From the "Wonder" exhibit at the Renwick Gallery of the Smithsonian Museum:
"Wonder is defined as a constriction and suspension of the heart caused by amazement at the sensible appearance of something so portentous, great, and unusual, that the heart suffers a systole." Saint Albertus Magnus lived in the 13th century.
