Very touching is the sketch of the Ossoli group, remaining on board after nearly all the passengers and crew had perished or escaped to land, which was distant only a few hundred yards the infant crying passionately, shivering in the wet, till soothed and lullabied to sleep by his mother, a calm expectant of death; and Ossoli tranquillising by counsel and prayer their affrighted handmaid from Italy; all exchanging kindly partings, and sending messages home, if any should survive to be their bearer.
"Yes Major" I says, "though he is as popular with the Lodgers as you are yourself and though he is to you and me what only you and me know, still it is in the course of things and Life is made of partings and we must part with our Pet."
By this time one of the ships, the St Jago, had been lost, and it was with only four of his vessels the Trinidad, the Victoria, the Concepcion. and the St. Antonio that, Magelhaens began his passage.

Such gift of appreciation depends, as I said, on the habitual apprehension of men's life as a whole its organic wholeness, as extending even to the least things in it of its outward manner in connection with its inward temper; and it involves a fine perception of the congruities, the musical accordance between humanity and its environment of custom, society, personal intercourse; as if all this, with its meetings, partings, ceremonies, gesture, tones of speech, were some delicate instrument on which an expert performer is playing.

We are, moreover, severed as yet by death from all congenial minds among past generations, and from those who are yet to come.
