The lad who thus finds himself in this worshipful but woful company is himself of noble and knightly lineage. This we learn from the recital of his history, but also from the bright, incisive, militant, chivalresque music associated with him: But he has been reared in a wilderness, far from courts and the institutions of chivalry and in ignorance of the world lying beyond his forest boundaries.
The local celebrity of Sir Ralph and Sir Peter, Silly Will and Captain Tom the Tailor, has vanished, and Defoe's hurried and formless lines, incisive as their vivid force must have been, are not redeemed from dulness for modern readers by the few bright epigrams with which they are besprinkled. Defoe's first business catastrophe happened about 1692.
He was conscious only of a yearning to find some quiet place where there was shade along a sea beach, and there to lie down and die happily. About noon Mr. Grady, who had for some purpose gone "back," resumed his seat at the author's side and, between incisive criticism shouted through his megaphone, suggested, in the contrast of a conversational tone, "Don't you ever look in your letter box?

Clark was on his feet at once and began to talk in a curt, incisive tone of great penetration. Behind it there moved a suggestion of something quite new to the folk of St. Marys.
He took out his handkerchief and wiped his eyes, imagining that he still had to deal with the gentle sensitive girl, upon whom he had imposed so long and so successfully. Beth watched him a moment with contempt, and then she laughed. "It is no use, friend Daniel," she said in her neat, incisive, straightforward way. "I am not going to take you seriously any more.
And to the man upon his left, "Will you kindly pass me the bread?" The man grinned in rare enjoyment, and, since he kept his eyes upon Brayley's glowering face, it was hardly strange that he handed Conniston a plate of stewed prunes instead. "Thank you," Conniston said to him, still ignoring Brayley. "But it was bread I said." "An' I said something!" cut in Brayley, his voice crisp and incisive.
He had a vision of great London surgeons if this one was a surgeon as incisive all round; so that he should perhaps after all not wholly escape the ironic attention of his own sex.
