...looking as radiant as her father and sporting a jeweled gold ring on the third finger of her left hand. A gift from her current beau, Actor George Hamilton, who had also joined the family for the weekend, the ring, White House aides averred, stood for "friendship," not connubial intent...
...oddities are permitted in sonnets, for example, because they fulfill certain expectations, while the aesthetic order of a poem like Lycidas, random as it may seem today, is regular in terms of its formal cause: the genre.

Died. Pierre J. Huss, 63, longtime Hearst byliner who catalogued the Third Reich from Hitler's early rise to the final justice of Niirnberg, at first failing to recognize the true Nazi intent and reporting, one month after the invasion of Poland and seven months before the blitzkrieg through Belgium and The Netherlands, that Germany had "no aim to wage a war of offense," but later scooping fellow newsmen on the Hitler-Eva Braun suicide pact and becoming one of the best spotters of Communist subterfuge during a 20-year stint at the United Nations; of a heart attack...
