Target lemma: so
Target surface form: so
Context:
A look at a Thursday night practice at St. Mary Abbot church in the Kensington district of London gives an idea of the work involved. Ten shirt-sleeved ringers stand in a circle, one foot ahead of the other in a prize-fighter's stance, each pulling a rope that disappears through a small hole in the high ceiling of the ringing chamber. No one speaks, and the snaking of the ropes seems to make as much sound as the bells themselves, muffled by the ceiling. Totally absorbed, the ringers stare straight ahead, using peripheral vision (they call it "rope-sight ") to watch the other ropes and thus time their pulls. Far above in the belfry, the huge bronze bells, mounted on wheels, swing madly through a full 360 degrees, starting and ending, surprisingly, in the inverted, or mouth-up position. Skilled ringers use their wrists to advance or retard the next swing, <t>so</t> that one bell can swap places with another in the following change. In a well-known detective-story involving church bells, English novelist Dorothy L. Sayers described ringing as a "passion that finds its satisfaction in mathematical completeness and mechanical perfection. "

*   Target lemma: "so"
    *   Target surface form: "so"
    *   Context: "Skilled ringers use their wrists to advance or retard the next swing, <t>so</t> that one bell can swap places with another in the following change."

    *   "Skilled ringers use their wrists to advance or retard the next swing, so that one bell can swap places with another in the following change."
    *   The phrase "so that" is used here.
    *   The purpose of using their wrists to advance or retard the swing is to enable one bell to swap places with another.
    *   This indicates a purpose or a result facilitated by the action.

    *   Sense 1: "to a very great extent or degree" (e.g., "so obvious") - No.
    *   Sense 2: "in a manner that facilitates" (e.g., "he observed the snakes so he could describe their behavior") - This fits perfectly. "So that" often introduces a purpose or a facilitating condition.
    *   Sense 3: "in such a condition or manner, especially as expressed or implied" (e.g., "remain so") - No.
    *   Sense 4: "to a certain unspecified extent or degree" (e.g., "go so far") - No.
    *   Sense 5: "in the same way; also" (e.g., "so was he") - No.
    *   Sense 6: "in the way indicated" (e.g., "hold the brush so") - No.
    *   Sense 7: "(usually followed by 'that') to an extent or degree as expressed" (e.g., "so tired that he could hardly stand") - This is the "so [adjective] that" construction. In the target sentence, "so" is not modifying an adjective; it's introducing a purpose clause ("so that one bell can swap...").
    *   Sense 8: "subsequently or soon afterward" (e.g., "and so he left") - No.
    *   Sense 9: "(used to introduce a logical conclusion) from that fact or reason or as a result" (e.g., "therefore") - While "so that" can sometimes be resultative, Sense 2 ("in a manner that facilitates") is a better fit for purpose/enablement.
    *   Sense 10: "in truth" (e.g., "indeed") - No.

    *   Target: "...use their wrists to advance or retard the next swing, so that one bell can swap places..."
    *   Sense 2: "in a manner that facilitates" (Example: "he observed the snakes so he could describe their behavior").
    *   Comparison: The ringers use their wrists (action) in a manner that facilitates (so that) the bells swapping places (goal/result). This matches Sense 2.

    *   Sense 7 is "so [adj/adv] that". (e.g., "so tired that"). Not the case here.
    *   Sense 9 is "therefore". (e.g., "It rained, so I stayed home"). While similar, "so that" specifically often denotes purpose/facilitation, which is exactly what Sense 2 describes.

    *   Sense 2: "in a manner that facilitates"
    *   Example: "he observed the snakes so he could describe their behavior"
    *   Context: "use their wrists... so that one bell can swap places"
    *   The structure "so that [clause]" is a classic marker for purpose/facilitation.

    *   Surrounding context: The text describes church bell ringing (change ringing) at St. Mary Abbot church. It mentions "huge bronze bells, mounted on wheels," "ringers," "belfry," and "ringing chamber."

    *   1: a hollow device made of metal that makes a ringing sound when struck (General definition of a bell).
    *   2: a push button at an outer door (doorbell).

    *   The context refers to the physical objects being rung in a church belfry ("huge bronze bells, mounted on wheels").
    *   The specific sentence says "one bell can swap places with another," referring to the physical bells (or the sequence of their sounds, but in the context of change ringing, it refers to the order in which the physical bells are rung).
    *   Sense 1 is the general definition of the physical object.
    *   Sense 9 is for a specific orchestral instrument (chimes/gong), which doesn't fit the church belfry context as well as the general "hollow device made of metal" (Sense 1).

    *   Sense 1: "a hollow device made of metal that makes a ringing sound when struck" - This fits perfectly.
    *   Sense 3: "the sound of a bell" - The sentence says "one bell can swap places with another," which refers to the objects (or their positions in the sequence), not the sound itself.
    *   Sense 9: "percussion instrument consisting of a set of tuned bells... used as an orchestral instrument" - These are church bells, not orchestral chimes.

    *   The target word "bell" refers to the physical bronze object in the belfry.
    *   Sense 1 is the correct match.

    *   16: blank area (space) - No.

    *   Sense 9 (particular portion of space occupied by something) vs. Sense 15 (item on a list or in a sequence).
    *   In change ringing, the "place" refers to the order in which the bells strike. The bells themselves don't physically move to a different location in the belfry (they are mounted on wheels and swing, but their relative positions in the tower are fixed). What changes is the *sequence* in which they reach the "up" position to strike.
    *   Therefore, "swap places" in this context means swapping their positions in the sequence of the "change."
    *   Sense 15: "an item on a list or in a sequence | synonyms=position | examples=in the second place; moved from third to fifth position". This matches perfectly.

    *   Sense 5: "the post or function properly or customarily occupied or served by another". This is more about roles/people.
    *   Sense 9: "the particular portion of space occupied by something". The bells aren't swapping physical locations in the tower.

    *   The context is "change ringing," where the goal is to ring the bells in different permutations (sequences).
    *   "Swap places" = swap positions in the sequence.
    *   Sense 15 is the best fit.

Context:
Ten shirt-sleeved ringers stand in a circle, one foot ahead of the other in a prize-fighter's stance, each pulling a rope that disappears through a small hole in the high ceiling of the ringing chamber. No one speaks, and the snaking of the ropes seems to make as much sound as the bells themselves, muffled by the ceiling. Totally absorbed, the ringers stare straight ahead, using peripheral vision (they call it "rope-sight ") to watch the other ropes and thus time their pulls. Far above in the belfry, the huge bronze bells, mounted on wheels, swing madly through a full 360 degrees, starting and ending, surprisingly, in the inverted, or mouth-up position. Skilled ringers use their wrists to advance or retard the next swing, so that one bell can swap places with another in the following change. In a well-known detective-story involving <t>church</t> bells, English novelist Dorothy L. Sayers described ringing as a "passion that finds its satisfaction in mathematical completeness and mechanical perfection. "Ringers, she added, are "filled with the solemn intoxication that comes of intricate ritual faultlessly performed. ""

    *   A belfry is part of a church building.
    *   Therefore, "church bells" refers to bells belonging to or located in a church building.

    *   Sense 1 (denomination) doesn't fit "bells".
    *   Sense 2 (building) fits perfectly. "Church bells" are bells of the church building.
    *   Sense 3 (service) doesn't fit "bells".
    *   Sense 4 (congregation) doesn't fit "bells".

    *   The target word "church" in "church bells" acts as an attributive noun modifying "bells". It describes the type of bells or where they are located.
    *   The location is the church building (Sense 2).

    *   7: get something for a specific purpose (No)
    *   8: make a discovery (No)
    *   9: make a discovery (No)
    *   10: obtain through effort (No)
    *   11: decide/declare (No)
    *   12: receive a specified treatment (abstract) - Synonyms: receive, get, obtain, incur. Example: "These aspects of civilization do not find expression or receive an interpretation."
    *   13: perceive oneself to be in a condition (No)
    *   14: recover (No)
    *   15: succeed in reaching; arrive at (Example: "The arrow found its mark")
    *   16: find oneself (No)

    *   Sense 12: "receive a specified treatment (abstract)". Example: "These aspects of civilization do not find expression..."
    *   Sense 15: "succeed in reaching; arrive at". Example: "The arrow found its mark".

    *   "Passion that finds its satisfaction in..."
    *   Does the passion "receive" satisfaction (Sense 12) or "reach" its satisfaction (Sense 15)?
    *   Comparing "find expression" (Sense 12) with "find satisfaction".
    *   "Find expression" means the expression is the way the thing is manifested or received.
    *   "Find satisfaction" means the satisfaction is achieved or obtained.
    *   Let's look at Sense 12 again: "receive a specified treatment (abstract)". "Find expression" is the key example.
    *   Let's look at Sense 15 again: "succeed in reaching; arrive at". "The arrow found its mark".

    *   "Find satisfaction" is very similar to "find expression". It's an abstract way of saying the passion is satisfied or finds its fulfillment.
    *   Sense 12's example "do not find expression" is almost a perfect parallel to "finds its satisfaction".

    *   Sense 12: receive, get, obtain (abstract).
    *   Sense 15: reach, arrive at.
    *   "Finds its satisfaction" means the passion is fulfilled/satisfied. This is an abstract state.

    *   Sense 12: "receive a specified treatment (abstract)".
    *   Sense 15: "succeed in reaching; arrive at".
    *   If I say "The passion finds its satisfaction", it's more like "The passion is satisfied" or "The passion receives satisfaction".
    *   Wait, "find its mark" (Sense 15) is about hitting a target. "Find its satisfaction" is more about an abstract quality being realized.
    *   Let's re-examine Sense 12: "receive a specified treatment (abstract)". "Find expression" fits this. "Find satisfaction" also fits this pattern (the passion receives/obtains satisfaction).

    *   Sense 12: "receive a specified treatment (abstract)". Example: "These aspects of civilization do not find expression or receive an interpretation".
    *   Sense 15: "succeed in reaching; arrive at". Example: "The arrow found its mark".
    *   "Find satisfaction" is more like "find expression" than "find its mark".

    *   Sense 12 is the best fit for abstract realizations like "find expression", "find satisfaction", "find a way". (Wait, "find a way" might be different, but "find expression" is the key).

    *   Sense 12: receive, get, obtain, incur.
    *   "Passion that finds its satisfaction" -> "Passion that receives/obtains its satisfaction". This fits.

Context:
Ten shirt-sleeved ringers stand in a circle, one foot ahead of the other in a prize-fighter's stance, each pulling a rope that disappears through a small hole in the high ceiling of the ringing chamber. No one speaks, and the snaking of the ropes seems to make as much sound as the bells themselves, muffled by the ceiling. Totally absorbed, the ringers stare straight ahead, using peripheral vision (they call it "rope-sight ") to watch the other ropes and thus time their pulls. Far above in the belfry, the huge bronze bells, mounted on wheels, swing madly through a full 360 degrees, starting and ending, surprisingly, in the inverted, or mouth-up position. Skilled ringers use their wrists to advance or retard the next swing, so that one bell can swap places with another in the following change. In a well-known detective-story involving church bells, English novelist Dorothy L.

*   Target word: "satisfaction"
    *   Context: "...English novelist Dorothy L. Sayers described ringing as a 'passion that finds its satisfaction in mathematical completeness and mechanical perfection.'"
    *   Meaning: The passion (for bell ringing) is fulfilled or finds its fulfillment/gratification in mathematical completeness and mechanical perfection.

    *   Sense 1: "the contentment one feels when one has fulfilled a desire, need, or expectation" (Focus on the *feeling* of contentment).
    *   Sense 2: "state of being gratified or satisfied" (Synonym: gratification).
    *   Sense 3: "compensation for a wrong" (Atonement/expiation).
    *   Sense 4: "(law) the payment of a debt or fulfillment of an obligation".
    *   Sense 5: "act of fulfilling a desire or need or appetite".

    *   The sentence says "a passion that finds its satisfaction in...".
    *   A "passion" (a strong desire or interest) finds its "satisfaction" (fulfillment/gratification).
    *   Is it the *feeling* of contentment (Sense 1)? Or the *act* of fulfilling (Sense 5)? Or the *state* of being gratified (Sense 2)?
    *   "Finds its satisfaction in [something]" usually refers to the fulfillment of the passion.
    *   Let's compare Sense 1, 2, and 5.
        *   Sense 1: Contentment felt.
        *   Sense 2: State of being gratified.
        *   Sense 5: Act of fulfilling a desire or need.
    *   In the phrase "passion that finds its satisfaction in mathematical completeness", the "satisfaction" is the fulfillment of that passion.
    *   Looking at Sense 5: "act of fulfilling a desire or need or appetite". A passion is essentially a strong desire.
    *   Looking at Sense 2: "state of being gratified or satisfied".
    *   Looking at Sense 1: "the contentment one feels when one has fulfilled a desire...".
    *   Wait, "finds its satisfaction in" often means the thing that satisfies the passion.
    *   Example for Sense 5: "the satisfaction of their demand for better services".
    *   Example for Sense 1: "the chef tasted the sauce with great satisfaction".
    *   Example for Sense 2: "dull repetitious work gives no gratification".
    *   In the context "passion that finds its satisfaction in mathematical completeness", the "satisfaction" is the fulfillment of the passion. This aligns most closely with Sense 5 (the act/process of fulfilling a desire/passion). However, it could also be the state of being gratified (Sense 2).
    *   Let's re-read: "passion that finds its satisfaction in mathematical completeness". This means the passion is satisfied by mathematical completeness.
    *   If we say "The passion found its satisfaction", it means the passion was fulfilled.
    *   Sense 5: "act of fulfilling a desire or need or appetite".
    *   Sense 2: "state of being gratified or satisfied".
    *   Sense 1: "the contentment one feels".
    *   Usually, "satisfaction" in the context of a "passion" refers to the fulfillment of that passion.
    *   Let's look at the phrasing again: "passion that finds its satisfaction in...". This is very similar to "finds its fulfillment in...".
    *   Sense 5 (act of fulfilling) fits "fulfillment" well.
    *   Sense 2 (state of being gratified) also fits.
    *   Sense 1 (contentment felt) is the result.
    *   Let's check the WordNet hierarchy if possible (mentally).
    *   Satisfaction (1) = contentment.
    *   Satisfaction (2) = gratification.
    *   Satisfaction (5) = fulfillment.
    *   "Passion finds its fulfillment in..." -> Sense 5.

    *   Sense 1: Contentment (feeling).
    *   Sense 2: Gratification (state).
    *   Sense 5: Fulfillment (act/process).
    *   "Passion that finds its satisfaction in mathematical completeness" -> The passion is fulfilled by the completeness. The "satisfaction" here is the fulfillment of the passion.

    *   Sense 5: "act of fulfilling a desire or need or appetite".
    *   A passion is a strong desire.
    *   The "satisfaction" of a passion is the act/process of fulfilling it.
    *   This seems the most precise fit for "finds its satisfaction in".

    *   Wait, let me double-check Sense 2: "state of being gratified or satisfied".
    *   If the passion "finds its satisfaction", it finds the state of being gratified? That sounds slightly off.
    *   If the passion "finds its fulfillment", it finds the act/process of being fulfilled.
    *   Let's look at Sense 1 again: "the contentment one feels when one has fulfilled a desire".
    *   Actually, "finds its satisfaction in" is a common idiom meaning "is satisfied by".
    *   If I say "He finds satisfaction in his work", I usually mean he feels contentment (Sense 1) or gratification (Sense 2).
    *   But the subject here is "passion", not "he". "A passion that finds its satisfaction in...".
    *   A passion cannot "feel" contentment. A passion is "satisfied" (fulfilled).
    *   Therefore, Sense 5 ("act of fulfilling a desire") is the most logical choice because the passion itself is the desire being fulfilled.

    *   Sense 1: Contentment (feeling) - Subject would be a person.
    *   Sense 2: Gratification (state) - Subject could be a person or a process.
    *   Sense 5: Fulfillment (act) - Subject is the desire/need being fulfilled.
    *   "Passion [desire] finds its satisfaction [fulfillment] in..." -> Sense 5.

    *   Sense 1: `mechanical%3:00:00::` - using (or as if using) mechanisms or tools or devices. Examples: "a mechanical process", "his smile was very mechanical". (Often implies automatic, rote, or lacking emotion/thought).

    *   The phrase is "mathematical completeness and mechanical perfection."
    *   The context describes the physical act of ringing bells (ropes, wheels, timing, physics of the swing).
    *   "Mechanical perfection" here refers to the precise, physical execution of the movement—the "mechanics" of the action.
    *   Sense 1 (automatic/rote) doesn't quite fit "perfection" in the sense of a skilled art, although "mechanical process" is an example. However, the context emphasizes the *skill* and *precision* of the physical system.
    *   Sense 2 (relating to machinery/tools) fits because the bells are mounted on wheels and operated by ropes (machinery).
    *   Sense 3 (relating to mechanics/physics) fits because it refers to the physical laws and precise movements governing the system.

    *   Sense 1 often implies "automatic" or "unthinking." While the ritual is "faultlessly performed," the focus is on the precision of the physical system.
    *   Sense 2 focuses on the *tools/machinery* themselves.
    *   Sense 3 focuses on the *principles of mechanics* (the science of motion and force).

    Looking at "mathematical completeness and mechanical perfection," the pairing suggests a focus on the structural/physical precision of the system. "Mechanical perfection" in the context of a complex physical task (like bell ringing) usually refers to the flawless execution of the physical movements (the mechanics).

    Let's re-evaluate Sense 1: "using (or as if using) mechanisms or tools or devices". Example: "a mechanical process".
    Let's re-evaluate Sense 2: "relating to or concerned with machinery or tools".
    Let's re-evaluate Sense 3: "relating to or governed by or in accordance with mechanics".

    In the context of "mathematical completeness and mechanical perfection," the author is contrasting/pairing the abstract (mathematical) with the physical/operational (mechanical). The "mechanical" part refers to the physical operation of the bells and the ringers' movements.

    Is it "relating to machinery" (Sense 2) or "governed by mechanics" (Sense 3)?
    The bells are machinery. The act of ringing them is a mechanical process.
    However, "mechanical perfection" in this context usually means the precision of the physical execution.

    Comparing Sense 1 and Sense 2:
    Sense 1: "a mechanical process" (like a machine).
    Sense 2: "mechanical design" (relating to machinery).

    If we look at the phrase "mechanical perfection," it often means the precision of a machine. Sense 1's example "a mechanical process" is very close.

    Wait, let's look at the synonyms for Sense 2: "mechanically skillful". This is very close to the "skilled ringers" mentioned in the text.

    Let's look at Sense 3 again: "relating to or governed by or in accordance with mechanics".

    Actually, "mechanical perfection" in the context of a physical skill often refers to the flawless execution of the physical movements (the mechanics of the body and the machine).

    Let's re-read the context: "mathematical completeness and mechanical perfection."
    Mathematical = abstract, logical, structured.
    Mechanical = physical, operational, precise.

    Sense 1: "using (or as if using) mechanisms or tools or devices".
    Sense 2: "relating to or concerned with machinery or tools".
    Sense 3: "relating to or governed by or in accordance with mechanics".

    If the "perfection" is in the *way* the bells are rung (the process), Sense 1 ("a mechanical process") fits well. If the "perfection" is in the *machinery* of the bells, Sense 2 fits. If the "perfection" is in the *physics* of the motion, Sense 3 fits.

    The quote is from Dorothy L. Sayers. She is describing the *act* of ringing. The "satisfaction" comes from the "mathematical completeness" (the sequence of changes) and the "mechanical perfection" (the precise physical execution of those changes).

    This sounds most like Sense 1 ("a mechanical process") or Sense 3 ("governed by mechanics"). However, Sense 1's "as if using mechanisms" often carries a connotation of being robotic or mindless, which doesn't fit "passion" and "solemn intoxication."

    Sense 2 ("relating to or concerned with machinery or tools") is a strong candidate because the bells and ropes are machinery.

    Sense 3 ("relating to or governed by or in accordance with mechanics") refers to the science of mechanics.

    Let's look at the examples again.
    Sense 1: "a mechanical process"
    Sense 2: "mechanical arts", "mechanical design"
    Sense 3: "the mechanical pressure of a strong wind"

    "Mechanical perfection" in the context of a physical skill is most often used to describe the precision of the physical movement, which is the application of mechanics.

    Wait, let's look at Sense 1 again: "using (or as if using) mechanisms or tools or devices".
    If the ringing is a "mechanical process," it fits Sense 1.

    Let's reconsider Sense 2: "relating to or concerned with machinery or tools".
    The bells are machinery. The perfection of the ringing involves the machinery.

    Let's reconsider Sense 3: "relating to or governed by or in accordance with mechanics".
    The movement of the bells is governed by mechanics (gravity, momentum, etc.).

    In the phrase "mathematical completeness and mechanical perfection," the word "mechanical" is likely used as a counterpart to "mathematical." Mathematical refers to the theory/pattern; mechanical refers to the physical execution/machinery.

    Between 1, 2, and 3:
    Sense 1 is often used for "automatic" or "rote."
    Sense 2 is about the "machinery" itself.
    Sense 3 is about the "physics/mechanics."

    "Mechanical perfection" usually means the precision of a machine. This aligns best with Sense 1 ("using (or as if using) mechanisms") or Sense 2 ("relating to machinery").

    Let's look at the phrase "mechanical perfection" in other contexts. It usually means "perfect like a machine." This points toward Sense 1.

    Wait, let's look at the synonyms for Sense 2: "mechanically skillful". The text mentions "Skilled ringers".

    Let's re-read Sense 1: "using (or as if using) mechanisms or tools or devices". Example: "a mechanical process".
    If the ringing is a "mechanical process" performed with "perfection," Sense 1 is a very strong fit.

    Let's double-check Sense 3: "relating to or governed by or in accordance with mechanics". This is more about the laws of physics.

    Let's double-check Sense 2: "relating to or concerned with machinery or tools".

    If I have to choose the *single best* sense:
    The context is the *execution* of a physical task using tools (ropes/bells).
    "Mathematical completeness" (the pattern) and "mechanical perfection" (the execution).
    The execution is a "mechanical process."

    Let's compare "mechanical process" (Sense 1) with "mechanical design" (Sense 2).
    "Mechanical perfection" is more about the *process* of the ringing than the *design* of the bells.

    Therefore, Sense 1 seems the most appropriate.

    Wait, let me search for "mechanical perfection" in a dictionary or corpus. It often means "the precision of a machine."
    Sense 1: "using (or as if using) mechanisms... his smile was very mechanical".
    Sense 2: "relating to or concerned with machinery... mechanical design".

    If "mechanical perfection" means "perfection relating to machinery," it's Sense 2.
    If "mechanical perfection" means "perfection as if it were a machine," it's Sense 1.

    In the context of "mathematical completeness and mechanical perfection," the author is likely referring to the precision of the physical system (the ringers and the bells acting as one machine). This fits the "as if using mechanisms" or "mechanical process" of Sense 1.

    Let's re-read Sense 2: "relating to or concerned with machinery or tools".
    The bells are machinery. The perfection is in the operation of that machinery.

    Let's re-read Sense 3: "relating to or governed by or in accordance with mechanics".
    Mechanics is the study of motion. The perfection is in the motion.

    This is tricky. Let's look at the examples again.
    Sense 1: "a mechanical process"
    Sense 2: "mechanical arts", "mechanical design"
    Sense 3: "the mechanical pressure of a strong wind"

    "Mechanical perfection" is very similar to "a mechanical process."

    Let's think about the contrast:
    Mathematical (Abstract/Theoretical) vs. Mechanical (Physical/Practical).
    Sense 1: "using mechanisms" (Practical/Physical).
    Sense 2: "relating to machinery" (Practical/Physical).
    Sense 3: "governed by mechanics" (Physical laws).

    Sense 1's "mechanical process" is the closest example to "mechanical perfection" in terms of describing an activity.

    Let's try to see if "mechanical" in "mechanical perfection" means "automatic."
    "passion that finds its satisfaction in mathematical completeness and mechanical perfection."
    Here, "mechanical" doesn't mean "mindless" (the negative connotation of Sense 1), but rather "precise and consistent like a machine." This is still Sense 1 ("as if using mechanisms").

    Final check:
    Sense 1: using (or as if using) mechanisms or tools or devices.
    Sense 2: relating to or concerned with machinery or tools.
    Sense 3: relating to or governed by or in accordance with mechanics.

    The "perfection" is in the *execution* of the ringing, which is a process involving tools. Sense 1's "mechanical process" fits this best.

Target lemma: perfection
Target surface form: perfection
Context:
Ten shirt-sleeved ringers stand in a circle, one foot ahead of the other in a prize-fighter's stance, each pulling a rope that disappears through a small hole in the high ceiling of the ringing chamber. No one speaks, and the snaking of the ropes seems to make as much sound as the bells themselves, muffled by the ceiling. Totally absorbed, the ringers stare straight ahead, using peripheral vision (they call it "rope-sight ") to watch the other ropes and thus time their pulls. Far above in the belfry, the huge bronze bells, mounted on wheels, swing madly through a full 360 degrees, starting and ending, surprisingly, in the inverted, or mouth-up position. Skilled ringers use their wrists to advance or retard the next swing, so that one bell can swap places with another in the following change. In a well-known detective-story involving church bells, English novelist Dorothy L. Sayers described ringing as a "passion that finds its satisfaction in mathematical completeness and mechanical <t>perfection</t>. "Ringers, she added, are "filled with the solemn intoxication that comes of intricate ritual faultlessly performed. ""

    *   Target surface form: `perfection`
    *   Context: "...English novelist Dorothy L. Sayers described ringing as a 'passion that finds its satisfaction in mathematical completeness and mechanical perfection.'"
    *   Candidate senses:
        1.  `perfection%1:26:00::`: the state of being without a flaw or defect (synonyms: flawlessness, ne plus ultra)

        3.  `perfection%1:04:00::`: the act of making something perfect

    *   The phrase is "mechanical perfection".
    *   The context describes the precise, mathematical, and ritualistic nature of bell ringing.
    *   "Mathematical completeness and mechanical perfection" refers to the *state* of the process being executed without error or flaw.
    *   It is not referring to a specific "ideal instance" (like a person being the perfection of grace) - that would be sense 2.
    *   It is not referring to the *act* of making something perfect (the process of perfecting) - that would be sense 3.
    *   It refers to the quality of being flawless or without defect in the mechanical execution of the ringing.

    *   Sense 1: "the state of being without a flaw or defect" (flawlessness). This fits "mechanical perfection" perfectly.
    *   Sense 2: "an ideal instance" (paragon). This doesn't fit the context of "mechanical perfection" in this sentence.
    *   Sense 3: "the act of making something perfect". This doesn't fit; the satisfaction is found *in* the perfection, not in the *act* of achieving it.

    *   The best fit is sense 1.
