In a moral sense ,
lifeless denotes a lack of vital energy ;
inanimate ,
a lack of expression as to any feeling that may be possessed ;
dull implies a torpor of soul which checks all mental activity ;
dead supposes a destitution of feeling .
A person is said to be lifeless who has lost the spirits which he once had ;
he is said to be inanimate when he is naturally wanting in spirits ;
one is dull from an original deficiency of mental power ;
he who is dead to moral sentiment is wholly bereft of the highest attribute of his nature .
