Before, however, all this blending of Semitic religiosity with Hellenic philosophical ideas, and with something of the old Hellenic Mansuetude, which had survived even under Macedonian masters to modify Asiatic minds, could issue in Christianity, half the East, with its dispersed heirs of Alexander, had passed under the common and stronger yoke of Rome.
"The Ancient East"
D. G. Hogarth
He was positively sheeplike in his Mansuetude, whereas I had intended to make him a stern avenger of virtue.
"A Top-Floor Idyl"
George van Schaick
To this religion of such charming Mansuetude whenever it has the upper hand, a Protestant engineer named Gerard is converted by puerile arguments which in any other domain than the theological would seem to be the divagations of a lunatic; and the Cure Bonnet proclaims the necessity of passive obedience by the masses to the Church's rule in matters civil as well as ecclesiastic.
