Sample text
Lewis “sacred” or “scriptural” prose. 4 As stated earlier, poetry (and here we include song) has filled the vacuum left by a stunted expository tradition, and has, in some sense, assumed its role. To say this, of course, calls for precision in our definition of these types of written discourse. The common understanding of expository prose is that it is nonfictional and that it explains its subject matter step by step. What is said less frequently is that “step by step” means “linear”: exposition is mostly a linear process in which each element primarily derives from the one that preceded it.
