Why did cursed fortune bring him into the rooms over mine? And then came demand for an apology; refusal on my part; appeal to the dean; convocation; and rustication of George Savage Fitz-Boodle. She had an entire mastery over the worthy old gentleman, and thought I was a sort of demon of wickedness.
For long I understood rustication to be merely a playful form of expression for "taking a degree;" and I was the more confirmed in this impression from observing that those who had experienced this treatment were spoken of with high respect and approbation by their fellow-collegians. What odd creatures young men are!
The expenses of my last year made it necessary for me to exert my industry, and many other good ends are answered at the same time. Where I next settle I shall, continue, and that must be in a state of retirement and rustication. It is therefore good for me to have a run of society, and that, various, and consisting of marked characters.
There is the same rustication of casings and jambs up to the height of the doors, but molded spandrils occupy the spaces each side of the round arch with its wide ornate keystone. Exceptionally broad tapering and fluted mullions lend distinction to the heavy fanlight sash with its round-ended openings.

Or, to take it in the prose form: Very charming to the poor man, in his rustication here. "'Eight hours in a piece, with the Sister of the King of Prussia" writes he: think of that, my friends! 'She loaded me with bounties; made me a most beautiful present. These points, hurriedly put down, careful readers will mark, and perhaps try to keep in mind.
He was terribly hurt, and had been taken by the police in the first instance to the hospital. This inevitably meant rustication, and, above all, expulsion from the academic association to which he belonged.
I hadn't realised till this moment how I had been missing it all these days of rustication, and my heart went out to it with a vast homesickness. "Yes! the Strand," I repeated tenderly, "the Strand at night!" "Indeed, yes! what is more beautiful in the whole world?" she joined in ardently.
