Speaking highly of someone or something; the act of praising or commending someone or something. quotations examples
It was the prettiest and most luxurious little sitting-room I had ever seen; and I admired it with the warmest enthusiasm. The solemn servant was far too highly trained to betray the slightest satisfaction. He bowed with icy deference when my terms of eulogy were all exhausted, and silently opened the door for me to go out into the passage again.
1859, Wilkie Collins, The Woman in White
