bewitching

The thread tying it all together is a new drug from the Muslim world—black, odiferous, frightening, bewitching—called “coffee.”

I was involved in the semweb community ~7 years ago, particularly the "RDF knowledge graph" end, and it's still a bewitching idea.

They wore them constantly in the filthy steaming kitchens, creating a bewitching pattern of wear that was painstakingly replicated by Morrisons jeansmiths.

I bemoan rather than beatify prescriptionists who bequeath their own bespoke English upon the world, befuddled when the rest of us find it somewhere between befouling and beleaguering rather than bewitching.

The kind you can't really build up the motivation to fix, and even worse, bewitching in that even when you're pretty sure you've discovered that "neat trick", once you see it out to the end you realize you just did the same thing everyone else did, and didn't realize it.

I don't expect you will really understand the beauty of the softly simmering data model with its shimmering algorithms, the delicate power of liquids that creep through data streams, bewitching the mind, ensnaring the senses ... I can teach you how to bottle fame, brew glory, even stopper death -- if you aren't as big a bunch of dunderheads as I usually have to teach.
