He, that is to say, who has died with Christ, whose centre henceforward is in the supernatural, simply no longer finds death to be what nature finds it. It no longer makes for division but for union; it no longer imperils or ends life and interest and possession, but releases them from risk and mortality. Here, then, He deliberately and explicitly acts upon this truth.

Why not toast a horse with the prescience and generalship of a Napoleon, a horse who drives straight at all obstacles in a fair field, but who never imperils his rider's head beneath over-hanging boughs; who foresees and evades the "blind ditches" and other perils lurking behind hedges and walls and who lands as steady and safe on ice as he takes off out of muck?

Your present imprisonment is not necessarily a life sentence; but your satisfaction in it your acceptance of the routine of your treadmill is chilling to the hopes of those who have waited upon your progress; and it imperils your future as well as that hope we have in the humanities that are to be implanted in the minds of the young people you are to instruct.

Nor could it sanction giving the guardianship of a child to one who daringly imperils his own life or the lives of children, nor can it sanction any rights of guardianship unless due cause be given for granting them."

Why, take even this enemy of yours, this Cross. He was one of the notables of these parts rich, popular, influential; he led a life of utmost luxury and pleasure.

"Let's see," said the commander, "where was I.... Oh, yes.... Realise that we go out and save lives that the enemy imperils far out at sea? They are lives that don't concern us, but we don't feel like letting a poor chap drown if we can help it. On the other hand, our enemy stops at nothing, and, moreover, takes advantage of our humanity.

These, and corresponding acts in the line of military police regulations, and touching every social, moral, and physical habit which assails or enfeebles a soldier's life and imperils a campaign, run through his papers.

"Nay, Morano," Rodriguez said, "no man, as they taught me well in the College of San Josephus, should ever imperil his soul." "But, master," Morano said, "a man imperils his body in the wars yet hopes by dexterity and his sword to draw it safely thence: so a man of courage and high heart may surely imperil his soul and still hope to bring it at the last to salvation."

"An English knight of old." "It shall be my task," said Toro, "to keep up his character, and give it a realistic look by a hand-to-hand fight." "Don't be rash," said the mendicant friar, "or you may chance to be beaten." "I can risk my life on it." "You have you do; every hour that you live here imperils it. Did you see the party go?" "I did," said Mathias.
