With the aid of drawings made by a visitor long years ago, before Lord Elgin had thought of tearing them down, the two great pediments have been ingeniously reconstructed in miniature, showing a multitude of figures attending on the birth of the city’s tutelary goddess, as she sprang full armed from the head of Zeus assisted by the blow of Hephaistos’s hammer, or the concourse of deities that umpired the contest between Athena and Poseidon for the land. — from Greece and the Ægean Islands by Philip Sanford Marden
largos y asquerosos brazos Le enreda
El carïado, lívido esqueleto, 1555 Los fríos, largos y asquerosos brazos, Le enreda en tanto en apretados lazos, Y ávido le acaricia en su ansiedad; Y con su boca cavernosa busca La boca a Montemar, y a su mejilla 1560 La árida, descarnada y amarilla Junta y refriega repugnante faz. — from El Estudiante de Salamanca and Other Selections by José de Espronceda
This tab, called Hiding in Plain Sight,
shows you passages from notable books where your word is accidentally (or perhaps deliberately?)
spelled out by the first letters of consecutive words.
Why would you care to know such a thing? It's not entirely clear to us, either, but
it's fun to explore! What's the longest hidden word you can find? Where is your name hiding?
