It is all very well for a high-minded philosopher to avoid a pleasure in order to avoid its pain, and to realize that a pleasure of the mind is worth more than a pleasure of the body, but one cannot expect the ordinary pupil the homme moyen sensuel to comprehend this attitude with heartiness sufficient to put it into practice.
Coussemaker wonders whether the musician was unable to find a melody worthy to be sung by the Savior or intentionally made Him speak instead of chant. The same author, in his "Histoire de l'Harmonie au Moyen Age," gives facsimiles of all the pages of the original manuscript of this play.

I passed at once, like Melmoth, from youth to age.
"It depends on how it's done," said Kitty. Ashe declared that Cliffe was just an ordinary person, "l'homme sensuel moyen" with a touch of genius.

Markelov distended his nostrils malignantly. "Do you know Confucius and Titus Livius, your excellency?" The governor turned away. "Il n'y a pas moyen de causer avec cette homme," he said, shrugging his shoulders. "Baron, come here, please." The adjutant went up to him quickly and Paklin seized the opportunity of limping over to Sipiagin. "What are you doing?" he asked in a whisper.
