When introduced in even a minute quantity it produces death finally by asphyxiation by paralysing the muscles of respiration. This asphyxia is what so puzzled the coroner. "I will now inject a little of the blood serum of the victims into a white mouse." He took a mouse from the box I had seen, and with a needle injected the serum.
All these pleas are the mere platitudes of a religious apologetic trying to harmonise a primitive theory of things with a larger knowledge and a more developed moral sense. Pain and suffering in the world remain facts whether we believe in the existence of a God or not, but we are at least freed from the paralysing horror of the belief that all the suffering and pain in nature is part of a plan.
As she leapt I shot at her in the air and pierced her through the loins, paralysing her, so that although she fell down near the King, she could not come at him to kill him. I sprang from my chariot, but before I could reach the lioness hunters had run up with spears and stabbed her, which was easy as she could not move.
Most men in such a situation would have been paralysed with terror." The idea of Sir George paralysing anybody with terror struck me as so delightful that I almost burst out laughing, but by a great effort I just managed to restrain myself.

One of those natures gifted with all the tenderness that belongs to the angel idea woman; yet soaring above her sex in the paralysing moments of peril and despair.
He would not cut off Jugurtha from all hope of a compromise. He may have believed that he was paralysing the king's efforts while he continued his steady advance, and turning his enemy's favourite weapon against that enemy himself. Perhaps he even let his thoughts dally with the hope that the envoys who had proved such facile traitors might find some means of redeeming their promises.
He was not to forget it so long as he lived. It was so white and still, so angerless. His paralysing terror was gone. He leapt to his feet. He raced down the passage, flinging himself on his father, beating him with his fists, shrieking: "You devil you devil!" After that ho did not know what happened. He seemed to be enveloped in a cloud of struggling figures.
A timid child at all times, there is no need to say that when I crept to the head of the stairs, and, after listening there breathlessly for a few seconds, ascertained beyond doubt that more than one man was moving about in the rooms below me, I was filled with almost a paralysing sense of terror.
