Top ~400 Frequency of word-pairs in Bruce-Parrington Plans...(crude word parsing & pairing.) I hadn't noticed how often he ends a sentence with "said he." 16 times seems pretty high for such a short piece. Note that this was done case-sensitive ("H" is not "h") nor without punctuation. If the word pair is the same as a word pair at the end of a sentence, the two pairs will each count separately. (See #14 "It is" vs. "it is" coincidentally at the same count...half the time he starts a sentence with "It is". See also "It was" at 18 & 14.)
