Consciousness and the word are almost as closely united as thought and the word. Almost not quite; in spite of its inexpressive speech, the narrow house is aware and sensitive beyond, as it were, its poor power. But as to the whole disparity between the destiny and the nature, we know it to be general. Life is great that is trivially transmitted; love is great that is vulgarly experienced.
One talks trivially of a face like parchment, but this old man's face was so wrinkled that it was like a parchment loaded with hieroglyphics. The lines of his face were so deep and complex that one could see five or ten different faces besides the real one, as one can see them in an elaborate wall-paper.
Olva broke out suddenly. "After all not such a bad way to die swift enough. I don't suppose Carfax valued life especially." "Oh! he enjoyed it enjoyed it like anything. And that it should be taken so trivially, for no reason at all.
If anybody would only contrive some kind of a lever that one could thrust in among the works of this horrid automaton and check them, or alter their rate of going, what would the world give for the discovery? From half a dime to a dime, according to the style of the place and the quality of the liquor, said the young fellow whom they call John. You speak trivially, but not unwisely, I said.

And then, as they were both confronted by the miserable end of it all, and realized that there was no way out of it, he said: "Perhaps I ought not to appear to be too trivially curious, but I confess to a desire to know why you have done all this. You must have known, if you kept on, just what the end would be. Of course, nobody expects a woman to use her reason.
The Tennysonian poet does indeed mention trivialities, but he mentions them when he wishes to speak trivially; Browning mentions trivialities when he wishes to speak sensationally. Now this sense of the terrible importance of detail was a sense which may be said to have possessed Browning in the emphatic manner of a demoniac possession.
