It was, indeed as Dryden pointed out in a passage quoted above one of the foibles of our easy-going ancestors to treat character as practically reversible when the time approached for ringing down the curtain. The same convention survives to this day in certain forms of drama. Even Ibsen, in his earlier work, had not shaken it off; witness the sudden ennoblement of Bernick in Pillars of Society.
"I warned you, remember the change isn't completely reversible. Your hands will always look strange. The fingers had to be lengthened, for instance. I wanted to make you as safe as possible among the Lhari. I think you'll pass anything but an X-ray. Just be careful not to break any bones." He gave Bart a package. "This is the Lhari training tape.
Elmer loafed around the cook camp and if the meat supply happened to run low the cook would put the dog out the door and say, "Bring in a moose." Elmer would run into the timber, catch a moose and bring it in and repeat the performance until, after a few minutes work, the cook figured he had enough for a mess and would call the dog in. Sport, the reversible dog was really the best hunter.
The discoveries of Sainte-Claire Deville have brought many chemical phenomena into a similar category, and reactions such as solution, which used to be formerly the type of an irreversible phenomenon, may now often be effected by sensibly reversible means.
No more relation could he discover between the steam and the electric current than between the Cross and the cathedral. The forces were interchangeable if not reversible, but he could see only an absolute fiat in electricity as in faith.
These, the gallant Native Officer proceeded to tie upon his arms putting them upside down, as is the custom of the native of India when dealing with anything in any wise reversible. Mr. Ross-Ellison approached the table, showed his name on the programme and asked for his number 66. "Tie these on," said he returning to his friend.
When sent through glass tubes filled with rarefied gases, sometimes called "Geissler tubes," they elicit glows of many colours, vieing in beauty with the fleeting tints of the aurora polaris, which, indeed, is probably a similar effect of electrical discharges in the atmosphere. The action of the induction is reversible.
A Solid-bar "Link-Valve Motion," especially valuable for the larger class of Marine Steam-Engines. Steam Puddling Patent. This was the "pioneer" of the Bessemer process. See Bessemer correspondence, p. 354 A Reversible Rolling Mill without Fly-wheel.
You take a set of actions and relations and repeat it as it is, or turn it upside down, or transfer it bodily to another set with which it partially coincides all these being processes that consist in looking upon life as a repeating mechanism, with reversible action and interchangeable parts.
There was nothing else, however, for them to do, and so without a word of complaint each kept at his task. Dawn found them at the entrance to Grand Bay, the largest body of water in the entire river. From here a long close-hauled tack would bring them to the Narrows, a rocky gorge-like formation leading to the noted Reversible Falls below.
