There is often so direct a connection between sin and suffering that the most hardened and insensible do not dream of denying that their pain and misery are self-Inflicted.
"The Expositor's Bible: The Gospel of St. John, Vol. I"
Marcus Dods
He has forgotten to tell the court how he came by that scar above his temple,-yet he makes the statement that he himself Inflicted such a wound on the head of Richard Kildene-the omission is remarkable in so clever an actor.
"The Eye of Dread"
Payne Erskine
The wind, which came persistently from the west-now strong, now feeble, but always sharp-Inflicted a pain to which we never became accustomed.
"My Attainment of the Pole"
Frederick A. Cook
