There are good men and bad among Normans, as among Saracens." "I thank you," said Gilbert, smiling now, in spite of himself. "The devils also believe and tremble," retorted Arnold, grimly quoting. "The taking of the South proves my words; it is not half my meaning. Men take the cross and give their lives for a name, a tradition, the sacred memories of a holy place.
I am quoting a gentleman who is interested in sociological questions very largely. From what he said I deduce the conclusion that the daughters of the poor are preyed upon by the men so successfully as to account for the prevalence of virtue in the wealthier circles. Fearful stories are current of the immorality of the working girls, but these, I suppose, may be discounted to a certain extent.

Whoever he may be, and since he seems to care so very little for his name himself, and looks at it from such a philosophical point of view, we ought not, perhaps, to be too particular about it; whoever he may be, he is unquestionably a Doctor of the New School, the scientific school, and will be able to produce his diploma when properly challenged; whoever he may be, he belongs to 'the Globe' for the manager of that theatre is incessantly quoting him, and dramatizing his philosophy, and he says himself, 'I look on all men as my compatriots, and prefer the universal and common tie to the national.
Now is the day when every man oughter come out an' show their colors," said the woman, quoting from Beardsley. "That means Marcy Gray," said Tom. "I wish I could see a gang of armed men take him out of the house and carry him off." "He mustn't be teched," said the woman very decidedly. "Who mustn't Marcy?" exclaimed Tom and Mark in a breath.
