925 | long | ||
926 | first | ||
927 | sentence | ||
928 | of | ||
929 | the | ||

1040 | almost | ||
1041 | without | ||
1042 | noticing | ||

1061 | of | ||
1062 | the | ||

1072 | a | ||

1087 | even | ||
1088 | if | ||
1089 | the | ||
1090 | author | ||

1097 | show | ||
1098 | don't | ||
1099 | tell | ||
1100 | showing | ||
1101 | in | ||
1102 | prose | ||
1103 | inherently | ||
1104 | involves | ||
1105 | more | ||
1106 | telling | ||
1107 | than | ||
1108 | poetry | ||
1109 | does | ||
1110 | as | ||
1111 | poetry | ||
1112 | communicates | ||
1113 | a | ||
1114 | feeling | ||

1116 | this | ||
1117 | definition | ||
1118 | may | ||
1119 | be | ||
1120 | broad | ||
1121 | enough | ||
1122 | to | ||
1123 | include | ||
1124 | certain | ||
1125 | dance | ||
1126 | performances | ||
1127 | or | ||
1128 | paintings | ||
1129 | but | ||
1130 | that's | ||
1131 | okay | ||
1132 | i'm | ||
1133 | of | ||
1134 | the | ||
1135 | opinion | ||
1136 | that | ||
1137 | the | ||
1138 | more | ||
1139 | useful | ||
1140 | genre | ||
1141 | distinctions | ||
1142 | are | ||
1143 | those | ||
1144 | which | ||
1145 | describe | ||

1147 | thing | ||
1148 | technically | ||
1149 | verse | ||
1150 | for | ||
1151 | example | ||
1152 | or | ||
1153 | lyrical | ||
1154 | poetry | ||
1155 | is | ||

1157 | a | ||
