The common argument is that a man who is charged with the poaching of deer in his youth is too bad to write good poetry, therefore Bacon wrote Shakspere. Was Bacon an angel? By the same process of reasoning Burns could not have written the Cotter's Saturday Night. But I deny that Shakspere was profligate, and in making this denial I need not prove the impeccability of Shakspere.
The virtue of a CLARISSA dost thou question? I do not, I dare not question it. My reverence for her will not let me directly question it. But let me, in my turn, ask thee Is not, may not her virtue be founded rather in pride than in principle? Whose daughter is she? And is she not a daughter? If impeccable, how came she by her impeccability?
But the chaplain did not say grace, and the man on my right suddenly turned out to be a perfectly strange general in a state of helpless uneasiness. I have a suspicion that not even the absolute impeccability of my subsequent conduct convinced him that I was not a designing woman. But, although we are discussing men, as all women know, there are really no men at all.
'Oh, Prim, you dear little thing, cried both elder brother and sister, as they thought with a sort of pang of the child's opinion of grown-up impeccability. 'Harry is grown up more, put in Fergus; 'why don't you ask him? 'Because I know, said Primrose, with a pretty shyness, and as they pressed her, she whispered, 'He is going to be a clergyman.
'My dear Wilmet, it is very bad taste in families always to maintain each other's impeccability!
But in the category in which M. Dubois is to be placed that is very little; it is always delightful, but it is not especially complimentary to M. Dubois, to occupy one's self with it. On the other hand, by impeccability is certainly not here meant the mere success of expressing what one has to express the impeccability of Canova and his successors, for example.
The next morning Dale made his customary appearance. He wore a morning coat, a dark tie, and patent-leather boots. "Well," said I, "have you dressed more carefully today?" He looked himself anxiously over and inquired whether there was anything wrong. I assured him of the impeccability of his attire, and commented on its splendour. "Are you going to take Maisie out to lunch?"
She would never in her life be ill; the greatest doctor would keep her, at the worst, the fewest minutes; and it was as if she had asked just with all this practical impeccability for all that was most mortal in her friend. These things, for Milly, inwardly danced their dance; but the vibration produced and the dust kicked up had lasted less than our account of them.
He, however, did her full justice on a point where most men and all women misjudged her: he believed that, through instinct and calculation, she had been materially faithful to her husband; that this large goddess-like physique had all the impeccability of a goddess; that the hysterical dissipation in which she indulged herself was purely mental, and usurped and preoccupied all other emotions.
But when Roger ailed which was very often, for he caught colds easily and had a weak digestion she would send for the doctor at once, and would nurse him with a strained impeccability, concentrating with unnecessary intensity on the minutiæ of his treatment and diet as if she were attempting to exclude from her mind some thought that insisted on presenting itself at these times.
