    "[…] my nerves were shattered by a blatant exhorter, […] who insisted on his r’s with a nasal persistence which revolted my every instinct. […] I believe the minister was a good man, but when he bellowed: “And the Lorrrd said unto Moses, the Lorrrd is a man of war; the Lorrrd is his name. My wrath shall wax hot and I will kill you with the sworrrd!”. I wondered how many centuries of purgatory it would take to atone for such a sin."
