Everything was in a ferment. Everybody about Manor Cross seemed to think that the world was coming to an end.

We may still further increase this ratio by making our estimation as soon as possible after the impregnation, or the addition of the ferment.

A series of anti-Romish and anti-Royal sermons and pamphlets, followed as a rule by a series of recantations, kept men's minds in a ferment.
