Aurora Dawn! Has any of you enough of an ear for English to realise what
a crime against the language is that (trade) name? Aurora is the dawn. The
redundancy should assail your ears like the shriek of a bad hinge. But you are so
numbed by habit that it conveys no offence. So it is with all you barbarities.
Shakespeare used the rhyming of 'double' and bubble' to create two immortal
lines in Macbeth. You use it to help sell your Dubl-Bubl Shampoo, and you have
no slightest sense of doing anything wrong. Should someone tell you that
language is the Promethean fire that lifts man above the animals and that you are
smothering the flame in mud, you would stare. You are staring. Let me tell you
without images, then, that you are cheapening speech until it is ceasing to be an
honest method of exchange, and that the people, not, knowing that the English in
a radio commercial is meant to be a lie and the English in the President's speech
which follows, a truth, will in the end fall into a paralysing scepticism in which all
utterance will be disbelieved.
