Recently you wrote in a message to Ardith Hinton:              AH> But whether "Beauty" is seen there as the name of a       AH> person or "beauty" in the general sense or both, the       AH> article would still be omitted in English.... :-)              AS> This observation is most excellently demonstrated in       AS> Clark Ashton Smith's prose poem "The Demon, the Angel,       AS> and Beauty":              AS> http://eldritchdark.com/writings/       AS> prose-poetry-plays/10/print                      I found it very interesting... as, BTW, I did Mark Twain's comments       about the German language which you referenced here. Thank you. :-)                                   --- timEd/386 1.10.y2k+        * Origin: Wits' End, Vancouver CANADA (1:153/716)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 90/1 105/81 106/127 120/340 123/131 129/305 138/146       SEEN-BY: 153/105 250 757 802 7715 154/10 203/0 221/1 6 360 226/30       SEEN-BY: 227/114 702 229/101 424 426 664 700 1016 1017 240/1120 1634       SEEN-BY: 240/1895 2100 5138 5411 5824 5832 5853 8001 8002 8005 249/206       SEEN-BY: 249/317 261/38 280/5003 5006 282/1038 301/1 313/41 317/3       SEEN-BY: 320/219 322/757 335/364 342/11 200 371/52 382/147 423/81       SEEN-BY: 2454/119 3634/12 4500/1 5020/1042       PATH: 153/7715 757 221/6 1 280/5003 240/1120 5832 229/426           |
