We may be pardoned for again emphasising the fact that it is not only for his discoveries and inventions that Watt is to be credited, but also for the manual ability displayed in giving to these "airy nothings of the brain, a local habitation and a name," for his greatest idea might have remained an "airy nothing," had he not been also the mechanician able to produce it in the concrete.
And he related the story of David Jost's midnight experience, carefully emphasising every point connected with his own signet-ring. As he proceeded with the narration, Perousse's face grew livid, once or twice he clenched his hand nervously, but he said nothing till he had heard all. "Your ring, you say, had never left the King's possession?" "So the King himself assured me, this very afternoon."
This industrial training, emphasising, as it does, the idea of economic production, is gradually bringing the South to the point where it is feeding itself. After the war, what profit the South made out of the cotton crop it spent outside of the South to purchase food supplies, meat, bread, canned vegetables, and the like, but the improved methods of agriculture are fast changing this custom.
To this same year is attributed a poem called the Masquerade, which need only be noticed as again emphasising its author's lifelong war against the evils of his time. The Masquerade is a satire on the licentious gatherings organised by the notorious Count Heidegger, Master of the Revels to the Court of George II.
She had a deeply-rooted conviction that there was something indecent about an ostrich egg probably its size, emphasising that nakedness which nothing exhibits so triumphantly as an egg, had something to do with it. Mrs. Killigrew was nothing if not "nice," but she was something much better than that too.
"A young widow," I repeated, emphasising one of Quinby's epithets and ignoring the other. "I mean, of course, she's a good deal older than Evers." "And her name?" "A Mrs. Lascelles." I nodded. "Do you happen to know anything about her, Captain Clephane?" "I can't say I do." "No more does anybody else," said Quinby, "except that she's an Indian widow of sorts." "Indian!"
When it was ended, he quietly proceeded to move off to another part of the playground without vouchsafing any reply. But Philpot, who was on his mettle, prevented this manoeuvre by a sudden and dexterous grip of the arm, and drew him back into the circle. "Do you hear what I say to you?" said he, roughly, emphasising his question with a shake.
For several moments, he paced the floor in silence; then he stopped suddenly short in front of the young man, and, with legs apart, one hand at his back, he said in a tone which wavered between being brutal and confidential, emphasising his words with a series of smart pencil-raps on his hearer's shoulder: "Let me tell you something: if I were not of the opinion that you had ability, I should not detain you this evening.
I suppose the special life that arises about a given nucleus of feeling, by emphasising some of the relations which that feeling has in the world, might be abolished if a greater emphasis were laid on another set of its relations, starting from some other nucleus. We must remember that these selections, according to M. Bergson, are not apperceptions merely. They are creative efforts.
He looked at her, with his colourless candour, still in his place; she moved about again, a little, emphasising by her unrest her declaration of her tranquillity. He was as silent, at first, as if he had taken her answer, but he was not to keep it long. "What do you make of it that, by your own show, Charlotte couldn't tell her all? What do you make of it that the Prince didn't tell her anything?
