Suppose we make a critical examination of one of the repudiated plates.

"How many of our serfs have died since the last census revision?"
"How many of them have died? Why, a great many." The bailiff hiccoughed, and slapped his mouth lightly after doing so. "Yes, I imagined that to be the case," corroborated Manilov. "In fact, a VERY great many serfs have died." He turned to Chichikov and repeated the words. "How many, for instance?" asked Chichikov. "Yes; how many?" re-echoed Manilov. "HOW many?" re-echoed the bailiff. "Well, no one knows the exact number, for no one has kept any account."

"Well, but how about the other chap's testimony--I mean that young doctor: what was his name? Ned Ranney.

What would my word have availed that it was Thorn, when there was nobody to corroborate it? And the discharged gun, mine, was a damnatory proof against me."英文原著 · 《East Lynne》
Not unfrequently it is the lot of the philosophers to contend against the doctrines of the vulgar, but when it happens, as in the case of Ptolemy's researches, that the doctrines of the vulgar are corroborated by philosophical investigation which bear the stamp of the highest authority, it is not to be wondered at that such doctrines should be deemed well-nigh impregnable. In this way we may, perhaps, account for the remarkable fact that the theories of Ptolemy held unchallenged sway over the human intellect for the vast period already mentioned.英文原著 · 《Great Astronomers》
