In front of the booths, drums were beaten and instruments played in bewildering discord. He talked aroma, osmazome, juices, and gelatine in a bewildering manner. Her face was glowing, her eyes sparkling, and she was a bewildering vision of beauty and happiness.
Sealing wax is a wax material of a seal which, after melting, hardens quickly (to paper, parchment, ribbons and wire, and other material) forming a bond that is difficult to separate without noticeable tampering.
The seal-making device is also referred to as the seal matrix or die; the imprint it creates as the seal impression (or, more rarely, the sealing). If the impression is made purely as a relief resulting from the greater pressure on the paper where the high parts of the matrix touch, the seal is known as a dry seal; in other cases ink or another liquid or liquefied medium is used, in another color than the paper.
