Only one person knows the stunt and she quite mystifies everyone who presents himself and obeys her, till some one guesses the secret or she finally tells it.
"Entertaining Made Easy"
Emily Rose Burt
As they are men not easily to be daunted, the tableau, though it somewhat mystifies, does not affright or drive them back.
"The Lone Ranche"
Captain Mayne Reid
If the patient is up and about, she mystifies him; he is apt to make mistakes; he loses interest; he wonders if she couldn't come to him, instead of his having to go to her; but when he finds the ailing person in bed, the case is natural and straightforward; he feels at home, and knows how to go to work.
"The Girl at Cobhurst"
Frank Richard Stockton
