This, therefore, is addressed to the mass of aspiring individuals brought to Paris by all sorts of vehicles, whether moral or material, and who rush upon the city one fine morning with the hydrophobic purpose of overturning everybody's reputation, and of building themselves a pedestal with the ruins they are to make, until disenchantment follows.
A bite from a mad cat ought to be treated precisely in the same manner-namely, with the lunar-caustic as for a mad dog. Hydrophobia was by our forefathers graphically called water-fright: it was well named, for the horror of swallowing water is, by an hydrophobic patient, most intense, and is the leading symptom of this fell and incurable disease.
They refused, indeed, to the Munster magistrates in 1803, and subsequently, the power of summary convictions which they possessed in '98; but they sent special Commissions of their own into the suspected counties, who sentenced to death with as little remorse as if they had been so many hydrophobic dogs.
After treatment with a new serum the patient was relieved of the hydrophobic symptoms, but to my horror this mild-mannered, humane man seems possessed at times of all the characteristics of the brutal anthropoid cunning, thievery, brutality. I do not know what may come of this. I hesitate to put even these words on to paper.
He is not mad just part of the time, like one's relatives by marriage and not mad most of the time, like the old-fashioned railroad ticket agent but mad all the time incurably, enthusiastically and unanimously mad!

How long it lasted Pierce Phillips never knew; the experience was too terrific to be long lived. It was a nightmare, a hideous phantasmagoria of frightful sensations, a dissolving stereopticon of bleak, scudding walls, of hydrophobic boulders frothing madly as the flood crashed over them, of treacherous whirlpools, and of pursuing breakers that reached forth licking tongues of destruction.

Cobb THE Hydrophobic Skunk resides at the extreme bottom of the Grand Cañon and, next to a Southern Republican who never asked for a Federal office, is the rarest of living creatures. He is so rare that nobody ever saw him that is, nobody except a native.
In that, one can almost feel the kisses; and, in this, one can almost hear the gnashing of the teeth. 'Never! exclaims the duke to his son Torrismond: There lies no grain of sand between My loved and my detested! Wing thee hence, Or thou dost stand to-morrow on a cobweb Spun o'er the well of clotted Acheron, Whose hydrophobic entrails stream with fire!
They absorb the sun's rays like pigeons upon the housetops, or shiver naked in suburban chambers that they may recover the barbaric tang. They walk through rivers fully clothed, and shake their vesture as a dog his coat; or are hydrophobic for their skins, fearing to wash lest they disturb essential oils.
