She had not yet promised to be his, but he did not feel anxious. The quiet of the English home, the sweet, old-fashioned peace of the garden, the shade under the trees, the songs of the old-fashioned home birds, the scent of the old-fashioned home flowers, and the bright eyes and gentle voice of the prettiest little English girl he had ever seen, had a mesmerizing effect upon him.
"I thought I might have got at what I wanted," she told me, "by mesmerizing our reverend friend. He is as weak as a woman; I threw him into hysterics, and had to give it up, and quiet him, or he would have alarmed the house. You look as if you don't believe in mesmerism." "My looks, Mrs. Tenbruggen, exactly express my opinion. Mesmerism is a humbug!" "You amusing old Tory!
Another time they tried to go at yellocution; but they didn't yellocute long till the audience got up and give them a solid good cussing, and made them skip out. They tackled missionarying, and mesmerizing, and doctoring, and telling fortunes, and a little of everything; but they couldn't seem to have no luck.
In retrospect she explained the holding of her arms in the air by saying, “I thought you wanted me to have them up.” Henrietta B. at one examination kept her arms raised in the position in which they had been put for a minute and then dropped them, saying, “Stop mesmerizing me.” But she then put them up again of her own accord and now presented intense resistance to any motion.
Then she dropped them and said, “Stop mesmerizing me.” But then she put them up again of her own accord, and when she had done this presented intense resistiveness to any movement.

Let me go, Mr. Stanford." "Let you go? Surely not. Come, sit down here beside me, Rose. I have fifty things to say to you." "You have nothing to say to me nothing I wish to hear. Please let me go." "On your dignity again, Rose?" he said, smiling, and mesmerizing her with his dark eyes; "when will you have done wearing your mask?" "My mask!" Rose echoed, flushing; "what do you mean, Mr. Stanford?"
We had heard a great deal of his curing a blacksmith of tic-douloureux by mesmerizing him. The blacksmith, though a big, burly man, had turned out an admirable clairvoyant, and by touching particular bumps in his cranium, the professor could make him sing, dance, and fight all in a breath, or transport him to California, and set him to picking gold.
How strange. Sit down. Neither of us will be going anywhere in the rain." Nawin sat down on the wet bench next to the Laotian who wrote his telephone number out for him once again. Around them both was the mesmerizing sound of rain, now a more steady, less vehement pounding in the muddied inundation that surrounded Patuxay.
They tackled missionarying, and mesmerizing, and doctoring, and telling fortunes, and a little of everything; but they couldn't seem to have no luck.
