"i have seen the extreme vanity of this world: one hour i have been in health, and wealthy, wanting nothing. but the next hour in sickness and wounds, and death, having nothing but sorrow and affliction. before i knew what affliction meant, i was ready sometimes to wish for it. when i lived in prosperity, having the comforts of the world about me, my relations by me, my heart cheerful, and taking little care for anything, and yet seeing many, whom i preferred before myself, under many trials and afflictions, in sickness, weakness, poverty, losses, crosses, and cares of the world, i should be sometimes jealous least i should have my portion in this life, and that scripture would come to my mind, "for whom the lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth" (hebrews 12.6). but now i see the lord had his time to scourge and chasten me."

The major was a little man with upturned mustaches. he had been in the war in libya and wore two wound-stripes. he said that if the thing went well he would see that i was decorated. i said i hoped it would go well but that he was too kind. i asked him if there was a big dugout where the drivers could stay and he sent a soldier to show me. i went with him and found the dugout, which was very good. the drivers were with it and i left them there. what effect does hemingway’s limited use of adjectives have? it slows down the narration by interrupting the action. it makes the few descriptive words he does use more vivid and forceful. it makes the narrator seem powerless and insincere. it prevents the readers from filling in the details with their own experiences.
