Pantaleone at Venice, representing the life, martyrdom, and apotheosis of that saint. But the style of the decadence makes itself less felt in the work of the Calabrese than in that of the Venetian. In recompense of this gigantic work, the artist had the honor, like Carravaggio, to be made a Knight of the Order.
Napoleon's part was, of course, performed by Pantaleone, and very faithfully he performed it: he folded his arms across his chest, pulled a cocked hat over his eyes, and spoke very gruffly and sternly, in French and heavens! what French!
About forty people on board, and eleven Negro Slaves, but little in the way of European goods save some Iron and Cloth. They had a passenger of note on board, one Don Pantaleone and Something as long as my Arm, who was going to be Governor of Baldivia, and said he had been taken not long since in the North Sea by Jamaica Cruisers.
'I know your estate now ... as well as you do. 'Well ... I imagine ... I could not take less than five hundred roubles for each, Sanin articulated with difficulty. O Pantaleone, Pantaleone, where were you! This was when you ought to have cried again, 'Barbari! Maria Nikolaevna turned her eyes upwards as though she were calculating. 'Well? she said at last.
To tell the truth, his arguments were somewhat feeble; he kept expatiating for the most part on the necessity, before all things, of possessing 'un certo estro d'inspirazione' a certain force of inspiration! Frau Lenore remarked to him that he had, to be sure, possessed such an 'estro' and yet ... 'I had enemies, Pantaleone observed gloomily.

'One ... one ... one! he heard the tapping too distinctly; he opened his eyes, raised his head ... some one was knocking at his door.
I can't do otherwise it would mean disgracing myself for ever. 'H'm. If I don't consent to be your second you will find some one else. 'Yes ... undoubtedly. Pantaleone looked down. 'But allow me to ask you, Signor de Tsanin, will not your duel throw a slur on the reputation of a certain lady? 'I don't suppose so; but in any case, there's no help for it.
Pantaleone, who had already succeeded in obliterating himself behind a bush, so as not to see the offending officer at all, at first made out nothing at all of Herr von Richter's speech, especially, as it had been delivered through the nose, but all of a sudden he started, stepped hurriedly forward, and convulsively thumping at his chest, in a hoarse voice wailed out in his mixed jargon: 'A la la la ... Che bestialita!
Pantaleone, a much esteemed Roman physician, and member of the Chamber, who did what he could to save him, but in vain; he was a great loss to the Liberal cause.
"The fate of the Signore Pantaleone Serrani has never been truly known; though there is a dark rumor that he died in a brawl in our own Switzerland. That he is dead, there is no cause to doubt." "And his person, noble Freiherr a description of his person is now only wanting to throw the light of a noon-day sun, on what has so long been night!"
