summary:
  The pleasant voice must have hurt poor Selene acutely for she drew up her shoulders, and her fair features were stamped with an expression of keen suffering, and she pressed both hands over her heart as she went on past the screen and her handsome flirting playfellow, limping across the courtyard and into the road. As she spoke she rose and kissed Selene on her forehead and eyes, and Selene clung to her and could only say with swimming eyes, and a voice trembling with feeling: Dame Hannah, dear widow Hannah.

  Poor Selene! By Georg Ebers Volume 6. CHAPTER I. Dame Hannah had watched by Selene till sunrise and indefatigably cooled both her injured foot and the wound in her head.

summary:
  Loud voices hurt the Empress, and a clear voice was a misery to her, and yet few men possessed so loud and penetrating a chest voice as her husband, who was not wont to lay restraint upon himself for any human being, not even for his wife. I have given years of study to the early youth of Christianity, particularly in Egypt, and it affords me particular satisfaction to help others to realize how, in Hadrian's time, the pure teaching of the Saviour, as yet little sullied by the contributions of human minds, conquered--and could not fail to conquer--the hearts of men.

  He commanded that little children should be brought to Him, and He promised them the Kingdom of Heaven. Oh! cried Balbilla, full of regret, poor man--and such a fine fellow!

summary:
  I like to see great men. When at last Hadrian stepped back from the happy caricature and called upon him to say whether that were not indeed the Roman lady, Pollux exclaimed: It is as surely she, as you are not merely a great architect, but an admirable sculptor.

  The little rascals mean no harm and never bite even a beggar, but they never could endure old women. Her tall thin figure quivered with excitement, and to any one else she would have appeared in the highest degree graceless, unwomanly, and repulsive: but Verus had been accustomed from his childhood to see her with kinder eyes than other men, and it grieved him.

  Come Arsinoe, let us find a litter at once! No, no! exclaimed Doris eagerly. Folly, said Arsinoe reddening, and stretching herself with fatigue she threw herself back on a couch.

summary:
  So he, on whose faithful devotion she had built as on a rock, was no less self-seeking and fickle than other men. Alas! alas!--I never persecute an imaginary foe, as such I reckon the creeds and ideas of other men; still, I cannot but ask myself whether it can add to the prosperity of the state when citizens cease to struggle against the pressure and necessity of life and console themselves for them instead, by the hope of visionary happiness in another world which perhaps only exists in the fancy of those who believe in it.
