Then I went up to them, and you know, sir, there is no language like the Irish for soothing and quieting.

"Come with me to the city," he said, "and we will arrange for such disposal of the remains as is best."
De Froilette left the palace unnoticed as he had come, and returned quickly to the Altstrasse. Francois hastened to attend him.

I have been in danger before.
Chinmoy, whose path was paved with "peace, light, and bliss," had several hundred followers worldwide, including rock musicians John "Mahavishnu" McLaughlin and Carlos "Devadip" Santana. Fascinated by Eastern philosophy and meditation techniques popularized in the late '60s, Fred returned to the east coast where he studied the art of quieting the mind with Chinmoy.
"Did I get him?" whispered Jerry, turning his head a little and looking eagerly into his father's face. The Governor placed his hand over his son's mouth, silencing the young man with a little hissing sound, like a mother quieting her babe. Agnes turned away, the disgust which she felt for this savage spirit of the man undisguised in her face. Dr Slavens cautioned the Governor again.
