These may be the chief and obvious results but the important things to consider are the means by which these results are produced. The speaker does not desire merely to repeat his thought in the same words but to vary the form and wording. By these means he may impress the thought still more strongly on the listener but the desire in his own mind is for variety. If he has expr...
