And so the Spirit which seals us unto the redemption of the possession has to be received, held, diffused throughout, and utilised by our own effort.
"He would walk up and down the poop, looking down on all around, thus" and the boatswain would compress his lips, throw back his shoulders, and inflate his chest; the walk he could not imitate because he had a stiff knee.

These mysteries beyond the grave fascinate me, sir.
Open those dim eyes of yours, good sir! stir those thin old legs! inflate that sunken chest! Ha! is that cough imaginary? those trembling muscles, are they a delusion is that misty glance only a momentary weakness There is no youth left in you, Mr. MacGentle; not so much as would keep a rose in bloom for an hour. "Have you seen Doctor Glyphic lately?" inquired Helwyse, after a pause.
She was nearly seventeen years old, not very tall, and her form, to speak charitably, was more neat than slender. "A while ago," said the Major, resuming the conversation as he carved the roast, "a young fellow came to me who had invented a new sort of pump to inflate rubber tires. He wanted capital to patent the pump and put it on the market.
Honesty is the best policy, even in dealing with an enemy. The affair of the Argus and the Pelican was not calculated to inflate Yankee pride. To balance this, however, came two brilliant actions by small ships. The new Peacock, named for the captured British brig, under Captain Lewis Warrington, stole past the blockade of New York.
