Examples

“On one side hung a very large oil-painting so thoroughly besmoked, and every way defaced, that in the unequal cross-lights by which you viewed it, it was only by diligent study⟳ and a series of systematic visits to it, and careful inquiry of the neighbors, that you could any way arrive⟳ at an understanding of its purpose.”
