D.could imprison him but could never confine his soul.

In this passage, Thoreau says that "they could not reach [him]" so instead they "punish [his] body". To punish his body the state puts him into prison.

He does not think that the state can force him to pay the poll tax, and since he talks about the punishment of his body and not others, we know that the state will not imprison others.
