He saw the country in full dress, and had little or no opportunity of judging of it unhouselled, disappointed, unannealed, with all its imperfections on its head, as I and my family too often had.
"Domestic Manners of the Americans"
Fanny Trollope
And, harkye, my son, said the Bishop, resting his hand affectionately on Adrian's shoulder, I have reason to hope that he will remind our poor citizens of the Jubilee for the year Fifty, and stir them towards clearing the road of the brigands: a necessary injunction, and one to be heeded timeously; for who will come here for absolution when he stands a chance of rushing unannealed upon purgatory by the way?
"Rienzi"
Edward Bulwer Lytton
