They mingled with their pupils, passing rapidly from one side of the class to the other, animating, encouraging, sympathizing, breathing life- into less active natures, assuring the timid, distributing encouragement and endearment to all.

Seite 60 - I can only say that, during all the time mentioned, I never saw a blow struck, I never heard a sharp rebuke given, I never saw a child in tears, nor arraigned at the teacher's bar for any alleged misconduct. On the contrary, the relation seemed to be one of duty first, and then affection, on the part of the teacher, — of affection first, and then duty, on the part of the scholar.
