The caïman was not one of large size, else the turtle would have fled from it, not that even the largest caïmans are feared by the full-grown carapas. No; the strong plate-armour of the latter protects them both from the teeth and tail of this antagonist. The jaguar, with his pliable paws and sharp subtle claws, is to them a more dreaded assailant than the crocodile or caïman.
The lightening-rod which protects the Warner House to-day was put up under Benjamin Franklin's own supervision in 1762 such at all events is the credited tradition and is supposed to be the first rod put up in New Hampshire. A lightening-rod "personally conducted" by Benjamin Franklin ought to be an attractive object to even the least susceptible electricity.
"No, Wife of Tombool," he said, "I shall not die; every year I doctor myself with this magic medicine that is called Dawa, after which all the snakes in Sisa-Land remember that they are many, Little Flower may bite me if they like." "Is it your magic or is it the medicine that protects you?" asked Dorcas. "Both, Lady.
"But what will conscience and the laws of God do?" asked Lawton. "'Tis well, sir," said Wellmere, haughtily, and retreating towards the door, "my situation protects you now; but a time may come " He had reached the entry, when a slight tap on his shoulder caused him to turn his head; it was Captain Lawton, who, with a smile of peculiar meaning, beckoned him to follow.
"If they would only realize that the British fleet is the only thing standing between them and Germany they would become panicked. But they don't and while the British fleet protects them from the Prussian who is out for world domination they soak the British hundreds of per cent. profit on supplies. It is really very funny if you can see it from the humorous standpoint."
On the wild heath in mournful guise he stood, Ere the shrill boatswain gave the hated sign; He dropt a tear unseen into the flood, He stole one secret moment to repine "Why am I ravish'd from my native strand? What savage race protects this impious gain? Shall foreign plagues infest this teeming land, And more than sea-born monsters plough the main?
When this has happened, in the language of the old surgeon-philosophers, "suppuration is established," and the patient is saved. Or if, as often happens, an antitoxin is formed, which protects the whole body, this is largely built out of substances set free from the bodies of slain leucocytes.
"Then, brother," I replied, "you can return to your China, post haste or at whatever haste you are bound to go, as I am not fit for so long a travel and, besides being ill, I am very much without money, while Emperor for Emperor and Monarch for Monarch, I have at Naples the great Count of Lemos, who, without so many petty titles of colleges and rectorships, sustains me, protects me and does me more favour than I can wish for."

The loins are tightly girt with a long waist-belt or kummerbund of cloth, which, passed repeatedly between the limbs and round the loins, sufficiently braces up and protects that part of the body.
SEMELE. Here let her wander, and give birth to scorn! What is't to me? My Jupiter protects My every hair, what harm can Juno do? But now, enough of this, my Beroe! Zeus must appear to-day in all his glory; And if Saturnia should on that account Find out the path to Orcus JUNO. From Sidon to Athens the trumpet of fame Shall ring with no other but Semele's name!
