Until about the fifth year a child does not know that he is imagining; between the ages of four and six the imaginative period is at its height, and there begins to appear a sort of undercurrent of consciousness that it is all make-believe, and this heightens the pleasure of trying to make it seem real.
It was reported that Leary took part in a council of war, and promised to join with his broadside in the next attack.

And this heightens the extraordinary character of what I have now to tell.
This last designation shows what David counted God's chief gift to him, not his crown, but his harp.

If the smile does not alter the face, then the face is an ordinary one.
If you will stew the apple, he says, instead of baking it, by all means leave the skin on. It improves the color and vastly heightens the flavor of the dish. The apple is a masculine fruit; hence women are poor apple-eaters. It belongs to the open air, and requires an open-air taste and relish.
Every mile of the road heightens the flavour of the viands we expect at the end of it.
He takes indeed a line here and a colour there; but he softens this and heightens that; so that none but he can well discover any trace of Homer's noble head in yonder sightless beggar, or Juno's queenly form in the Welsh woman trudging with her strawberry load to Covent Garden market.
