporated. In those days wars and seditions furnished endless excitements, and the drama of each day eclipsed that of the night before.
To-morrow night, this new sensation this fresh movement this excitement excelling all former excitements will be called into existence, when she pours out the notes of Casta Diva, and exhibits her astonishing powers her wonderful peculiarities, that seem more of heaven than of earth more of a voice from eternity, than from the lips of a human being.
