Even the worst criminals seek to give some specious colour to their villainy; and the condemned felon, who will face death without a tremor, shudders at the cry of execration which greets his appearance at the scaffold.

Napoleon III, the representative of the highest modern civilization, progress, and refinement; Abdul-Aziz, the representative of a people by nature and training filthy, brutish, ignorant, unprogressive, superstitious and a government whose Three Graces are Tyranny, Rapacity, Blood. Here in brilliant Paris, under this majestic Arch of Triumph, the First Century greets the Nineteenth!

The heart's warm welcome, Clara, meets thee; Thy native land, dear lady, greets thee . Christy. Then I'm not ashamed, any way, of that song of mine. Sir W. Of yours? Is it possible that it is yours? Clara. It is indeed. These are the very lines he gave me this morning. Christy. And I humbly thank you, madam or miss, for having got them set to the musics. Clara. I had nothing to do with that.
