Target lemma: find
Target surface form: finds
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 <t>finds</t> its satisfaction in mathematical completeness and mechanical perfection. "Ringers, she added, are "filled with the solemn intoxication that comes of intricate ritual faultlessly performed. ""

*   Target word: "finds" (lemma: "find")
    *   Context: "...ringing as a 'passion that <t>finds</t> its satisfaction in mathematical completeness and mechanical perfection.'"
    *   Meaning: The passion "finds its satisfaction" in something. This is a metaphorical use.

    *   1: come upon after searching (lost/missed) - No.
    *   2: discover or determine existence - No.
    *   3: receive a specified treatment (abstract) - Synonyms: receive, get, obtain, incur. Example: "These aspects of civilization do not find expression or receive an interpretation."
    *   4: make a discovery - No.
    *   5: perceive or be contemporaneous with - No.
    *   6: perceive oneself to be in a certain condition - No.
    *   7: succeed in reaching; arrive at - Example: "The arrow found its mark." (Close, but "finds its satisfaction" is more about receiving/obtaining a state).
    *   8: come to believe (feel) - No.
    *   9: decide/declare (rule) - No.
    *   10: come upon by accident - No.
    *   11: make a discovery (scientific) - No.
    *   12: find oneself (personality) - No.
    *   13: recover/regain - No.
    *   14: establish after calculation/study - No.
    *   15: obtain through effort - No.
    *   16: get something for a specific purpose - No.

    *   Sense 3: "receive a specified treatment (abstract)". Example: "These aspects of civilization do not find expression or receive an interpretation."
    *   Sense 7: "succeed in reaching; arrive at". Example: "The arrow found its mark."

    Comparing "finds its satisfaction" with "find expression" (Sense 3) and "found its mark" (Sense 7).
    "Find expression" and "find satisfaction" are very similar abstract constructions. The passion *receives* or *obtains* its satisfaction.

    Let's re-examine Sense 3: "receive a specified treatment (abstract)".
    "Find expression" = receive expression.
    "Find satisfaction" = receive/obtain satisfaction.

    Let's re-examine Sense 7: "succeed in reaching; arrive at".
    "The arrow found its mark" is more about a physical or targeted goal.

    Sense 3 seems the most appropriate for abstract states like "expression", "interpretation", or "satisfaction".

    *   "passion that finds its satisfaction"
    *   Sense 3: "receive a specified treatment (abstract)" -> "passion that receives its satisfaction". This fits the pattern of "find expression".

    Wait, let me double-check if there's a better one.
    Sense 15: "obtain through effort or management". (No, the passion isn't managing).
    Sense 16: "get something or somebody for a specific purpose". (No).

    Sense 3 is the standard sense for "find [abstract noun]" (e.g., find favor, find expression, find satisfaction).

    *   Sense 1: (law) payment of debt/fulfillment of obligation. (Incorrect)
    *   Sense 2: contentment one feels when one has fulfilled a desire, need, or expectation. (Possible - internal feeling)
    *   Sense 3: act of fulfilling a desire or need or appetite. (Possible - the process/act of fulfillment)
    *   Sense 4: compensation for a wrong. (Incorrect)
    *   Sense 5: state of being gratified or satisfied (synonym: gratification). (Possible - internal state)

    *   The phrase is "a passion that finds its satisfaction in...".
    *   A "passion" is a strong desire or inclination.
    *   When a passion "finds its satisfaction", it means the passion is being fulfilled or gratified.
    *   Is it the *feeling* of contentment (Sense 2), the *act* of fulfilling (Sense 3), or the *state* of being gratified (Sense 5)?

    *   Sense 2: "the contentment one feels when one has fulfilled a desire..."
    *   Sense 3: "act of fulfilling a desire or need or appetite"
    *   Sense 5: "state of being gratified or satisfied"

    Let's look at the phrasing again: "a passion that finds its satisfaction in mathematical completeness".
    This suggests that the passion is *satisfied* by these things. The "satisfaction" here is the fulfillment of the passion.

    Compare:
    - "The satisfaction of my hunger" (Sense 3 - the act of fulfilling)
    - "I felt great satisfaction" (Sense 2 - the feeling)
    - "The passion found its satisfaction" (The passion was fulfilled).

    If we say "the passion finds its satisfaction", we are talking about the fulfillment of that passion. Sense 3 ("act of fulfilling a desire or need or appetite") fits well because a passion is a strong desire.

    Wait, let's re-evaluate Sense 2 and Sense 5.
    Sense 2: contentment one feels.
    Sense 5: state of being gratified.

    If the passion "finds its satisfaction", is it finding a *feeling* or is it finding *fulfillment*?
    Usually, "the satisfaction of a passion" refers to the fulfillment of it.

    Let's look at the examples:
    Sense 2: "the chef tasted the sauce with great satisfaction" (feeling)
    Sense 3: "the satisfaction of their demand for better services" (act of fulfilling)
    Sense 5: "dull repetitious work gives no gratification" (state of being gratified)

    In the sentence "a passion that finds its satisfaction in mathematical completeness", the "satisfaction" is what the passion achieves or finds. This is the fulfillment of the passion.

    Is "fulfillment of a passion" closer to the *act* of fulfilling (Sense 3) or the *feeling* of contentment (Sense 2)?
    "Finds its satisfaction" implies that the passion is being met/satisfied. This aligns most closely with Sense 3 (act of fulfilling a desire).

    Let's double-check Sense 5: "state of being gratified". This is very similar to Sense 2.

    If I say "My curiosity found satisfaction in the answer," I mean my curiosity was satisfied (the act of fulfilling the need for knowledge).

    Let's re-read Sense 3: "act of fulfilling a desire or need or appetite".
    A passion is a strong desire. The "satisfaction" of that passion is the act/process of fulfilling it.

    Let's re-read Sense 2: "the contentment one feels when one has fulfilled a desire".
    The sentence says the *passion* finds its satisfaction, not the *person* feels satisfaction. The passion itself is being satisfied.

    Therefore, Sense 3 is the most precise fit for the fulfillment of a desire/passion.

    *   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).

    *   Comparing Sense 1 and Sense 2: Sense 1 often implies "automatic" or "rote" (like the smile example). While the ringing is ritualistic, "perfection" suggests the technical/physical execution.
    *   Comparing Sense 2 and Sense 3: Sense 2 is about the *study* or *design* of machinery (mechanical arts). Sense 3 is about the *principles* of mechanics (physics/motion).
    *   Wait, let's look at Sense 1 again: "using (or as if using) mechanisms or tools or devices". A "mechanical process" fits well here. The ringing is a process involving mechanisms.
    *   However, "mechanical perfection" in the context of "mathematical completeness" suggests a system working exactly as designed, like a clockwork mechanism.
    *   Let's re-evaluate Sense 1: "using (or as if using) mechanisms... 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".

    *   The quote is from Dorothy L. Sayers. She is describing the beauty of the *system* working perfectly.
    *   "Mathematical completeness" (the patterns/changes) and "mechanical perfection" (the physical execution of the swings).
    *   Sense 1's example "a mechanical process" is very close.
    *   Sense 2's "mechanical design" is about the creation.
    *   Sense 3's "mechanical pressure" is about physics.

    *   Is it "automatic/rote" (Sense 1)? No, it's "perfection."
    *   Is it "relating to machinery" (Sense 2)? Yes, the bells are machinery.
    *   Is it "governed by mechanics" (Sense 3)? Yes, the swing of the bell is a matter of mechanics.

    Let's look at the WordNet senses again.
    Sense 1: `mechanical%3:00:00::` - using (or as if using) mechanisms or tools or devices.
    Sense 2: `mechanical%3:01:01::` - relating to or concerned with machinery or tools.
    Sense 3: `mechanical%3:01:00::` - relating to or governed by or in accordance with mechanics.

    In "mechanical perfection," the word "mechanical" describes the *type* of perfection. The perfection of the machine-like operation.
    If I say "the mechanical perfection of a watch," I mean it works exactly according to the laws of mechanics (Sense 3) or it is a perfect piece of machinery (Sense 2).

    Looking at the examples:
    Sense 1: "a mechanical process" (a process that uses mechanisms).
    Sense 2: "mechanical arts", "mechanical design" (the field of machinery).
    Sense 3: "mechanical pressure", "mechanical contrivance" (governed by mechanics).

    "Mechanical perfection" in this context refers to the flawless execution of the physical movements of the bells (which are machines). This aligns best with the idea of something operating perfectly according to the laws of mechanics or as a mechanism.

    Wait, let's look at Sense 1 again: "using (or as if using) mechanisms...". The ringers are using mechanisms. The "perfection" is in the *use* of those mechanisms.

    Let's reconsider Sense 2: "relating to or concerned with machinery". "Mechanical perfection" = perfection relating to machinery.

    Let's reconsider Sense 3: "relating to or governed by... mechanics". "Mechanical perfection" = perfection governed by the laws of mechanics.

    Comparing "mechanical process" (Sense 1) and "mechanical perfection". A process is a series of actions. Perfection is a state.
    If the perfection is that it runs like a machine, Sense 1 ("as if using mechanisms") fits the "automatic/precise" connotation.

    However, in the context of "mathematical completeness," the author is praising the precision and the physical laws at play.

    Let's look at the WordNet hierarchy if possible (mentally).
    Mechanical (adj):
    1. (of a process) automatic, rote.
    2. (of a person) skillful with machines.
    3. (of a system) relating to machinery.
    4. (of a system) relating to mechanics (physics).

    In the phrase "mechanical perfection," it most likely means the perfection of the machine-like operation.

    Let's try to find this specific quote or similar usage. Dorothy L. Sayers is talking about the "intricate ritual faultlessly performed." This suggests the *execution* is what is perfect.

    If the execution is "mechanical," it means it's done with the precision of a machine. This points toward Sense 1 ("as if using mechanisms").

    Let's double-check Sense 1: "using (or as if using) mechanisms or tools or devices". Example: "his smile was very mechanical". This means the smile was like a machine's—precise, repetitive, lacking soul.
    In the context of bell ringing, "mechanical perfection" means the timing and movement are as precise as a machine.

    Sense 2 is more about the *field* of mechanics (mechanical engineering).
    Sense 3 is more about the *physics* of mechanics.

    Therefore, Sense 1 ("as if using mechanisms") best captures the "machine-like precision" implied by "mechanical perfection" in this context.

    *   Context: "mathematical completeness and mechanical perfection"
    *   Meaning: Precision, machine-like accuracy.
    *   Sense 1: "using (or as if using) mechanisms... a mechanical process".
    *   Sense 2: "relating to or concerned with machinery... mechanical design".
    *   Sense 3: "relating to or governed by... mechanics... mechanical pressure".

    Sense 1 fits the "machine-like" quality of the perfection.

    Wait, let me re-read Sense 1 again. "using (or as if using) mechanisms or tools or devices".
    Is "mechanical perfection" using a mechanism? Yes, the bells are mechanisms.
    Is it "as if using" a mechanism? Yes, the ringers' timing is as precise as a mechanism.

    Let's check Sense 2 again. "relating to or concerned with machinery".
    Is "mechanical perfection" perfection relating to machinery? Yes.

    Let's check Sense 3 again. "relating to or governed by... mechanics".
    Is "mechanical perfection" perfection governed by mechanics? Yes.

    Which one is *best*?
    "Mathematical completeness" (abstract/theoretical) and "mechanical perfection" (physical/operational).
    The contrast is between the *math* (the pattern) and the *mechanics* (the physical execution).
    This makes Sense 3 ("governed by... mechanics") or Sense 1 ("using mechanisms") strong.

    However, "mechanical perfection" is a common phrase meaning "working like a perfect machine."
    Looking at the examples for Sense 1: "a mechanical process". A process that is mechanical is one that is automatic or follows a fixed sequence. This matches the "intricate ritual faultlessly performed."

    Let's look at Sense 2 again: "mechanical arts", "mechanical design". These are about the *study* or *creation* of machines. Not the *operation* of them.

    Let's look at Sense 3 again: "mechanical pressure", "mechanical contrivance". These are about the *physics* of the situation.

    Sense 1 seems the most appropriate for describing the *way* something is performed (like a "mechanical process").

    Wait, I just noticed Sense 1's example "his smile was very mechanical". This means "automatic" or "devoid of expression". Does "mechanical perfection" mean "automatic perfection"? In the context of a ritual "faultlessly performed," yes, it means the execution is so precise it's as if it were done by a machine.

    Let's re-verify Sense 1 vs Sense 3.
    Sense 1: using/as if using mechanisms.
    Sense 3: governed by mechanics (physics).

    "Mechanical perfection" in a clock or a bell system usually refers to the precision of its movement (mechanics). But the *perfection* of the *performance* (the ringers) is more about the "as if using mechanisms" (Sense 1).

    Wait, the quote says "ringing as a 'passion that finds its satisfaction in mathematical completeness and mechanical perfection.'"
    Ringing is the *activity*. The activity finds satisfaction in the perfection of the *mechanics* of the bells and the *execution* of the ringers.

    Let's look at the WordNet senses one more time.
    1. using (or as if using) mechanisms or tools or devices
    2. relating to or concerned with machinery or tools
    3. relating to or governed by or in accordance with mechanics

    If I say "the mechanical perfection of the engine," I mean it's a perfect piece of machinery (Sense 2) or it operates perfectly according to mechanics (Sense 3).
    If I say "the mechanical perfection of the dancer's movements," I mean they are as precise as a machine (Sense 1).

    In this context, "ringing" (the activity) is what has the "mechanical perfection." The activity involves both the people and the bells. The "perfection" is in the flawless, machine-like execution of the ritual.

    This points strongly to Sense 1.

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>.

    *   21: happen as a result (Nothing good will come of this) - This is similar to sense 2.

    *   Sense 2: "to be the product or result" (Example: "Understanding comes from experience").
    *   Sense 21: "happen as a result" (Example: "Nothing good will come of this").

    *   Context: "intoxication that comes of intricate ritual faultlessly performed."
    *   In this context, "comes of" means "is the result of" or "is produced by".
    *   Sense 2: "to be the product or result" (Understanding comes from experience).
    *   Sense 21: "happen as a result" (Nothing good will come of this).

    Wait, let's look closer at the phrasing "comes of".
    "Intoxication that comes of intricate ritual" = Intoxication that results from intricate ritual.
    Sense 2: "to be the product or result" (Understanding comes from experience).
    Sense 21: "happen as a result" (Nothing good will come of this).

    Sense 2 is often used for things that *originate* from something (like melons from a vine, or understanding from experience).
    Sense 21 is often used for *outcomes* or *consequences* (Nothing good will come of this).

    Comparing "Understanding comes from experience" (Sense 2) with "intoxication that comes of intricate ritual", they are very similar. The intoxication is the product/result of the ritual.

    Let's re-examine Sense 21: "happen as a result". "Nothing good will come of this" suggests a consequence.

    Actually, "come of" is a phrasal construction.
    Sense 2: "to be the product or result" (Melons come from a vine; Understanding comes from experience).
    Sense 21: "happen as a result" (Nothing good will come of this).

    In the sentence "intoxication that comes of intricate ritual", the intoxication is the *product* of the ritual. This aligns very well with Sense 2.

    Let's double-check if there's any other sense.
    Sense 18: "develop into" (nothing came of his grandiose plans). This is more about failure or evolution.

    Sense 2 seems the most accurate for "is the result of".

    Wait, let me look at the examples again.
    Sense 2: "Understanding comes from experience"
    Sense 21: "Nothing good will come of this"

    The phrase "comes of" in the text is "comes of intricate ritual".
    If I replace it: "intoxication that results from intricate ritual".
    This matches "Understanding comes from experience" (Sense 2) better than "Nothing good will come of this" (Sense 21).

    Let's check if "come of" specifically maps to Sense 2 or 21.
    Sense 2: "to be the product or result"
    Sense 21: "happen as a result"

    Actually, "come of" is often used in the sense of "result from".
    Example: "What will come of this?" (What will be the result?)
    Example: "It comes of wanting to be too clever." (It is the result of...)

    Looking at the provided senses again:
    Sense 2: "to be the product or result" (Melons come from a vine; Understanding comes from experience)
    Sense 21: "happen as a result" (Nothing good will come of this)

    The intoxication is the product/result. Sense 2 fits perfectly.

    Wait, let me re-read Sense 21 again. "happen as a result".
    "Nothing good will come of this" -> Nothing good will happen as a result of this.
    "Intoxication that comes of intricate ritual" -> Intoxication that happens as a result of intricate ritual.

    Is there a subtle difference?
    Sense 2: "to be the product or result"
    Sense 21: "happen as a result"

    "Understanding comes from experience" (Sense 2)
    "Intoxication comes of ritual" (Target)

    Both describe a state or quality (understanding, intoxication) that is produced by something else (experience, ritual).

    Let's look at Sense 21 again: "Nothing good will come of this". This is more about an event or outcome.

    Sense 2 seems the strongest fit.

    Wait, let me check if "come of" is specifically listed in any of these.
    Sense 2: "to be the product or result" (synonym: follow)
    Sense 21: "happen as a result"

    Actually, "come of" is a very common way to say "result from".
    If I search for "come of" in WordNet, it often points to "result from".

    Let's re-evaluate Sense 2 and Sense 21.
    Sense 2: "to be the product or result"
    Sense 21: "happen as a result"

    If the intoxication *is* the result, Sense 2 ("be the product or result") is a better description than Sense 21 ("happen as a result").

    Let's double-check Sense 18: "develop into" (nothing came of his grandiose plans). This is when something *doesn't* happen or doesn't lead to anything.

    Final check:
    Context: "intoxication that comes of intricate ritual"
    Sense 2: "to be the product or result"
    Example: "Understanding comes from experience"
    This is a very close match.

*   Target lemma: `ritual`
    *   Context: The text describes the art of bell ringing (change ringing). It mentions the precision, the "mathematical completeness," and "mechanical perfection." The specific sentence is: "Ringers, she added, are 'filled with the solemn intoxication that comes of intricate <t>ritual</t> faultlessly performed.'"
    *   Candidate Senses:
        1.  `ritual%1:04:02::` - stereotyped behavior
        2.  `ritual%1:04:00::` - any customary observance or practice (synonym: rite)
        3.  `ritual%1:04:01::` - the prescribed procedure for conducting religious ceremonies

    *   The context describes bell ringing. While bell ringing often happens in churches (religious settings), the focus here is on the *act* of ringing itself—the "mathematical completeness," "mechanical perfection," and the "intricate" nature of the performance.
    *   Is it "stereotyped behavior" (Sense 1)? No, that usually implies something repetitive or habitual, often in a psychological or social sense, rather than a skilled art form.
    *   Is it "the prescribed procedure for conducting religious ceremonies" (Sense 3)? While bells are in a church, the "ritual" being referred to here is the *process of ringing the bells* (the change ringing), which is more of a customary practice/art than a formal religious ceremony procedure (like a liturgy or a baptism).
    *   Is it "any customary observance or practice" (Sense 2)? Yes. Change ringing is a customary practice with specific rules and traditions. The use of "intricate ritual" here refers to the complex, traditional practice of the ringing patterns.

    *   Sense 2 (`ritual%1:04:00`) is the broadest and fits "customary observance or practice."
    *   Sense 3 (`ritual%1:04:01`) is specifically for *religious ceremonies*. While the bells are in a church, the text emphasizes the *mathematical* and *mechanical* aspect of the ringing, treating it as a specialized practice/art rather than a religious rite.
    *   Sense 1 (`ritual%1:04:02`) is too narrow/negative ("stereotyped behavior").

    The phrase "intricate ritual faultlessly performed" in the context of a skilled, traditional activity like change ringing aligns best with a "customary observance or practice."

    *   Sense 1: stereotyped behavior (Incorrect)
    *   Sense 2: any customary observance or practice (Correct)
    *   Sense 3: prescribed procedure for religious ceremonies (Incorrect - too specific to the ceremony itself, whereas this is about the skill/practice of ringing).

    *   Sense 2: `get (something) done` (do). This is very general.
    *   Sense 3: `carry out or perform an action` (execute, do). This fits well with "ritual", as a ritual is a sequence of actions that are executed or carried out. The example "the skater executed a triple pirouette" is very similar to "faultlessly performed" a ritual.
    *   Sense 4: `give a performance (of something)`. This usually refers to a stage performance (music, play, etc.). While bell ringing can be a performance, the context here is about the "intricate ritual" and "mathematical completeness", emphasizing the execution of the steps rather than a public show.

    *   Sense 3 focuses on the execution of a specific action or set of actions (like a pirouette or a ritual).
    *   Sense 4 focuses on the act of presenting to an audience.
    *   The phrase "faultlessly performed" in the context of a "ritual" strongly aligns with "executed" (Sense 3).

    *   "The caterpillar became a butterfly" (Sense 3 - undergo a change/development).

    *   "Ringing does become a bit of an obsession" -> Ringing assumes the state of being an obsession.

    *   "Become an obsession" is a change in the nature of the activity's role in the person's life.

        *   `become.v.02` (Sense 3): undergo a change or development.
    *   "Become an obsession" is almost always categorized as assuming a state.

    *   If I say "It became a problem", that's Sense 2.
    *   If I say "The seed became a tree", that's Sense 3.

    *   "Ringing becomes an obsession" is a development.
    *   However, "assume a certain state" (Sense 2) is the most common usage for "become [noun/adj]" unless it's a transformation.

    *   Sense 2: "He became annoyed" (state).

*   Target word: "obsession"
    *   Context: The text describes the art of bell ringing. It mentions it as a "passion that finds its satisfaction in mathematical completeness and mechanical perfection" and "solemn intoxication." Stephanie Pattenden admits, "Ringing does become a bit of an obsession."
    *   Candidate Senses:
        1.  `obsession%1:16:00::`: an irrational motive for performing trivial or repetitive actions, even against your will (synonym: compulsion). Example: washing hands repeatedly.
        2.  `obsession%1:09:00::`: an unhealthy and compulsive preoccupation with something or someone (synonym: fixation).

    *   Sense 1 refers to OCD-like compulsions (repetitive actions against one's will).
    *   Sense 2 refers to a fixation or an intense preoccupation.
    *   In the context, "obsession" is used to describe a deep passion for bell ringing. While the speaker says "a bit of an obsession," it's clearly referring to a strong preoccupation/fixation on the hobby/art, not a clinical compulsion to perform trivial tasks against their will.

    *   The context links "obsession" with "passion."
    *   Sense 2 (fixation/preoccupation) fits much better than Sense 1 (compulsion/irrational motive for trivial actions).

    *   Sense 1: Compulsion (clinical/repetitive).
    *   Sense 2: Fixation (intense interest/preoccupation).
    *   The context is about a hobby/passion. Sense 2 is the correct fit.

    *   Context: "...'Ringing does become a bit of an obsession,' admits Stephanie Pattenden, <t>master</t> of the band at St. Mary Abbot and one of England's best female ringers."
    *   Key phrase: "master of the band at St. Mary Abbot"

    *   1: directs the work of others
    *   2: an authority qualified to teach apprentices (professional)
    *   3: a combatant who is able to defeat rivals (victor, superior)
    *   4: an original creation (audio recording)
    *   5: a person who has general authority over others (overlord, lord)

    *   8: someone who holds a master's degree
    *   9: presiding officer of a school (headmaster)
    *   10: key that secures entrance everywhere (passkey)

    *   The context describes Stephanie Pattenden as the "master of the band at St. Mary Abbot".
    *   In the context of bell ringing (the "band" refers to the group of ringers), the "master" is the person who leads, directs, and organizes the ringing.
    *   Sense 1: "directs the work of others" fits well.
    *   Sense 2: "authority qualified to teach apprentices" - while a master ringer might teach, the primary role of the "master of the band" is leadership/direction.
    *   Sense 7: "an artist of consummate skill" - she is described as "one of England's best female ringers," but the title "master of the band" specifically refers to her role/position of leadership within that group.
    *   Sense 5: "general authority over others" (overlord) is too strong/wrong context.

    *   In bell ringing, the "Master" is the person in charge of the ringing band, responsible for directing the ringing and training new ringers.
    *   Comparing Sense 1 ("directs the work of others") and Sense 7 ("an artist of consummate skill").
    *   The phrase "master of the band" indicates a position of leadership/direction.
    *   Sense 1 is the most accurate description of a leader/director of a group.

    *   Sense 1: directs the work of others.
    *   Sense 2: authority qualified to teach apprentices.
    *   Sense 7: artist of consummate skill.
    *   The "master of the band" is the leader who directs the ringing. Sense 1 is the most general and fitting description for a leader of a group/band.

    *   Wait, let me double-check if "master" in a guild or craft sense (Sense 2) is more appropriate. Bell ringing is a craft. However, "master of the band" is a specific title for the leader.
    *   Let's look at Sense 1 again: "directs the work of others".
    *   Let's look at Sense 7 again: "an artist of consummate skill".
    *   The text says "master of the band... and one of England's best female ringers." This separates the title (master of the band) from the skill (one of the best). This suggests "master" here refers to the leadership role.

    *   Sense 1: directs the work of others. (Fits "master of the band")
    *   Sense 2: authority qualified to teach apprentices. (Possible, but Sense 1 is more direct for "of the band")
    *   Sense 5: general authority (overlord). (No)
    *   Sense 7: artist of consummate skill. (No, that's the "best female ringers" part)

    *   Sense 1 is the best fit for a leader/director of a group.
