But when it came to deceased's gold his money the bystanders exhibited an interest which was one of those touches of nature which certifies the universal kinship. Each man knew all about Twitchett's money, though no two agreed.
Methought it was not a very successful piece of work; for the plough was better sculptured than the man, and the man, though heavy and cloddish, was more effective than the goddess. Our guide informed us that an old man of ninety, who knew Burns, certifies, this statue to be very like the original.
If, as my Lord Ormond certifies, it be true that they are no older, it is very monstrous.
A will made in the presence of a notary is considered to be authentic; for the person's identity is established, the notary certifies that the testator was sane at the time, and there can be no possible dispute over the signature.

"My dear, you have planted me on a field where I am to expect the trumpet, and when it blows I shall be quit of my nerves, no more."
If, then, we grasp these two thoughts of absolute purity and of self-impartation as the very nature and property of God, John tells us that we grasp the kernel of the Gospel. And he thinks that men never will grasp them certainly unless a 'message' from God, a definite revelation in historical fact, certifies them.
The fish has an auditory cavity, which, though simple in itself, certifies the ordinary conviction of sound, but it is dull and imperfect; and perhaps all marine creatures have other means of communication. There is an instance, however, of musical sounds produced by marine animals, which seems to show an appreciation of harmony.
