By 'death' in this place we must not understand that which is natural, but that which is in hell, the second death, even everlasting damnation; for natural death the saints die, yea, and also many sinners, without the least touch of a sting from that; but here is a death that has a sting to hurt, to twinge, and wound the sinner with, even then when it has the utmost mastery of him.
"Beware of the temptations of the flesh, my children," said the priest. "The Evil One is very subtle, and not only in our moments of pride and prosperity, but also in our hours of sorrow and affliction, he is for ever waiting and watching to betray us to our downfall and damnation."
Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell? And if He were here tonight He would be on my side and the rich evil-doers who sit on this board would cast Him out again! You have cast Him out already! You have shut your ears to the cry of the oppressed you make mockery of justice and truth! You are crucifying Him again every day!" "This is outrageous!" cried Mr.

"The moderates have so far been working among the upper classes," Solomin remarked, "and we must go for the lower." "We don't want it! damnation! We don't want it!" Golushkin bawled out furiously.
For if with some people one assume that God, choosing the plan which produces the most good, but which involves sin and damnation, has been prompted by his wisdom to choose the best natures in order to make them objects of his grace, this grace would not sufficiently appear to be a free gift.
At the ripe age of ten he was taken from school, and set to assist his father in the trade of tallow-chandler and soap-boiler.

"Zounds!" cried D'Artagnan, "don't call him Porthos, nor even Vallon; call him De Bracieux or De Pierrefonds; thou wilt knell out damnation to my mission otherwise."
