"You don't want to marry her, then?" asks the chaplain. "What's that to you, sir? I've promised her, and an Esmond a Virginia Esmond mind that Mr. What's-your-name Sampson has but his word!" The sentiment was noble, but delivered by Harry with rather a doubtful articulation. "Mind you, I said a Virginia Esmond," continued poor Harry, lifting up his finger. "I don't mean the younger branch here.
When we emerge from this necessary field of labor, we come to those functions peculiar to the proper brain. Here all is continual action. Thought, imagination, will, the conflicting passions, language, and even articulation, claim their first impulse from the nervous centre. The idlest reverie, as well as the most profound study, taxes the brain.
And then, borne across its bare barren bosom, like its own articulation, came faintly the feeble wail of a new-born babe. The doctor hurried ahead in the darkness.
If anything ever happens to me, and Joe Wylie is set to navigate this ship, then you may say your prayers. He isn't fit to sail a wash-tub across a duck-pond. But I'll tell you what it is," added this worthy, with more pomposity than neatness of articulation, "here's a respeckable passenger brought me a report; do my duty to m' employers, and take a look at the well."
Voice-color being largely determined by the resonance-cavities, the articulation of consonants in the resonance-cavity of the mouth covers the open process of vowel-formation and gives color to the resultant word and tone. Thus, when "love" is sung, although l is not a strong consonant but one of a small group called subvocals, it is sufficient to cover and color the open o production.
Knowledge may be so truly enriched by it that knowledge, in an ideal sense, only begins when dialectic has given some articulation to being. Without dialectic an animal might follow instinct, he might have vivid emotions, expectations, and dreams, but he could hardly be said to know anything or to guide his life with conscious intent.
It was a strange question to put, for the girl had not signified that she wished the teacher to come to her. "Nothing," she said. "I thought I could make you come." The girl spoke in a low tone, a kind of half-whisper. She did not lisp, yet her articulation of one or two consonants was not absolutely perfect. "Where did you get that flower, Elsie?" said Miss Darley.
He cupped his hands over his mouth and bellowed through the doorway, "Hey!" There was a startled grunt within, a deep, heavy voice and a thick articulation. Presently a huge man came into the doorway and leaned there, his figure filling it. There was nothing freakish about his build. He was simply over-normal in bulk, from the big head to the heavy feet.
The following report of twelve favorable cases is taken from a record of sixty-two cases. The favorable ones are reported, chiefly because there are now enough reports on record of such cases which have terminated fatally. Case 1. A gray gelding used as a saddle pony received a horizontal wire cut laying completely bare the scapulohumeral articulation.
Together with the articulation of the routes, important mechanical changes and reconstruction programmes completely transformed the American railroad system. The former haphazard character of each road is evidenced by the fact that in Civil War days there were eight different gages, with the result that it was almost impossible for the rolling stock of one line to use another.
