Romance, pathos, fun, & logic

Romance and pathos and fun and logic all welded together. This is a phrase i came across in a book by William Lee Miller called Lincoln's Virtues. It was something he quoted from the Reverend Mr. Gulliver of Norwich, Conn. commenting to Linclon regarding the illustrations used in a speech he'd given.



Anyway,
It is a thought that nearly perfectly captures the ideal quality of the persuasive. It is what i want to learn, how to couch all expression.
