Interjections are without grammatical connection, as you have learned, and
hence are independent.
Whatever is enclosed within marks of parenthesis is also independent of the
rest of the sentence; as, I stake my fame (_and I had fame_), my heart, my
hope, my soul, upon this cast.
+Analysis+.
1. The loveliest things in life, Tom, are but shadows.
+Explanation.+--_Tom_ is independent by address. _But_ is an adjective
modifying _shadows_.
2. There are one-story intellects, two-story intellects, and three-story
intellects with skylights.
+Explanation+.--Often, as in this sentence, _there_ is used idiomatically,
merely to throw the subject after the verb, the idea of place having faded
out of the word. To express place, another _there_ may follow the
predicate; as, _There_ is gold _there_.
3. Ah! then and there was hurrying to and fro.
4. Hope lost, all is lost.
5. The smith, a mighty man is he.
6. Why, this is not revenge.
