     Under some conceivable circumstances
     Bubbling over with infectious joy
     Frigid dignity and arrogant reserve
     A profound contempt
     The fine art of hospitality
     Grim morsels of philosophy
     A tinge of sorrowness and jealousy
     Due to ignorance and barbarism
     Grave and monstrous scandal
     A splendid instance of self-devotion
     Amusingly exemplified in this case
     Recognized and powerful element
     A symbol of restraint
     An utterly fallacious idea
     In rapid and striking succession
     We learn from stern experience
     Pictures of an inspired imagination
     An astonishing outbreak
     Soothing words of sympathy
     A rather bold assertion
     The most enthusiastic adherents
     Mere tepid conviction
     Eminently qualified for the task
     Almost supernatural charm
     In glowing and exaggerated phrases
     Somewhat rich and austere
     An inexhaustible theme
     Grave and undeniable faults
     Perfectly chosen language
     All the characteristics of a mob
     Given to grandiloquent phrase
     Peculiar vein of sarcasm
     Froze like ice and cut like steel
     A generous tribute to an eminent rival
     Cold and stately composure
     Fiery and passionate enthusiasm
     Extraordinary violence of nature
     A brilliant and delightful play
     Rare and striking combination
     Preeminently qualified for the part
     Moderate and cautious conservatism
     Daring perversions of justice
     Devoid of rhetorical device
     As a great thinker has observed
     Almost morbid sensitiveness
     Discreetly stifled yawn
     He was dumb with wonder
     Scarcely less familiar
     Delightfully characteristic
     It was a profound conviction
     Greatly conceived and expressed
     Blinded by its brightness
     I have cudgelled my memory
     Exposed to imminent peril
     Screening a breach of etiquette
     By a natural transition
     Splendid anticipations of success
     A very laudable attempt
     Lapsed into complete oblivion
     With most distinguished success
     Like embarking on a shoreless sea
     A really pretty imitation
     Unless I greatly err
     Undaunted by repeated failure
     Became a term of reproach
     An epoch-making achievement
     In the guise of verbal nonsense
     Received with cordial sympathy
     With the most obvious sincerity
     Held forth with fluency and zest
     Gracious solicitude
     Punctiliously civil and polite
     An air of sphinx-like mystery
     Consumed by zeal
     Awaited with lively interest
     Sledge-hammer blows against humbug
     This recalls a happy retort
     Preeminently a case in point
     Exquisite precision
