He also tried to feel in himself the emotions of the person he was painting. For instance, it is said that when he was painting the "Scourging of St. Andrew," he threw himself into a passion, and used threatening gestures and high words.
"She took great care to fall with decency."70 Celer likewise, a Roman knight, who was accused of an intrigue with her, while they were scourging him with rods71 in the Forum, persisted in exclaiming, "What have I done? I have done nothing."
"That some gods of evil have been at work," muttered young Escanes between set teeth, "and spirited the tyrannical madman out of the way for the further scourging of his people." "The spirit, my lords," she interposed quietly, "that led my kinsman to safety last night was one which actuated the noblest patrician in Rome to do his duty loyally by the Cæsar."
"He righted my daughter when there was shame on her," the farmer replied. That was the idea printed simply on his understanding. For Edward to hear it was worse than a scourging with rods.

When we have commenced a career, what stop is there till the grave? where is the definite barrier of that ambition which, like the eastern bird, seems ever on the wing, and never rests upon the earth? Our names are not settled till our death: the ghosts of what we have done are made our haunting monitors our scourging avengers if ever we cease to do, or fall short of the younger past.
Simultaneously a famine was scourging Behar, and Vennard, to do him justice, had made manful efforts to cope with it. He had gone fully into the question, and had been slowly coming to the conclusion that Behar was hopelessly overcrowded.
