In gambling he forgot what tortured him, it stirred his blood, dispelled weariness; the gold was nothing to him. The lion's share of his gains he loaned to broken gamblers, without expectation of return, gave to starving artists, or flung with lavish hand to beggars. So the months in Ferrara glided by, and when the allotted time was over, he took leave of Sebastiano Filippi without regret.
Filippi understands drawing; but otherwise.... Michael Angelo's pupil! Does he still write on his back? Every monk is God's servant, but in how few does the Lord dwell! What have you drawn with Sebastiano?"
"No one that I know of." "No one at all?" Michael made a mental effort which did not escape Wentworth. "I should like very much to see presently if it could be done " "Yes," said Wentworth eagerly. "Of course it can be done, my dear boy. You would like to see?" "Doctor Filippi," said Michael, looking deprecatingly at Wentworth. "He was so good to me. And I am accustomed to seeing him.
The happiness of his life was forfeited, but no one should obtain the right to call him faithless to his word, or a scoundrel. In Florence he heard Sebastiano Filippi who had been a pupil of Michael Angelo-praised as a good drawer; so he sought him in Ferrara and found him ready to teach him what he still lacked. But the works of the new master did not please him.

Throwing his massive head back against the purple velvet lining, he adjusted his steel-rimmed spectacles, joined his hands, and built a pyramid with his fingers; while he scrutinized her as coldly, as searchingly as Swammerdam or Leeuwenhoek might have inspected some new and as yet unclassified animalculum, or as Filippi or Pasteur studied the causes of "Pébrine." "What do you think of New York?"

Dichelaspis Darwinii was found by Filippi in the branchial cavity of Palinurus vulgaris, and I have met with another species of the same genus in the branchial cavity of Lupea diacantha. The same thing may have taken place in primitive times.
"You have sent Doctor Filippi a very handsome present," he said coldly. "I chose it for you, a silver salver. I went up to London on purpose at your wish a week ago." "Y-yes." "And I don't think he would care to come here. No doubt he has his own friends. You must remember a man like that is poor. It would be putting him to expense."
