"For! see you!" he would finish gravely, "He who has Truth Need fear no ruth." So, ever and always his hero came out of his trials scathless. And, by degrees, this faith in final good grew deep into both the boys' hearts, and showed in their very faces. "By my word!" said the Afghan sentry, whom chance one day sent to guard them. "Ye be a precious pair of Kings!"
So now he demanded, on the strength of his knightly word, that a horse should be given him from the ducal stables, and that he be permitted to go forth, free and scathless, to ride wherever it might please him. His sins were truly heavy upon him, and he would try and do better, with the help of God."
It was found that, beyond a few scratches, the Faith and the Hope had escaped scathless, but the Charity had suffered considerably. Besides a bad rip in the upper part of the gunwale, a small hole had been poked in her side below water, and her air-chamber was filling rapidly. "Come here, quick, uncle," cried Alf, in consternation, when he discovered this.
Where else would he have been suffered to attend and address the exhibition days of schools and colleges? where else, in God's green earth, have taken his pick of restaurants, ransacked the bill of fare, and departed scathless?

They for their part all perished in the wash of the sea, but the wave cast him on the keel of the ship out upon the coast, on the land of the Phaeacians that are near of kin to the gods, and they did him all honour heartily as unto a god, and gave him many gifts, and themselves would fain have sent him scathless home.
Moreover, to make it more certain that they would share the same fate, a stout iron chain was riveted to their collars of brass, and fastened them together. The chain as the symbol of their pledge of solidarity held them inseparable, scathless, wounded, or dead. On the way to our post in the battle, we beheld the Chief of the Hundred Valleys passing at the head of the Trimarkisia.
All this might such an one learn, and back to us come scathless: great would be his fame under heaven among all men, and a goodly gift will be given him.
