PREPOSITIONS — CONJUNCTIONS 49
IV, 36, ... lips where//? lie hath no power . . .
86, And Iseult worn with watch, long held on pain
Sometimes, the motive may be supposed to have been
a desire of deepening the strength of another word:
IV, 45, ... and his heart
Yearned on her . . .
81, As a cloud shuddering dies into the sun.
Yearn on, however, is found in the Bible and so
might form a connecting link between these two motives.
§ 9. Conjunctions.
Here also the scope of my work does not include
an exhaustive freatment of the subject: I shall have to
content myself with some general remarks on the archaic use
of conjunctions.
That is not unfrequently used where modern
English demands a causal conjunction [cf. Franz, § 400],
I, 42, You would praise me at least that my soul all through
Clove to you . . .
IV, 54, [she] Who loved me that I brought her to her doom.
From the grammar of Elizabethan literature Swinburne
also borrowed the use of as for as if, though this a rare
feature of his language.
III, 128, ... a shrill-winged sound comes flying
North, as of wild souls crying . . .
Or as the old year’s heart, stricken . . .
Broke, breaking with the sea.
The following instance shows a probably archaic
change of construction.
IV, 85, Far as God sunders earth from heaven above,
So far was my love born beneath his love . . .
Archaically Swinburne also uses so for if (only).
