'T is time to leave the books in dust, And oil the unused armor's rust; Removing from the wall The corslet of the hall. So restless Cromwell could not cease In the inglorious arts of peace, But through adventurous war Urged his active star. And, like the three-forked lightning, first Breaking the clouds wherein it nurst, Did thorough his own side His fiery way divide.
"Wherefore those who practise a religious life should always think about 'the body'; if thought upon one's self be absent, then all virtue dies. For as the champion warrior relies for victory upon his armor's strength, so 'right thought' is like a strong cuirass, able to withstand the six sense-robbers.
O brothers! blest by partial Fate With power to match the will and deed, To him your summons comes too late, Who sinks beneath his armor's weight, And has no answer but God-speed! The origin of species, like all origination, like the institution of any other natural state or order, is beyond our immediate ken. We see or may learn how things go on; we can only frame hypotheses as to how they began.

In a proud innocence, I stood with folded arms, and could afford to smile.
"Though I am as sure as you are of the doctor, or of M. Tripeaud, under present circumstances, we must not touch on the question of acting which will be sure to frighten them at first until after our interview with your niece.

Costigan heaved her up into the vessel with a powerful jerk, slammed the door shut, leaped to the controls, and the speedster darted away. "Your armor's in that bundle there. Better put it on, and check your Lewistons and pistols no telling what kind of jams we'll get into," he snapped, without turning. "Bradley, start talking ... all right, I've got your line.
