active vs. passive voice, or epithet?

[Ned Bedinger]

Yves--

Epithet is a new condition for me, thanks for drawing the distinction. I 
hope I understand it, but my literary legs are a bit wobbly.

The example you gave would have a different result if you'd made five 
identically-constructed sentences, each with one modifier of window.

Thanks,

--Ned
