Inure:
(v) : to become accustomed to something unpleasant by prolonged exposure; to take effect, or to benefit someone. In property law, the term means "to vest". For example, Jim buys a beach house that includes the right to travel across the neighbor's property to get to the water. That right of way is said, cryptically, "to inure to the benefit of Jim"

The worms are inure~d to the early bird's serial-killings, as those worms who'd tell have heard the toll-of-the-bell.
