"Well, what did you think of it last night?" "Well, I own that it went against my grain to see that young fellow being victimized by a sharper." "My dear Mark, you must not use such language as that. I fancy from what I have heard that the Honorable John is not altogether an estimable character, but to call him a sharper is going too far altogether."
When most absorbed or irritated he never victimized his household by moods or tempers, not only because they were at his mercy, but because his nature spontaneously gave as it received; his friends had his best always, his enemies the very worst of which his intense passionate nature was capable.

But Stuyvesant was out of the gate and at last out of hearing, and with a vicious bang to the door, the lady of the P. D.
