Job # 3- words, words, words

1.  Acclivity- "The other bank of the stream was open ground--a gentle acclivity topped with a stockade of vertical tree trunks..."(I)


2.  Chafed- "...and he chafed under the inglorious restraint..."(II)


3.  Ramification- "These pains appeared to flash along well defined lines of ramification and to beat with an inconceivably rapid periodicity."(III)


4.  Eddies- "...humming of the gnats that danced above the eddies of the stream..."(III)


5.  Embrasure- "...with a single embrasure through which protruded the muzzle of a brass cannon commanding the bridge."(I)
