Excerpt from True Womanhood
We see it all through the Bible story: we read how Ahab was taunted by a woman, who won for him, by foulest means, the plot of ground he coveted but dared not take. We read of Herod, shamed by a child into the murder of St. John the Baptist; and, strangest of all, of that born leader of men who took from the first a foremost place among the apostles; who was ready to strike a blow against any odds on behalf of his Master; and dared to follow, quietly but steadily, to the place of trial while others ¿ed. Yet St. Peter was afraid of a girl's mocking voice and jeering laugh, and he denied his Lord.
