"Well, doc.!" Edward Henry greeted him. "So you're in full blast again!" observed the doctor, using a metaphor invented by the population of a district where the roar of furnaces wakens the night. "No!" Edward Henry protested, as an invalid always will. "I'm only just keeping an eye on one or two pressing things." "Of course he's in full blast!" said Nellie with calm conviction.
Terrified at this strife, and the crashing of boughs or rustling of thickets which they hear beneath them, the monkeys on the highest branches set up discordant cries of terror on every side. The din soon wakens the parrots and other birds which fill the woods, they instantly scream in the most violent way, and erelong the whole forest is in an uproar.
It is in virtue of his own desires and curiosities that any man continues to exist with even patience, that he is charmed by the look of things and people, and that he wakens every morning with a renewed appetite for work and pleasure.
Wouldst thou teach me the truth? Don't take the trouble! I wish not, Through thee, the thing to observe, but to see thee through the thing. Thee would I choose as my teacher and friend. Thy living example Teaches me, thy teaching word wakens my heart unto life. Was it always as now? This race I truly can't fathom. Nothing is young but old age; youth, alas! only is old.
But when that second book comes out, and does not fail, they begin to look about them; envy wakens, malice begins. And all the old school gentlemen who have retired on their pensions of renown regard him as an intruder: then the sneer, then the frown, the caustic irony, the biting review, the depreciating praise.

Behind the veil of our human conventions power is constant as ever, and to perceive the fact is to have the divining rod-to walk clear of shams. He is the teacher who shows where power exists: he is the leader who wakens and forms it. Why have I unfailingly succeeded? I never doubted!
We cannot understand the Biblical "salvation" unless we have fathomed, at least, the shoaler experiences of these saintly souls of old, and know some little of the depths of sin. The Bible wakens in the breast of man an ethical passion for the ideal and eternal law, which, apart from early Buddhism, has no parallel in history. The prophets are aflame with the ardors of this sacred enthusiasm.
But if they do it is not at all because they are afraid." We went on, until some five of the nine miles had been traversed. I have said before that the activity at the front commences only with the falling of night. During the day the zone immediately back of the trenches is a dead country. But at night it wakens into activity.
Hell's flame! is there anything smaller than the self-esteem of a man who by some infernal quirk of his nature turns his back on his most manifest duty leaves the blood of his blood and the skin of his skin to perish for want of his guidance and encouragement, and wakens at morning to find it no black nightmare but the horrible fact?
