Jinks this is the sweet morsel which he has rolled beneath his tongue for days this is the refinement of torture he has mixed for the love-sick O'Brallaghan, who personates the opposing Michael. As the adversaries see their opponents, they roar as they catch sight of their patron saints thus raised aloft derisively, they thunder.
Davlin, read these words: Come down to-morrow without fail. It is most important. "So," muttered Miss Arthur's maid as, flinging away the match, she hurried on her way; "so he must be consulted; he must come down. In the absence of Percy, too. I wonder if he knows, this Percy, that Lucian Davlin at present personates the dutiful brother of his fair lost love."
Abbot, who personates my husband, Phocion, at a certain part of the play where we have to embrace, thought fit to clasp me so energetically in his arms that he threw me down, and fell down himself. I fell seated, with all my draperies in most modest order, which was very fortunate, but certainly I never was more frightened or confused.
Again, in the only piece of humour in the play if that should be called humour which, taken in its relation to the consciousness of the principal characters, is as terrible as anything in the piece the porter ends off his fantastic soliloquy, in which he personates the porter of hell-gate, with the words, "But this place is too cold for hell: I'll devil-porter it no further.

In this manner of language, he personates his soul with the souls of the rest that are saved; and thus to do, is common with the apostles, as will be easily discerned by them that give attendance to reading.
A clever active seaman, dressed up grotesquely in party-coloured rags, adorned with a long beard made of the stuff which sailors call spun-yarn, and armed with a tri-pronged harpoon, personates the God of the Ocean. Another seaman, arrayed in like manner, except that, instead of a beard, he wears a hideous mask, performs the part of the lady.
Celsus, or the Jew whom he personates, uses these words: "I could say many things concerning the affairs of Jesus, and those, too, different from those written by the disciples of Jesus; but I purposely omit them."
Thy eyes were shut, and thy ears sealed to the vision that answered my prayer. "I was indeed deceived. The form thou hast seen was the incarnation of a daemon. The visage and voice which urged me to the sacrifice of my family, were his. Now he personates a human form: then he was invironed with the lustre of heaven. "Clara," he continued, advancing closer to me, "thy death must come.
His highest triumphs have been won in the legitimate branches of his profession, and won by the force of his genius, aided only by the most careful study and an intelligent analysis of the parts assumed by him.
