“
[39]
Words may have the same
inflexion or termination or be placed in various
antitheses, our language may rise by gradations to a
climax, or a number of words may be placed together
in asyndeton without connecting particles. Or we
may omit something, while making clear the reason
for such omission, or correct ourselves with apparent
censure of our carelessness, may utter exclamations of
admiration or grief, or introduce the same word
repeatedly in different cases.”
