QUOTES . . .
“The host winked at me through his sherry glass.”
a typically jam packed sentence: there are at least two
people; there is a social structure (that of host and
guest); the mood of the host; a beverage.
Pope couplet: “When Ajax strives some rock’s vast
weight to throw/
the line too labors and the words move slow.”
it is very difficult to say this fast. one is forced to labor
through it; I imagine this is some kind of
onomatopoeia which probably has a name: the way it
reads reflects the contextual situation
hirsute - hairy
lapped - overtake
dither - be indecisive
contrapuntal - in counterpoint
virgules - slash
adieu - goodbye
slough - a swamp
dulpicitous - deceitful
