To go to séances with good intentions is like ... like ... holding a smoking-concert in a powder-magazine on behalf of an orphan asylum. It's not the least protection I'm not being profane, my dear it's not the least protection to open the concert with prayer. We've got no business there at all. So we're blown up just the same. "The danger...? Oh! the danger's this, Mr. Cathcart says.
The king, by his constitutional temerity, by his almost puerile love of confronting danger for the danger's sake, was on the verge of sacrificing himself with all the hopes of his house and of the nobler portion of his people for an absolute nothing; while the duke, out of his superabundant caution, peremptorily refused to stretch out his hand and seize the person of his great enemy when directly within his, grasp.
"I've heard him pray," said Miss Junk, mysteriously "yes, you may look, for there ain't no prayer in the crafty eye of him but pray he do, and asks to be kept from danger " "Danger?" "Danger's the word, for I won't deceive you, no, not if you paid me better wages than the old man do give and he's as near as the paring of an inion.
The meteor-flag of England Shall yet terrific burn; Till danger's troubled night depart And the star of peace return. Then, then, ye ocean warriors! Our song and feast shall flow To the fame of your name, When the storm has ceased to blow; When the fiery fight is heard no more, And the storm has ceased to blow.

The Abbot only sprang forward with shining eyes; but the chancellor and the master hung upon either arm and wrested him back out of danger's way. "He is possessed of a devil!" they shouted. "Run, brother Ambrose, brother Joachim! Call Hugh of the Mill, and Woodman Wat, and Raoul with his arbalest and bolts. Tell them that we are in fear of our lives! Run, run! for the love of the Virgin!"
Behold this bracelet charm, of sovereign power To baffle fate in danger's awful hour; But thou must still the perilous secret keep, Nor ask the harvest of renown to reap; For when, by this peculiar signet known, Thy glorious father shall demand his son, Doomed from her only joy in life to part, O think what pangs will rend thy mother's heart!
"I believe the worst danger's over," he said; "though there's a possibility of a relapse. He'll need careful attention for several days." "Longer, I think," said Harding. "Anyhow, you'll have to make up your mind to stay while it strikes us as necessary." "My time's valuable, and you run some risk in keeping me.
Ofttimes brutal, he was never vulgar, while as a lover of sheer daring and of danger for danger's sake, he has never been eclipsed. . . . Sixteenth-century Spain produced a race of Christian warriors whose piety, born of an intense realization of, and love for a militant Christ, was of a martial complexion, beholding in the symbol of salvation the Cross the standard of Christendom around which the faithful must rally, and for whose protection and exaltation swords must be drawn and blood spilled if need be.
Father Lucien crossed the floor and after standing for a time beside the bunk came back and sat down by the stove. "You can put in fresh wood; it won't disturb him now," he said. "He's sleeping well. I think the danger's over." The cord wood snapped and crackled, the front of the stove got red, and sitting in a corner out of the draughts, they began to talk in low voices.
I can see it all as well as if I'd been here all the time. You took fright after after his death. Women are always more frightened after the danger's over than at the time, especially when they're brave.
