That which befalls me in my Lady's presence
Bars explanation intellectual.
I seem to see a lady wonderful
Spring forth between her lips, one whom no sense
Can fully tell the mind of,and one whence
Another, in beauty, springeth marvelous,
From whom a star goes forth and speaketh thus:
'Now my salvation is gone forth from thee.'"
Answer:
"Under the astonished, wide-eyed moon, with the fires casting strange shadows upon these towering figures, I am rather inclined to believe him."
Explanation:
The use of the words "astonished" and "wide-eyed" that are used to describe the non-human presence of the moon creates a feeling of wonder. It depicts a scene in which the moon is large (wide-eyed) and beautiful (astonished). This and the description of the fires and their shadows creates an almost magical scenario to help the reader envision what the narrator is seeing. The personification aids in this, allowing us to understand how the narrator <em>feels</em> as well (wonder).
The words "casting upon" can also be considered personification, but it is not relevant in this case.
The Tipping Point by Malcolm Gladwell is a book about how small actions at the right time, in the right place, and with the right people can create a "tipping point" for anything from a product to an idea to a trend. Gladwell is not a sociologist, but he relies on sociological studies, and those from other disciplines within the social sciences to write articles and books that both the general public and social scientists find fascinating and worthwhile. According to Gladwell, the "tipping point" is "that magic moment when an idea, trend, or social behavior crosses a threshold, tips, and spreads like wildfire."
According to Gladwell, there are three variables that determine whether and when the tipping point for a product, idea, or phenomenon will be achieved: The Law of the Few, the Stickiness Factor, and the Power of Context.
