"Write an essay on one of the following terms in which your purpose shall be to reach a satisfactory definition. On the way to the final definition record all your trail definitions, and include all of the illustrations, examples, distinctions, exceptions that have come to you. A good beginning is the criticism of the dictionary definition, or of what is generally understood by the term.” --from Scott and Denney’s Paragraph-Writing (1909)
