Except for this one difference, the first and second Bernoulli numbers agree.

Price's dichotomy dictates the second stage commenced with August Derleth, the principal difference between Lovecraft and Derleth being the latter's use of hope and that the Cthulhu mythos essentially represented a struggle between good and evil.

In this case, the analogy applies both to the form of the words and to their meaning: in each pair, the first word means " one of X ", while the second " two or more of X ", and the difference is always the plural form-s affixed to the second word, signaling the key distinction between singular and plural entities.

These three-wave mixing processes correspond to the nonlinear effects known as second harmonic generation, sum frequency generation, difference frequency generation and optical rectification respectively.
