| appeal |     |
n. attraction; charm; attract; fascinate; challenge
She was glad of this appeal for tenderness.
I never appeal to him, and never shall appeal to him.
I had been unhappy in trying it; I could not endure my own solitary wisdom; I could not reconcile it with her former appeal to me as my child-wife.
| humanity | |
n. kindness; virtue; all of the inhabitants of the earth
If there were a trace of humanity left in her, she ought not to wish for it herself.
No man of common humanity, no man who had any value for his character, could be capable of it.
See that she is cared for as her condition demands, and you have done all that God and humanity require of you.
