She is an envious and a rather ill-tempered girl, with very little of the spirit of sisterhood in her. And she nurses her defect of isolation and self-sufficiency. I hope that we may win her over to wider, sweeter outlooks some day." Mattie Smith, however, was one of the people upon whom Imogen wasted no smiles.
Fliedner, as long ago she had done with the vicar of Embley, and we may be sure any sick people whom she visited were always left clean and comfortable when she said good-bye. But at Kaiserswerth Miss Nightingale had very little chance of learning any surgery, so she felt that she could not do better than pass some time in Paris with the nursing sisterhood of St.
Flight's Sisterhood, are not they?" "And Primrose Merrifield says that Wilfred declares that they are not ladies; but that's all jealousy, you know, because Will doesn't like my friends, and Magdalen is altogether gone upon grandees." "Fancy!" was all that Phyllis managed to say. "She doesn't want us to be friends with anybody who don't belong to some one with a handle to her name.
At times she was even headstrong and turbulent, so that the gentle sisterhood of St. Sebastian, who had no other pet or plaything in the world, began to weep in secret fearing that they might have been rearing by mistake some future tigress for as to infancy, that, you know, is playful and innocent even in the cubs of a tigress.

I do not regret the time I have spent there, but I must admit I shall be glad to leave the sisterhood. That life is too narrow for me, and perhaps too shallow. I say nothing against it in a general way; I only speak of it as it relates to myself.
From that time I cheerfully underwent the discipline of flagellation, learning the regular method of practising it from the sisterhood, and feeling, in a spiritual point of view, immensely the better for it. The nuns, finding that I cheerfully devoted myself to every act of self-sacrifice prescribed by the rules of their convent, wondered very much that I still hesitated about taking the veil.
Among the deputies from the priesthood at Thebes were several women of high rank, who served in the worship of this God, and among them was Katuti, who by the particular desire of the Regent had lately been admitted to this noble sisterhood. Ameni walked thoughtfully by the side of the prophet Gagabu.
It is not evil, I know, so far as you and all your friends can manage; but it stirs up the evil in one's self." "And so would a Sisterhood. That is a world, too." "I suppose it is, and that there would be temptation; but there is a great deal to help one to keep right.
