To women it is most necessary that they should become thoroughly imbued with the knowledge of the ideal female form, in order that they should recognize the perfection of it at once, and without effort, and so far as possible avoid deviations from the ideal.

The highly contestable laws of material economics, which usually reduce the chief preoccupations of life to a miserable question of wages or an abominable class-war, there gained the status of a veritable Messianic campaign, and the triumphant revolution, imbued with these dogmas, strove to bring the German paradox to an end, even against the sacred interests of patriotism.

When he "draws a bead" on one he does it with no such thoughts as common murderers must know when they shoot down their enemies. He does not think such killings are crude murder, any more than he regards feud killings as assassinations. With such ideas Madge had been, to some extent, imbued.

Such "provocation" would certainly rouse the military ego to a revenge ten thousand-fold greater than that taken at Zabern.

It was a very quiet place, imbued with a cloistered sanctity, and remote from all street-cries and rumble of the city, odorous of old literature, a spot where the commonest ideas ought not to be expressed in less than Latin.

This first nucleus of the representatives of the nation being thus assembled in Palermo, they became imbued with the same valor which in one short night had raised a popular tumult to the dignity of a revolution.
