If the voice of instinct is not strengthened by habit it soon dies, the heart is still-born. From the outset we have strayed from the path of nature. There is another by-way which may tempt our feet from the path of nature.
Number Seven saw nothing but the folly and weakness of the "rhyming cranks," as he called them. He thought the fellow that I had described as blubbering over his still-born poems would have been better occupied in earning his living in some honest way or other. He knew one chap that published a volume of verses, and let his wife bring up the wood for the fire by which he was writing.
Monet laid down his violin and blew out the dying flames; his face was ashen and as he grasped the branches of the tree his hand shook. A man in front rose to his feet. Flockwise the others followed his lead. Christmas was over!... Fred Starratt had a sense that it had died still-born. The next morning came wrapped in a dreadful silence. Men stood about in huddling groups and whispered.
I believe that girls ought to enjoy their youths in a wholesome way." "I do, too," said John, heartily, Kismine was cheerful again. She smiled at him, and a still-born tear dripped from the comer of one blue eye. "I like you," she whispered intimately. "Are you going to spend all your time with Percy while you're here, or will you be nice to me? Just think I'm absolutely fresh ground.
The afterbirth drops through the floor and is eaten by dogs or pigs. The still-born child is wrapped in a mat and placed in a hollow tree. The mother may work in five days.

In cases of divorce the children may follow either parent according to agreement.
Miss Goodwin nodded and gave me the still-born affirmative of politeness. Her English mind expressed itself willing to have exonerated the rash great lady for visiting a dying lover, but he was not the same person now that he was on his feet, consequently her expedition wore a different aspect: my not dying condemned her.
"Women" she thought, and wondered what Sanders and her gentleman did in THAT line, one eyelid sinking perceptibly as she mused, for she was the mother of nine three still-born and one deaf and dumb from birth. "Objective something," said Bonamy; and "common ground" and something else all very long words, she noted.
Syphilis in either sex is a distinct bar to marriage; first, the party married is sure to contract the disease, even though it may have been supposed to have been cured. Fortunately, the children of such marriages are generally still-born; still, they do sometimes live, and are most pitiable and sickly objects.
But we could not land. We staid all day and looked, we abused the man who invented quarantine, we held half a dozen mass-meetings and crammed them full of interrupted speeches, motions that fell still-born, amendments that came to nought and resolutions that died from sheer exhaustion in trying to get before the house. At night we set sail.
Death is a birth, the truth of which will more forcibly appeal to our minds when we reflect also that birth is a death." "How can that be, except for the still-born?" queried the astrologer. The hakeem raised a hand deprecating the interruption. "Nay, follow me in my argument," he continued quietly. "If death is a birth, then is a birth truly death.
