It might be remarked here that Beethoven, too, aroused a wondering and worshipping world without the aid of saxophone or ophicleide. But it is needless cruelty to pick at Madame Sand's criticisms.
I have a cataclysm of charlotte-russe in my stomach. Just listen: 'A cette complaisance! Marillac leaned toward his friend and roared in his ear the note supposed to be the "G" in question. "Like an ophicleide," said Gerfaut, who could not help laughing at the importance the artist attached to his display of talent. "In that case I shall risk my great run at the end of the first solo.
The man uncovered his mouth and in a voice like the sound of an ophicleide, answered: "Mina nosa." "Your nose!" "Aha. T'ought I bring 'im, butta no find." "Brought your nose in your pocket!" "Dunno may be losta. Fella fighta me; cut offa da nose." The surgeon assured him that the severed nose would have been useless. "But I wanta da nose!" exclaimed the man, in despair.

She was amused to transports at the station, on hearing Mr. Barmby, in a voice all ophicleide, remark: 'No, I carry no instrument.

Hucks sat in his counting-house, counting out his money or so much of it as he had collected from his tenantry on his Saturday rounds. It amounted to 12 pounds 2 shillings and 9 pence in cash; but to this must be added a caged bullfinch, a pair of dumb-bells, a down mattress and an ophicleide.
