An _impulse_ is a sudden mental motive or feeling which tends to _drive_ one _on_ to say or do something. 15. _Not_ liable to _punishment_; freedom from the bad consequences which usually result from an act; as, the magician could eat fire with _impunity_. 16. _In_ the _flesh_; as Christ was the _incarnate_ Son of God. 17. _Not mild_, but harsh and severe; as _inclement_ weather. 18. _Not known_; under an assumed name; disguised; as a nobleman traveling _incognito_. 21. A story is _incredible_ when it is _not_ capable of being _believed_; unworthy of belief. 26. _Indent._ To cut _into_ points like a row of _teeth_. 29. _Infant._ A young babe (_not_ yet able to _speak_). 35. _Insect._ A small animal apparently _cut into_ segments. 40. _Invert._ To _turn_ the outside _in_; to place in a contrary way. #ob# = against, in the way of.
