The ancient Satan does indeed exist in some few formularies, but in such a washed-out and flimsy condition as to be the reverse of conspicuous. All that remains of him and of his subordinate legions is the ineffectual ghost of a departed creed, for the resuscitation of which no man will move a finger.
He laid the body down and threw off his coat that he might be the freer to practise the methods of resuscitation. He was glad of the moment's respite. The valiant life in the man might have been exhausted in that last struggle. He had not dared to look at his face, to put his ear to the heart. The hesitation lasted but a moment. There was no time to lose. He turned to his prostrate friend.
The minds of men had sported forth, not toward any sound investigation of facts, but toward an eclectic resuscitation of Neoplatonism; which endured, not without a certain beauty and use as let Spenser's "Faerie Queen" bear witness till the latter half of the seventeenth century. After that time a rapid change began.
Oh, de Lord!" and he looked the picture of despair. We were losing hope of resuscitation, and I sank on the floor beside Louis, who still knelt at the head of the lounge, when a faint sound came from her lips.
Although she was daily announcing to us her approaching dissolution "I die, mesdames I die of ennui" it seemed to me there were still signs, at times, of a vigorous resuscitation.
The subordination of education to municipal authority is a new and a risky experiment, but it is exactly the experiment which he wished to see.

Friday, resuscitation of drowning men. Sunday, a day of rest, except for the beach patrol, which at night never ceased, and which by day only ceased when the sky was clear of snow and fog. This night patrol would be divided into watches of four hours each at eight, twelve, and four.
He had a faint and fleeting sense of disquiet, which registered and was gone. "I hope so," he said vaguely, referring perhaps to the resuscitation of which the rector spoke. He drummed on the table. "I'll go so far as to say that I, too, think that the structure can be repaired. And I believe it is the duty of the men of influence all men of influence to assist.
Every cause that is in antagonism with its age commits suicide. Indeed, Monsieur, I trust this century will see one more great event, the end of this Parisian tyranny, and the resuscitation of provincial life; for I must repeat, my dear sir, that your centralization, which was once an excellent remedy, is a detestable regimen!
