Has
LIVESUVUM
For sixty years she had prayed against remembering him
and against losing her soul in the deep pit of hell, and now
the two things were mingled in one and the thought of him
was a smoky cloud from hell that moved and crept in her
head. Wounded vanity, Ellen, ... Don't let your wounded
vanity get the upper hand of you. Plenty of girls get jilted.
- "The Jilting of Granny Weatherall" by Katherine Anne
Porter
But though I have wept and fasted, wept and prayed,
Though I have seen my head (grown slightly bald) brought
in upon a platter,
Tam no prophet - and here's no great matter;
T have seen the moment of my greatness flicker,
And I have seen the eternal Footman hold my coat, and
snicker,
And in short, I was afraid.
- "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock," by T. S. Eliot.

The major was a little man with upturned mustaches. he had been in the war in libya and wore two wound-stripes. he said that if the thing went well he would see that i was decorated. i said i hoped it would go well but that he was too kind. i asked him if there was a big dugout where the drivers could stay and he sent a soldier to show me. i went with him and found the dugout, which was very good. the drivers were with it and i left them there. what effect does hemingway’s limited use of adjectives have? it slows down the narration by interrupting the action. it makes the few descriptive words he does use more vivid and forceful. it makes the narrator seem powerless and insincere. it prevents the readers from filling in the details with their own experiences.
