He was not now the same man that had conducted the case during the past two days and a half.

Some great change had passed over him.

There was no longer abstraction, indifference, or apparent boredom, or disdain, or distant stare.

He was human, intimate and eager, yet concentrated and impelling: he was quietly, unnoticeably drunk.

His first words caused a new feeling in the courtroom.

He was a new presence; the personality had a changed significance.
