Examples

“It is therefore the shallowest sophistry to contend, that because this quality is personified, or used in a compellatory form, it is therefore used as an honorary title. And as, in the same age, the existence of honorary titles is without example or proof, and the form of compellation by characteristic qualities thus generally prevalent; it is palpably to oppose every sound principle of logic, to dispute, that the contested term is not used as a quality, but employed as a title.”
