a something of a broken line, uncertainty
I find myself at something of a loss for words, considering ₁
a something of the subject gleamed across me,
and a study of the situation, ₂
a something of a hinge ₃ —
a something of quiet satisfaction,
a certain restfulness; at times ₄
a something of restlessness,
and a superfluity of energy; who should say
Oh, ye sins of omission, how great will be your catalogue ₅
of which the titles might be with advantage exchanged,
for the philosophical history is a light romance,
and the romance is a heavy philosophy; ₄
a something of romance? Its pulses die
desperate. A something of. ₆
But there was a something of more solid worth attached to them ₇ —
a broken line, a roughness of texture, and a something of uncertainty in ₈
