A European State is only a State because it is a State of Europe; and the demarcations between the ever-shifting States of Europe are only dotted lines, but between the Christian and the non-Christian the boundary is hard and full. Now, a man who recognises this truth will ask, "Where could I find a model of the past of that Europe?
He had awakened, as it were, into a new world, a new and glorious life. From the porch of the old homestead it sat on a hill that commanded an extensive view he saw in maplike demarcations fields and woods and bottoms, like those that had rushed past in the dream, lying still and silent beneath him in sunlit reality. His bondage was over. He came and went at will.
He had been used to the impassable demarcations of Caste; he did not dispute them more now that he was without, than he had done when within, their magic pale.
A great deal had been upset since his day, when the boxes and pit had been so conveniently separated; old boundaries no longer defined, limited, their content; social demarcations were being obliterated by a growing disaffection. It was very unfortunate, for, as he was seeing, unhappiness ensued. It was bound to.
She was dignified, graceful, and, he considered, of admirable parts.

They seem to carry a sort of map in their heads: on the far side of the frontier that borders the friendly territory lies the enemy; and it needs but a word, a gesture, a difference of opinion for you to find yourself in exile. Alas, have we not enough with all the limits, demarcations, laws and judgments that are perhaps necessary to the world at large?
A man of imagination is never moral; he outsoars literal demarcations and reviews life under too many shifting lights to rest content with the invidious distinctions of the law! 'But you always say at least, so I understood you' said madame, 'that these lads display no imagination whatever.
For this reason no logical scheme of the parts of speech their number, nature, and necessary confines is of the slightest interest to the linguist. Each language has its own scheme. Everything depends on the formal demarcations which it recognizes. Yet we must not be too destructive. It is well to remember that speech consists of a series of propositions.
Even in our own day such an exhibition would be, to say the least, suspicious; and in that day, when ranks and classes were divided with iron demarcations, a young gallant, whose dress bespoke him of gentle quality, with one of opposite sex, and belonging to the humbler orders, in broad day too, was far more open to censure.
