To have heard them once
...just as you are well satisfied, in the majority of
cases, to have seen through tricks which you did not think could possibly be
done, so in the case of these word-gymnasts to have heard them once is amply
sufficient. For what can a man desire to learn or to imitate in them?

Word gymnasts, I like it, but real gymnastics is about precision and timing. Been there done that, if you get it wrong you fall off the bar. So perhaps Cameron got it least wrong and just about stayed up. Time will tell.
