Commenting upon its attributes discursively, it was at the period of its original initiation in London my privilege to be present; nor must I omit to graphically allude to my belief, not choosing to be otherwise than candid with my first impressions, that I had never listened to anything which so rapturously illustrated the spirit of those soul-elevating times; even to experiencing a passing pang, since the perplexing principles or established secrets of decorative or Æsthetic art, as understood by me, had so curiously been cajoled or interwoven into the very sanctuary of Classic Music.
But there is a great difference between the two views. A work of art which is broad enough to embrace philosophy is not the same thing as a work of art which is embraced by philosophy, and is a complete product of the philosophical imagination. Meredith extolled the intellect, which works discursively; Coleridge extolled the reason, which apprehends intuitively.
Presently he resumed, discursively: "'I knoo this 'ouse years ago, before Polensky's time, when old Durdler had it. Durdler used to do the smashin' lay up on the second floor and me and two or three nippers used to work for 'im plantin' the snide, yer know. 'E was a rare leery un, was Durdler.

Polly felt taciturn, but the events of the day had stirred the mind of Uncle Pentstemon to speech. And so he spoke, discursively and disconnectedly, a little heedless of his listener as wise old men will. "They do say," said Uncle Pentstemon, "one funeral makes many. This time it's a wedding.

Part 4 They sat with tea and strawberries and cream before them at a little table in front of the pavilion in Regent's Park. Her confession was still unmade. Manning leaned forward on the table, talking discursively on the probable brilliance of their married life.
There is little regularity of method in the development of his argument; that he leaves to more anxious and elaborate masters of style. For himself he is content to start from a bold and clear statement of his own opinion, and proceeds buoyantly and discursively to engage and scatter his enemies as they turn up, without the least fear of being able to fight his way back to his original base.
"Of course I am, John," she answered. "I couldn't think of being occupied with any one else just now!" And then they began to talk discursively and, as it were, at large. John seemed to be fetching a wide compass.
Although I was really there for knowing too much about the "blessed book" already, I read it right through in the first month, and again in the second, besides reading it discursively afterwards. And still, I am a sincerely impenitent Freethinker!
The instant's by-play had caused Thayer to lose the next words of his host; but Lorimer's laugh was ringing out with such infectious mirth that the guests were laughing with him, although with obvious reluctance to show their merriment. Lorimer babbled on discursively. "I knew 'em well. They were having har' times to get on, an' Arlt here could n' begin to carry the load.
And in like manner, that is, 'per intuitum intellectualem', must all the mysteries of faith be contemplated; they are intelligible 'per se', not discursively and 'per analogiam'. For the truths are unique, and may have shadows and types, but no analogies.
