    A good example of a perfervid character would be Hamlet when he's acting mad.

    Used in a sentence:

    Fiona's perfervid temperment had caused her to be ostracized by her Uncle Charles.
    Down the street you can hear her scream youre a disgrace
    As she slams the door in his drunken face
    And now he stands outside
    And all the neighbours start to gossip and drool
    He cries oh, girl you must be mad,
    What happened to the sweet love you and me had?
    Against the door he leans and starts a scene,
    And his tears fall and burn the garden green

    I like that idea, Jessie.

    Though the electric shock treatment had done little but render her prematurely grey, Aunt Jemima was considered no longer a threat to the community at large, bar those occasions on public transport when unwitting bus drivers would receive the blunt end of her umbrella for playing top forty radio stations, or those myriad times when high street pigeons would uncluster, flapping and screeching away from one of Jemima's perfervid outbursts of "Damned fucking birds! Nothing but the devil's fucking rats with wings, trying to peck inside my head, but I'll show you! Aaaaaaaaaahhhhhh!!"
