Looking at her NP traces and pronominals of intimacy I felt unfamilar word clauses governing my heart, but resisted - ahh, the agony of theories! II. Even though her applications were restricted and the generative possibilities were less than limitless soon we began of series of transformations in which my NP clause was inserted into a postnomial antecedent: to my surprise, the result was a meaningful sentence. III. She was positively polyphonical! Still, I didn't mind: the English language has been murdered so much that lexical butchery is no longer a crime. Remembering her deep structures were unexposed and that syntactic climax was a possibility I mounted her primary clause in two sematic splits. Ah - the joys of proverbial fronting!
