"I thank you warmly. I will entreat my mother most urgently...." "Do so," interrupted Paula. "Have you ever seen Pulcheria, the daughter of my worthy host?" "Yes. A singularly lovable creature!" "She will soon take Mary into her faithful heart " "And our poor little girl needs a friend, now that Susannah has forbidden her daughter to visit at our house."
And again words ran high between the friends; Pulcheria, however, put an end to the discussion this time, by exclaiming enthusiastically: "Baste is the best and most good-natured soul in the whole house!" "Because she looks into her own heart," replied Rufinus. "She knows herself; and, because she knows how painful pain is, she treats others tenderly.
Ah! why were you not Pulcheria? No, for then Alexandria had been dark, and Orestes missed the supreme happiness of kissing a hand which Pallas, when she made you, must have borrowed from the workshop of Aphrodite. 'Recollect that you are a Christian, answered Hypatia, half smiling.
At the bottom of the stairs, she threw her arms round the child and asked her in a low voice: "Do you pine for the cloister do you wish to go away from us like your mother, to think of nothing but saving your soul, to live a nun in the holy seclusion which Pulcheria has described to you so often?"
In any case, Dounia saw clearly that her mother was not in full possession of her faculties. It happened once or twice, however, that Pulcheria Alexandrovna gave such a turn to the conversation that it was impossible to answer her without mentioning where Rodya was, and on receiving unsatisfactory and suspicious answers she became at once gloomy and silent, and this mood lasted for a long time.

In the house they were met by Horapollo, but Joanna and Pulcheria returned his greeting with a cold bow, while Mary purposely turned her back on him.
She happened to be visiting her daughter, the keeper's wife, and induced her to do what she could to be agreeable to Paula. So she and Betta were lodged in a separate cell, and her gold coin proved acceptable to the man, who did his utmost to mitigate her lot. Indeed, Pulcheria had even been allowed to visit her and to bring her the last roses that the drought had left in the garden.

She was always very excitable and complaining, and she always spoke with a shrill voice, gesticulating a great deal; but this time she pounced upon me. "Come, come, go to your father this minute, young sir," she sputtered out. "What tricks you've been up to, you shameless boy!
How little did I think yesterday in the train that I could ever be glad of that." "I tell you again, mother, he is still very ill. Don't you see it? Perhaps worrying about us upset him.
