Cecilia suffered it not to languish for want of kindness to support it; she took her to her bosom, became the soother of all her cares, and reposed in her, in return, every thought that led not to Delvile.
She was the delight of the eye and of the ear, the soother of groans, the refuge of distress, the uplifter of the heart. She made new acquaintances for him, and cemented old friendships. Her manner towards his old friends enchanted him; but when they were gone she had a way of making him feel that she was only his. She thought that she was succeeding in her aim.
"How fortunate am I," said Florence, one day, "that my choice fell on one who thinks as you do! How your words elevate and exalt me! yet once I never dreamt of asking your creed on these questions. It is in sorrow or sickness that we learn why Faith was given as a soother to man Faith, which is Hope with a holier name hope that knows neither deceit nor death.
Your image has linked itself indissolubly with all I conceived of home and happiness, and a tranquil and peaceful future; and now I return, and see you, and find you changed, but, oh, how lovely! Ah, let us not part again! A consoler, a guide, a soother, father, brother, husband, all this my heart whispers I could be to you!" Ellinor turned away her face, but her heart was very full.
Mony a lee I tauld doon there i' the clachan to soother them oot o' butter and milk and eggs, and a bit hen at times; mony a time I hae gie'n my ain dinner to thae gangrel bodies frae Glencro sooner nor hae them think there was nae rowth o' vivers whaur they never wer sent awa empty-haunded afore.

He had gone straight home from Lincoln's Inn, and packed his portmanteau, knowing only that he was going away somewhere out of things, caring little where, so long as it was remote and lonely. Fellow-man and especially woman was distasteful to him at the moment. He craved only Solitude the Soother, and Nature the Healer.
She answered, "Somnus, gentlest of the gods, tranquillizer of minds and soother of careworn hearts, Juno sends you her commands that you dispatch a dream to Halcyone, in the city of Trachinae, representing her lost husband and all the events of the wreck."
P'rhaps 'tis as well to keep children from pears; The pain they might cause, is oft follow'd by tears; 'Tis certainly well to keep them from plums; But certainly not from sucking their thumbs! If a babe suck his thumb 'Tis an ease to his gum; A comfort; a boon; a calmer of grief; A friend in his need affording relief; A solace; a good; a soother of pain; A composer to sleep; a charm; and a gain.
"You don't take to the pipe yet; you will by and by, when you have known the cares and anxieties that I have gone through. A pipe! it is a great soother! a pleasant comforter! Blue devils fly before its honest breath! It ripens the brain it opens the heart; and the man who smokes thinks like a sage and acts like a Samaritan!"
