But there was something. It was wrapping the coils of wire with tape. Mr. Wilson said they used hundreds of thousands of these coils all the time, and they had to be wrapped to insulate them. It was this work that he believed the blind could learn to do. Anyhow, he determined to try it. And try it he did.

It's a bad sign when two people must have some third person about to insulate their self-consciousness and prevent those fatal moments when they have to be just their own selves, and have it out." "You think there's been trouble between them?" His voice was quite steady, his manner composed. "I don't think quite that. But there is trouble in that palace. Rudyard is going to South Africa."

He was in precisely the right mood to construe the gentle jest into an admission that his father, failing to make him a cog in one of the wheels of the machine, had gone about in some mysterious way to insulate him to make it impossible for him to get into the real tide of affairs. But he kept his temper, in a measure, at least.

When the enquiry is, What are the effects of a given cause? experiment is far the superior, since it enables us not merely to produce many more and more opportune variations than nature, which is not arranged on the plan of facilitating our studies, offers spontaneously, but, what is a greater advantage, though one less attended to, also to insulate the phenomenon by placing it among known circumstances, which can be then infinitely varied by introducing a succession of well-defined new ones.

Hanson fretted as he saw it sink into the shell, sure it would begin to melt the sky material. It seemed to have no effect, however; apparently the sun was not supposed to melt the sky when it was in place so the little sun didn't melt the shell. Once he was sure of that, he used a scrap of the sky to insulate the second little sun that would control the first sympathetically from the track.

We might even place a layer of asphalte between the copper floor and the ground, so as to insulate the building. If the mill were then struck with lightning, it would remain charged for some time, and a person standing on the ground outside and touching the wall might receive a shock, but no electrical effect would be perceived inside, even on the most delicate electrometer.

Why insulate him thus from all sympathy and kindness? Clifford, alas! has had too much of solitude. Now let him try society, the society, that is to say, of kindred and old friends. Let me, for instance, but see Clifford, and I will answer for the good effect of the interview." "You cannot see him," answered Hepzibah. "Clifford has kept his bed since yesterday." "What! How!

The baseboard is with advantage borne by four rounded india-rubber feet, which insulate it from the table on which it may be placed.

And I may add here, as the corollary of this conclusion, first that the evoking and fostering of such ardour is in itself a piece of social service of the highest value, and next that it makes every individual socially responsible for the due sharing of even the small measure of ardour, certitude or power he or she has received. We are to be conductors of the Divine energy; not to insulate it.

For it was the old northern genius, under the influence, not of the revival of the learning of antiquity only, but of that accumulated influence which its previous revival on the Continent brought with it here; under the influence, too, of that insular nurture, which began so soon to colour and insulate English history; 'Britain is a world by itself, says Prince Cloten, 'and we will nothing pay, etc. it was the old northern genius nurtured in the cradle of that 'bravery' which had written its page of fire in the Roman Caesar's story which had arrested the old classic historian's pen, and fired it with a poet's prophecy, and taught him too how to pronounce from the old British hero's lip the burning speech of English freedom; it was that which began to show itself here, then, in that new tongue, which we call the 'Elizabethan. It was that which could not fit its words to its mouth as it had a mind to do under those conditions, and was glad to know that 'the audience was deferred. That was the thing which found itself so much embarrassed by the presence of 'a man of prodigious fortune at the table, who had leave 'to change its arguments with a magisterial authority. It was that which was expected to produce its speech to 'serve as the base matter to illuminate' not the Caesar but the Tudor the Tudor and the Stuart: the last of the Tudors and the first of the Stuarts.
