THEADVERTISEMENT.favourable reception of Mr. Sheridan's Dictionary luvingrendered a new Edition neceflary,the indefatigable Author, animated bythe warm approbation of the Public, cheerfully undertook the laborious tafk ofrevifing the work preparatory to its being reprinted. In order to make it ascomplete as pofTible, and to fuperfede the neceffity of any future alterations,the Grammar, with its valuable Appendix, the Diredions to Foreigners, &c.occupied much of his attention, and received from his own hand their finalimprovements. Perceiving that many ufeful and approved words had beenomitted in the Dictionary, to lupply the deficiency, and to render the workmore extenfively ufeful, he carefully feleQed a number of words (amounting tonearly a thoufand), and introduced them in their alphabetical order, with theirpeculiar marks of pronunciation. Since his death the Pubiifher has been favouredwith an additional lift of words, from which a confiderable number has beenextra(5led, and inferted, with their marks and explanations, in their properplaces, under the diredion of a Gentleman who was appointed by Mr. Sheridanto fuperintend the work during its progrefs through the prefs.The prefcnt Edition is now offered to the Public with all the Author's laftcorredlions and improvements ; and the Pubiifher flatters himfelf that it willnot only anfwer the purpofc of any other Dictionary, by giving the cleareftexplanation of the meaning of woids, but, by having the fuperior advantage ofumple vilible marks affixed to each word, tend to reduce the pronunciation ofthe Englifh tongue to a regular and uniform ftandard. To all public fpeakers,and teachers in general, it muft be highly acceptable ; while to foreigners whoftudy the language, and to perfons who have been habituated to the Scotch,Iriih, or Provincial accent, it muft be confidered as a real acquifiilun.[ To be placed after the Title. ]

PREFACE.OFallthe languages known in the world, the Englifli is fuppofed to be the mofi;difficult ; and foreigners in general look upon it as imprafticable to arrive at anydegree of" perfeftion, either in writing or fpeaking it. Yet from its nature and conftitution,with regard to the grammatical part, it ought to be the moft eafy of attainmentof any other ; as upon examination it would appear, that it is built upon the fimpleftprinciples, and governed by the feweft rules, of any language yet known. In whiclirefpefts it exceeds even the Hebrew ; hitherto fuppofed to be the moll: fnnple of any.With regard indeed to the pronunciation of our tongue, the obftacles are great ; and inthe prefent ftate of things almoft infuperable. But all this apparent difficulty arifes fromour utter negled; of examining and regulating our fpeech ; as nothing has hitherto beendone, either by individuals, or focieties, towards a right method of teaching it.While the ingenious natives of other countries in Europe, particularly the Italians,French, and Spaniards, in proportion to their progrefs in civilization and politenefs, have,for more than a century, been employed, with the utmoft induftry, in cultivating andregulating their fpeech -, we ftill remain in the ftate of all barbarous countries in thatrefpeft, having left our's wholly to chance. Whoever has a mind to attain any of thofetongues, may arrive at the utmoft perfedlion in them, by the inftruftion of ikilful mafters,and the aid of accurate grammars and diftionaries ; together with various treatifes on thepeculiar niceties and elegancies of each. But wlien a foreigner arrives in London, and, asthe firft necefTary point, enquires for a mafter to teach him the language, to his utteraftoniftiment he is told, that there are none to be found ; and thus he is kft to pick itup as well as he can,,in die fame way as if he had landed among favages.This is the more furprifing, as perhaps there never was a language, which required,or merited cultivation more ; and certainly there never \^a-s a people upon eartli, to whoma perfecfl ufe of the powers of fpeech were fo effentially necefTary, to fupport their rights,privileges, and all tlie bleffings arifing from the nobleft conftitution that ever was formed.This amazing negleft has been owing to a mode of education, eftablifhed more than twocenturies ago ; and which, notwithftanding a total change in every circumftance, thatmade fuch a mode of education the moft proper for thofe times, has, to the difgrace ofhuman reafon, and to the indelible reproach of the legiflature of this country, remainedinvariably the fame ever fince. On the revival of letters, the ftudy of the Greek andRoman languages, in a fliorc time, became general, in the more civilized nations ofaEurope i

PREFACE.Europe ; and in this they were wife ; becaufe a treafure of knowledge, the colleftedwifdom of ages, was here opened to their view, which could be acquired in no odierway; as their own languages were then poor and barbarous, arid the works of tlieirauthors, neither fit for entertainment or ufe. Whereas in the noble works of antiquity,they found every thing necefiary to enlighten the underftanding, regulate the fancy, andrefine the tafte ; and in proportion to their progrefs in this way, they who applied themfclvesto thofe ftudies, gained a fuperiority over the reft of mankind, not in fameonly, but in rank and fortune. Tims were they ftimulated in the purfuit, not only bythe pleafure attending the chafe, but by the great ends to be attained by it. Thetemples of Fame and Fortune were fliut to all, wlio could not make their offerings inGi-eek and Latin. Latin particularly was the general language, in which all people ofeducation both converfed and wrote ; and became, for a confiderable length of time, thecurrency of Europe, as French is at this day. Our anceftors, not to be behind-handwith other nations, made many endowments of fchools and colleges, for the perpetualpropagation of thofe ftudies, in their days fo juftly held in the higheft eftimation. Theycould not look into the feeds of time, nor forefee that future generations, upon a totalchange of ciroumftances, might fuftcr much by a continuation of thofe inftitutions ; orthat an enlightened pofterity would not make fuch alterations in them, as a change oftimes might render necefiary.The change, indeed, fince their days, has been fo great, that the two learned languagesare fallen into utter difufe. No one now either writes, or converfes in them. Nay, fototally are they gone out of fafliion, that in order to avoid the imputation of pedantry,no gentleman muft let it appear in converfation, tliat he ever had the leaft tinfturc ofthofe ftudies ; and far from contributing to any man's advancement to pofts of honouror profit, die utmoft (l;ill in thofe languages will only qualify perlbns for the office offchoolmafters, or private tutors. While a complete maftery of the Englifti, botli inwriting and fpeaking, would be the furcft means of attaining thofe ends,' and anfwer everyother purpofe of fpecch, with regard to ornament, as well as ufe, to an inhabitant ofthefe countries, better than a command of all the other languages known in the world.Yet fo little regard has been paid to it in either refpedl, diat out of our numerous armyof authors, very few can be felefted who write with accuracy > and among the multitudeof our orators, even a tolerable fpeaker is a prodigy.All this arifes from a wrong bias given to the mind, in our courfe of education, withregard to two material articles." The firft is, a total negle

PREFACE.a very poor figure in tiieir Englifli ftyle. Nay it has lately been proved by a learnedPrelate, in a fliort eflfay upon our grammar, that fome of our molt celebrated writers, andfuch as liave hitherto paffed for our Englifh Clanks, have been guilty of great folecifms,inaccuracies, and even grammatical improprieties, in many places of their moft foiiihedworks. Nor is this at all furprifing, when we confider that grammar has never been taughtamong us as a fcience ; and that in learning Latin, our youth are inltructed only in themechanical rules peculiarly adapted to that language ; where therefore thefe do not fquarewith another, they are as much at a lofs, as if they knew no rules at all. Will any of thefe,prefuming upon their knowledge of Latin, think they can matter the French or Italian,without learning the grammars of their refpeftive tongues ? And is there not the famereafon for examining the peculiar rules by which the Englifh is governed ? This wouldcertainly be done by all in the liberal line of life, were the means open to them. But thefa6t is, that there has been no method laid down for attaining this knowledge. Nothingworthy the name of a gramrnar has hidierto appeared ; and it is not many years fince adiftionary of any value was produced ; which, though it muft be allowed to have beenan Herculean labour, when confidered as the work of one man, yet ftill is capable of greatimprovement. Hence each individual is left to acquire any critical Ikill in his own language,as well as he can, by his own labour. The difficulties that perpetually ftart in hisway, through want of fome principles and rules to guide him, foon make him weary ofthe fruitlefs purfuit ; and people in general are fatisfied with copying others, or makinoinnovationsupon unfure grounds. In confequence of which, it has been in a perpetual ftateoffluftuation, being left wholly to the guidance of caprice and fafhion. The learnedcompiler of the Englifli Diftionary, in fpeaking of our language, fays, « That while it* was employed in the cultivation of every Ipecies of literature, it has itfelf been neglefted* fuffered to fpread under the direction of chance, into wild exuberance ; refigned to the* tyranny of time and fafliion ; and expofed to the corruption of ignorance, and caprice of* innovation. When I took the firil furvey of my undertaking, I found our ipeech* copious without order, and energetic widiout rules : wherever I turned my view, there' was perplexity to be difentanglcd, and confufion to be regulated.' And Swift, in hLsletter to Lord Oxford, is of opinion, that the corruptions crept into our language, havemore than counterbalanced any improvements it has received, fince the d.-iys of Charlesthe Firft. No wonder indeed our written language Ihould be in this ftate, when the onlyarticle attended to, -and regularly taught, is that of Ipelling words proDerl"^^But low as the ftate of the written language is, that of die Ipoken is infinitely worfewith regard to which, nothing has been done, even to render a right pronunciation of thewords attainable. And with refpecft to every other point, we are fo far from having anyway opened for teaching a juft and graceful deliveiy,that even from our learning the firftelements of ipeech, we are fo wholly perverted by falfe rules, and afterwards corruptedby bad habits, that there is fcarce a pofiibiliiy of arriving at any degree of perfection iathe moll ufeful and pleafing art that can adorn and dignify human nature.a 2 Tl;e

PREFACE.The total negleft of this art has been produdtive of the worft confequences. It is byIpeech tluu all affairs relative to the nation at large, or pa'rticular focieties, are carried on.In the condudl of all affairs ecclefiaftical and civil, in churcli, in parliament, courts ofjuftice, county courts, grand and petty juries, even down to vcftries in pariflies, arc thepowers of fpecch effcntially rcquifite. In all which places, tlie v/retched ftate of elocutionis apparent to perfons of any difcernment and tafle ; more particularly in the cliurch, wheretiiat talent would be of the utmoft moment to the fupport of religion. But in general,the fpeakers confole themfelves with the thought, that they are not worfe than tlieir neighbours: and numbers, hopelefs of arriving at any degree of excellence in that way, endeavour,as is ufual on fuch occafions, to de£i;eciate what they cannot attain. Nay, it liasbeen gravely maintained by many writers, that oratory is not fuited to the genius of thenation, or nature of the conflitution ; and that any ufe of it, in the pulpit, the Icnatehoufe,or bar, would even be improper. To this term of Oratory, from the erroneousideas entertained of that art, they annex flrange confufed notions, of fomething artificialin tones, loolcs, and gefturc, that have no foundation in nattUT, and are the mere inventionsof man. But if the true art of oratory be only to exhibit nature dreft to advantage ;if its objedl be, to enable the fpeaker to difplay his thoughts and fentiments, in the moftperfpicuous, pleafing, and forcible manner ; fo as to enlighten the underflanding, charmthe ear,and leave the deepefl: imprefTions on the minds of the hearers—Can any one butthe moft vain pedant, or ftupid barbarian, fay, that fuch an art is improper for this orany other ibciety in die world ? To rcafon with blind prejudice, or invincible ignorance,\yould be fruitlcfs ; but I would beg leave to afl< all wJio aflert this doclrine a fewqueftions."Whether it would not contribute much to promote the caufe of religion, if tlie ferviceof the church were always performed with propriety, and fermons delivered with due force ?Whether it would not be of fervice to the flate, if all our fcnators, who had fromnature the abilities, fliould alfo be furniihed, from art and praftice, with the habitual powerof delivering their fentiments readily, in a correfb, perfpicuous, and forcible manner ?And whether this would not be equally ufeful to the gentlemen of the bar ? ;Whedier it would not contribute much to the eafe and pleafure of ibciety, and improvementof politenefs, if all gentlemen in public meetings, or private company, fliould beable to exprefs their thoughts clearly, and with an utterance fo regulated, as not to givepain to tlie und^rftanding, or offence to the ears of their auditors ?Whether it would not greatly contribute to put an end to the odious dillinflion kept upbetween the fubjeels of the fame king, if a way were opened, by which the attainment ofthe Englifli tongue in its purity, both in point of plirafeology and pronunciation, mightbe rendered eafy to all inhabitants of his Majef\y's dominions,Britain, of Ireland, or the other Britifh dependencies fwhether of South or NorthWhether it would not redound much to the honour of this nation, if the attainmentof our tongue were rendered eafy to foreigners, fo as to enable them to read our excclflent

P R E F AC E.lent authors in the original, and converfe v/itli the natives of thefc countries upon equalt-erras?Whether many important advantages would not accrue both to the prcfent ao-e, andto poftcrity, if the Englifn language were afcertained, and reduced to a fixed and permanentftandard ?Whether th.e flrft ftep nccefiary to the accomplifliment of thefe points, be not thatof opening a method, whereby all cliildren of thefe realms, whether male or female, maybe inftrufted from the firft rudiments, in a grammatical knowledge of the Engliili tono-uc,and the art of reading and fpeaking it with propriety and grace ; in the fame regular v;ayas other languages, and other arts, of infinitely lefs confequence to them, are now tauo-ht ?To compafs thefe points, and others perhaps of ftill greater confequence which mayflow from them, has been the chief objed of the Author's puifuits in life, and the mainend of the prefent publication.It mull be obvious, that in order to fpread abroad the Englifli languao-e as a livinotongue,and to facilitate the attainment of its fpeech, it is neceniuy in the firft place thata ftandard of pronunciation fliould be eftabliftied, and a method of acquiring a juft onefliould be laid open. That the prefent ftate of the v\'i-itten language is not at all calculatedto anfwer that end, is evident from this ; that not only the natives of Ireland, Scotland,and Wales, who fpeak Englifti, and are taught to read it, pronounce it differently, buteach county in England has its peculiar dialedt, which infedts not only their fpeech, buttheir reading alfo. All attempts to reform this by any alteration in our written lano-uao-ewould be utterly imprafticable : And die only plan which could pofTibly be followed withany profped of fuccefs, is what the Author has purfaed in his Profodial Grammai- andDiftionaiy.In his Grammar, he has laid open a metliod of teaching evcrv thin"- which regardsfound, from the firft fimple elements, to their moft extended combinations in words andfentences. He has pointed our the principles upon which our pronunciation is foundedand the general rules by which it is regulated.In his Diftionary he ha"s reduced the pronunciation of each word to a certainty byfixed and vifible marks ; the only way by which uniform.ity of found could be propagatedto any diftance. This we find effedtually done in the art of mufic by notes • forin whatever part of the globe mufic is fo taught, the adepts in it read it exactly thefameway. A fimilar uniformity of pronunciation, by means -of this Grammar and Dictionary,may be fpread through all parts of the globe, vvherever Englifh fliall be tauo-htby their aid.But it may be afked, what right the Author has to afTum.e to himfelf the ofiice of alegifkitor on this occafion, and what his pretenfions are to eftabiifh an abfolute ftandard inan article, which is far from being in a fettled ftate among any clafs of people ? It is wellkjiown, that there is a great diverficy of pronunciation of the fame words, not only inindividuals, but in whole bodies of m?n. That there are fome adopted by the univerfities;.

PREFACE.fitics ; fome prevail at th^ bar, and fome in the fenate-hoiife. That the propriety of thefcfc\eral pronunciations Is controverted by the feveral pcrfons who have adopted them ; andwhat right has this felf-appointed judge to determine which is the bed ?The Author allows the propriety of the objeftion, and therefore thinks it necefiary to layopen the grounds upon which he puts in his claim to this arduous office.There was a time, and that at no very diftant period, which may be called the Aiiguftanage of England, I mean during the reign of Queen Anne, when Englifli was the languageIpoken at court ; and v»lien die fame attention was paid to propriety of pronunciation, asthat of French at the Court of Verfailles. This produced a uniformity in that article inail the polite circles j and a gentjeinan or lady would have been as much afliamed of awrong pronunciation then,as perfons of a liberal education would now be of mif-fpellingwords. ' But on the acceffion of a foreign family to the throne, amid the many bleflingsconferred by that happy event, the Englilh language fufFered much by being banlflied thecourt, to make room for the French. From that time the regard formerly paid to pronunciationhas been gradually declining ; fo that now the greateft improprieties in thatpoint are to be found among people of fafliion ; many pronunciations, which thirty orforty years ago were confined to the vulgar, are gradually gaining ground; and if fom.e-rthing be not done to flop this growing evil, and fix a general ftandard at prefent, tlieEnglllliis likely to become a mere jargon, which every one may pronounce as he pleafes. Itis to be wifhed, that fuch a ftandard had been eftablllhed at the period before mentioned,as It Is probable, that Englifh was then fpoken in its higheftftate of perfeftion. Nor is ityet too late to recover It in that very ftate. It was my fortune to receive the early partof my education under a matter, who made that a material objeft of Inftruftion to theyouth committed to his care. He was the intimate friend, and chofen companion of Swift;who had pafled great part of his life in a familiar intercourfe with the moft diftingulfhedmen of the age, whether for rank or genius. Eminent as he was for the purity and accuracyof his ftyle, he was not more attentive to that point in writing, than he was toexaftnefs of pronunciation in fpeaking. Nor could he bear to hear any miftakes committedby his friends in that refpeft, without correfting them. I had the happinefs to be muckwith him in the early part of my life, and for feveral months read to him three or fourhours a day, receiving flill the benefit of his Infiruftlon. I have fince had frequentopportunities of being convinced that a uniformity of pronunciation had prevailed at thecourt of Queen Anne, by comparing Swift's with that of many diftinguiflied perfonageswho were there initiated into life;among the number of which were the Duke of Dorfetand the Earl of Cheftcrfield. And that very pronunciation is ftlll the cuftomary oneamong the defendants of all the politer part of the world bred in that reign. Upon inveftigatingthe principles on which the pronunciation of that time was formed, I found,,that though there were no rules laid down for its regulation, yet there was a fecret Influenceof analogy conftantly o])erating, which attradled the difterent words, according to theirftveral clafles, to itfclf as tlieir center. And where there were any deviations from thatanalogy,.

PREFACE.andanalog}-, the anomalies were founded upon the beft principle by which fpeech can be regulated,that of preferring the pronunciation which was the moll eafy to the organs of fpeccli,and confcquently moft agreeable to the ear. So far the Author has laid open his pretenfions,upon a fuppoiition that pronunciation depended only upon cuftom and fafliion.But v/hen he adds, that he is the firft who ever laid open the principles upon which ourpronunciation is founded, and the rules by which it is regulated, he hopes the claim hehas laid in to the office he has undertaken, will not be confidered as either vain or prefumptuous.When v/e refled, that no evil fo great can befal any language, as a perpetual fluctuationboth in point of fpelling and pronouncing, it is furely a thing to be wiflied, that a permanentand obvious ftandard to both fhould at fome certain period be eftabliihed -,pofTible,ifthat period fliould be fixed upon, when probably they were in the greateft degreeofperfeftion. Dr. Johnfon's fpelling has been implicitly followed in tlie prefent Diftionary.It fcarce deviates from that ufed by the writers in Queen Anne's reign; ashehas judiciouflyrejefted feveral innovations attempted fince that time by vain and pragmatical writers, who,from an affedtation of fingularity, have attempted to introduce changes, upon principleswhich will by no means Hand die teft of examination j and it might indifputably beproved, that no alterations in that refpeft, produ6live of any real benefit, can be made,without new moulding our alphabet, and making a confiderable addition to its charaflersja point utterly imprafticable.With regard to pronunciation, the Author has laid his reafons before the public of hishaving followed that which was eftabliihed at the fame £era. Thus, in both thefe articles,has he in this one work endeavoured to fix two anchors to our floating language, in orderto keep it fteady againft the gales of caprice, and current of fafhion.In the explanatory part he has chiefly followed Dr. Johnfon; only fometimes makingufe of plainer words,more adapted to the capacity of EnghUi readers.As the utmoft accuracy was necefl^ary in ufing the marks of pronunciation, he hasexerted fuch induftry in this refpeft, by reiterated examination of each proof flieet beforeit was printed off, that he hopes there is not an error of any confequence throughout thewhole.

PROSODIAL GRAMMAR, &c.ISECTION I.Of Simple Sounds.N the Englifli alphabet there appear twenty-fixletters,abcdefghijklmnopqrftuvwxyz.But this alphabet is ill calculated to reprefent the fimplefounds of the Englifli tongue, as there are many ofthofe founds which have no letters to ftand for theirmarks. Two of the confonants are fuperfluous ; c andq : c having the found either of ^ or and .j ; q that ofk before a u when preceding another vowel in the famefyllable.

With regardto the vowels, two of them, / and u, as pronouncedby us, are marks of diphthongs ; and the onlyfounds we hear of real fimple vowels are thofe of a, c,and 0. Thus, deduiTbing the five confonant marksabove mentioned, and thofe of the two vowels, thereremain but nineteen letters to reprefent all the fimplefounds in our tongue, which in reality amount totwenty-eight ; confequently to make a complete alphabet,in which every fimple found ought to havea mark peculiar to itfelf, there ought to be nine morethat after the revival of letters we adopted the Romanalphabet, which became of general ufe throughoutturope, though it was by no means fuited to our tongue,on account of the great number of fimple founds containedin it, which were not found in the ancient Latin.To make up for this deficiency in the adoptedalphabet, there were in thofe days of ignorance fomany clumfy contrivances ufed, and from that time tothis fuch diverfity and irregularity in marking the fuperaboundingfounds, not upon fettled principles, butaccording to the whim and fafliion of the times, thatit became a work of immenfe time and labour, evento the beft educated natives, to give a right pronunciationto words in reading ; and it is renderedwholly impoffible for foreigners or provincials everto acquire it, from any afllftance hitherto given themby books.To afi'ord a clue through this intricate labyrinth,and to enable all, who will take the pains of becomingmaflers of the method here laid down, to acquirea juft pronunciation of our tongue, is one of the mainobjeds propofed in the following work.In order to this it will be necelTary in the firll placeto afcertain the number of fimple founds in our tongue.And firft I fliall begin with the vowels.Sche}ne ofcharacters or letters.

Thefe two are theonly genuine labial confonants ; that is, entirely formedby the lips : the other two, being partly labial, andpartly dental ; that is, they are formed by the applicationof the under lip to the upper teeth, as ef, ev.Here it is alfo to be obferved, that thefe two lettersare formed by the fame pofition of the organs, and theonly difference between them is, that ev, is formedby the voice and breath mixed ; ef, by the breath only.The next in order are the dental, as the feat oftheir formation is neareft to the lips. In forming edand et the tip of the tongue is prelfed againft the uppergums, almoft touching the teeth ; and there is noother difference between them than what was beforementioned with regard to the labials cb and ep ; thatin the one, the found can be continued ; in the other,it can not.

Thefame diftin(Sion is zlfo to be obferved here, they beingboth formed by the fame pofition of the organs, onlyezh is by the voice and breath, and ejh by the breathonly.Of this clafs there are but two that in ftriiSl proprietycan be called dental j and thofe are eth and etti,formed by the application of the tongue to the upperteeth, which are not direflly concerned in producingany of the other founds ; but as the feat of their formationis clofe to the teeth, they have obtained thename of dental, to diftinguifh them from thofe whofefeat is farther removed back towards the palate, andthence called palatine.The firft of this clafs are el and er, whofe feat offormation lies a little behind that of f

If thereforea foreigner wants to produce this found, he hasonly to raife the middle of his tongue into a gendecontad with the roof of his mouth in prorlbimcing anyof the nalal vowels ; and in this way ,the Frenchnafal vowel founded in the word dent will be convertedinto the Knglifh confcnant heard in the wordding-do'ig.With rcg\rd to diphthonc;?, t!-,e Englifli. havefeveral not to be found in the French tongue.

Theparticle ivith is fometimes afpirated, fometimes vocal ;afpirated before a confonant, vocal before a vowel ; astvlt^Jlancl^ -ivithout. And the fame is to be obfervedwhen it is not compounded, but in its detached ftate jas, w/VlT many more, n;ith all my heart.It has always its vocal found when followed by afinal mute e in the fame fyllable; as in bathe, breathe.When followed by a _y in the laft fyllable it has itaafpirate found, as^7«/'fl/Ay, healthy; except in the wordswreathy and worthy.In all other fituations of th, when in any middlefyllables of words, the moft general ri:le is, that it hasthe afpirate found before coiifonants, and the vocal beforevowels ; except in dcrivntive and compound words,which retain the found of their primitives ; thus loath'fome retains the primitive found of to loath, though precedinga confonant; and tootlTing the original afpirateof tooth though preceding a vowel.In a few inftances th is founded as it always is iaFrench, like a fingle / ; and thefe arc the words, thillythyme, Thames, and Thomas.ShThis is the proper mark for the found which I havecalled ejl}, to be found in /;«//, wijh ; and wherever itappears

I fhallnow fliew the rules in order by which they are governed.AA preceding more final confonants than one, followsin general the fame laws as when before a fingleone; as in caji, ant, gafp.Before r the fame rule is obferved of laying theaccent on the vowel ; as barn, harm, mart.When preceded by a w, and followed by an r,it has its third long found ; as wa rd, wa rm, thwa'rt.When preceded by a tt; and followed by any otherconfonants, it has the found of 6 ; as wafl>, watch,pronounced wofh, vvotfh.—To this the words waftand wifp are exceptions.am led fpit Jircp Jlriuk.But this rule refers only to fuch monofyllables ascontain but one vowel.EXCEPTIONS.1. When a precedes r the accent is on the vowel,which is thus made long, though it retains the famefound ; as car, bar, far.It has the found of 6 in 'iXdSy vjad ; and of a invjcr.2.

The vowel e has the found of / in yes, (yis)that of u in foil (sun), and ?< has its 2d found in put.Of Moncfyllables ending in more Confonanti than one.Here it is to be obferved, in the firft place, thatwhere the fame confonant is doubled at the end, as thetwo have only the found of a fingle one, the precedingrowtl is governed by the fame laws as if therewere but one : Ex. odd, Jhff, l.fs.

XXVUl A PROSODIAL GRAMMAR.SECTION VII.Of Dijfyllables.A S the pronunciation of Englifii words is chieflyregulated by accent, it will be neceflary in thefirft place to have a precife idea of that term.Accent with us means no more than a certain ftrefsof the voice upon one letter of a fyllable, which diftinguifliesit from all the other letters in a word.In monofyllables this may be called the accentedJetter ; in words of more fyllables than one, that whichcontains the letter fo diftinguifhed is called the accentedfyllable.We have already fcen in monofyllables thetffe£l ofaccent, according as it is laid on vowels or confonants.When it is on the confonant, the vowels haveuniformly their firft found, except only in the isvf inftanceswhere the found of another vowel is fubflitutedin the room of that prefented to the eye.When the accent is on a vowel, it has fometimesits fecond, fometimes its third found, according torules already laid down, but never its firft, exceptingonly the vowel a in a few inflances.It isjonly necefiary to obferve,that the fame laws ofaccent hold with regard to the accented fyllablcsof allother words, as were before laid down with regard toinonofyllable?. In order to afcertain the pronunciationof thofc words, the firft objed therefore muft beto point out the means of difcovering which is theaba'fe, befo're, forget', forewa'rn, mifgiv'e, outdo',una'rm, &c. All words compounded of the latterhave the accent for the moft part on the laft fyllable ;but there are exceptions with regard to the formeror Roman prefixes.I ft.

Inall cafes the accent remains the fame as in the primitive; as, cftablifh'J, deter'min'J, unboun'ded, cul'tivated.In ance.Polyfyllables in ance in general have the accent onthe antepenult, or lad fyll.ible but two.

Except when it is precededby a c or /, and then it is pronounced as onefyllable, with the found of jlmife ;as, deficience, patience,pronounced dcfiflunfe, pajhenfe.In bk.The terminating lie is always accounted a f)llable,though in ftriiS propriety it is not fo ; for to conftitutea fyllable it is requifite that a vowel fhould be foundedin it, which is not the cafe here ; for though there isone prcfented to the eye at the end, yet it is only e finalmute, and tlie bl are taken into the articulation of theformer fyllable; but in pointing out the feat of the ac-L GRAMMAR. .cent I fhall confider it in the ufual way as forming afyllable.GENERALRULE.As the words terminating in ble are for the moft partadjeiTlives formed from verbs, in general they followtheir primitives in their accent ; as, reproveable,prop'agable, abol'ilhable, dif'ciplinuble, difcriminabic;from reprove, prop'agate, ^"c. Except remediable,irrep'arable, dif'putable ; from rem'edy, repair, difputc.In general the accent is thrown as far back inpolyfyllables as the fourth and fifth fyllables ; as am'-icable, viOlable, mon'ofyllable— and when the accentisno farther back than the antepenult, it is either whenthe word follows the primitive, as, advifable, derivable;or when two confonants come together in that fituation,as,- intrac'table, delec'table, refran'gible. Tothis ac'-cep-table, and its derivatives, are exceptions.All triflyllabic words have the accent on the antepenult,except compounds by prefixes to dilTyllablcs ;as, unable, unftable.Incle.All trifTyllabic words have the accent on the antepenult.Examp. mir'acle, or'acle, vehicle. The otherpolyfyllables have the accent farther back j as, tab'ernacle,rec'cptacle, con'venticle, &c.In die, fle, glc, kle, pie, tie.To all thefe terminations is to be applied the fameobfervation that was made with regard to ble,that theydo not really conftitute fyllables, but are united withthe former only in their confonant founds, without theintervention of any vowel.There are few words of more than two fyllables inany of the above terminations, and the accent is onthe letter immediately preceding them, whether vowelor confonant ; as, cradle, fad'dle, fnaf'fle, eagle, ftrug'gle,tac'kle, buc'kle, ap'ple, pur'ple, &c.There are few polyfyllables of the termination piewhich have the accent on the antepenult. ; and thefeare, man'ciple, prin'ciple, quad'ruple, fex'tuple, andall in uple.

Of each of thefe in their order. And firft ofARTICULATION.A good articulation confifts, in giving every letterin a fyllable its due proportion of found, according;to the moil approved cuRom of pronouncing it ; andin making fuch a diP;in6lion between the fyllables ofwhich words are compofcd, that the ear ftiall with^out difficulty acknowledge their number ; and perceive,at once, to which fyllable each letter belongs.Where thefe points are not obferved, thearticulation is proportionally defedlive.Diftinctnefs of articulation depends, primarily,upon being able to form the Ample elements orletters by the organs of fpeech,in the manner beforedefcribed in treating on that fubject ; and in the nextplace, in diflinguifhing properly the fyllables ofwhich words are compofed from each other j whichcan only be done by a juft pronunciation.The chief fource of indiftin£lnefs, is too great aprecipitancy of utterance. To cure this, the moftefFeClual method will be, to lay afide an hour everyday, to be employed in the praClice of reading aloud,in a manner much flower than is neceffary. Thisftiould be done in the hearing of fome perfon,whofcoffice it fliould be to remind the reader, if at anytime he fliould perceive him mending his pace, andfalling into his old habit.There is one caufe of indiftinft articulation, whichoperates very generally, and which arifes from thevery genius of our tongue; fo that, unlefs greatcare be taken, it is fcarcely poffible to efcape beingaffetled by it. Every word in our language, compofedof more fyllables than one, has one fyllableaccented, and thus peculiarly diftinguiflied from thereft ; and if this accented fyllable be properly articulated,the word will be fufficiently known, eventhough the others are founded very confufedly.Thisproduces a negligence with regard to the pronunciationof the other fyllables ; which, though it maynot render the fenfe obfcure, yet deftroys all meafureand proportion, and confequently all harmony ine 2 delivery.

This fault is fo general, that I would recommendit to all who are affefled by it, to pronouncethe unaccented fyllables more fully than isi^eccliai y,letter.till they .ire cured of it.OfACCENT.Every word in our language, of more fyllablesthan one, has one of the fyllables diftinguifhed fromthe reft in this manner ;and every monofyllable hasa letter. Thus, in the word hat' the / is accentedin ha'te, the vowel a. In cub', the h; in cu'bc the^. Hence every word in the language, which mayproperly be called J"o, has an accent ;for tjie particles,fuch as a, the, to, /«, &c. which are unaccented,can fcarcely be called words, which fecmsto be implied in the name given to thera, that ofarticles ; and in that ftate they are the fitter to dlfchargetheir office, by this diiFerence madefbetweenthem and words. So that as articulation is the eflVnceof fyllables, accent is the efience of words ;which,without it, would be nothing moK than a merefucceffion of fyllables. Thus fimple as is theftate of the Englifh accent, there is no article offpeech which has occafioned more perplexity in thofewho have treated of it, merely by confounding itwith the accents of the ancients, which weie quitedifferent things.As this point has been amply difcuffcdia the Leaures on Elocution, and the Art ofReading, the curious reader is referred to thof: works,under the head Accent. -The great diftinftion of our accent depends upon itsfeat; which may be either upon a vowel, or a confonant.Upon a vowel, as in the words, glory, father,holy. Upon a confonant, as in the words, hab'it,bo/row, bat' tic. When the accent is on the vowel,,the fyllable is long ; bccaufe the accent is made byAccent, in the Enslifh language, means a certaindwelling upon the vowel. When it is on the confonant,Ihefs of the voice upon a particular letter of athe fyllable is fhort ; becaufc the accent isfyllable, which diftinguifhes it from the reft, and,made by paffing rapidly over the vowel, and giving aat the fame time, diiHnguinies the fyllable itfelf tofmart ftroke of the voice to the following confonant.which it belongs, from the others which compofe theThus the words «^', led', bid', rod', cub', are all fhort,.WorJ.the voice paffing quickly over the vowel to the confonant: but for a contrary reafon, the words all,Thus in the word hab"iU the accent upon the h,diftinguifhes that letter, from the others, and thelaid, bide,, road, cube, are long ; the accent being oafirft fyllable from the laft.

Now the reafonof this praaice among the Greeks, was, that as theiraccents confifted in change of notes, they could notbe diftin£lly exprcfltd but by the vowels ;in utteringwhich, the paffage is entirely clear for the voiceto ifTue, and not interrupted or ftopptd by the differentpofrtions of the ofgans in forming the confonants.But as our accent confifts in ftrefs only, itcan juft as well be placed on a confonant as a vowel.By this method of marking the accented fyllable,our compilers of didionaries, vocabularies, and fpcll-'ing-books, muft niiilead provincials and foreignersin the pronunciation of perhaps one half of the wordsin our language. For inftance ; if they fnould lookfor the word endeavour, finding the accent over thevowel e, they will of courfe found it end/avour.

A P R O S O D I A L GRAMMAR.language ; in which, the diverfity of their pronunciationfrom that of the people of England chieflyconfifts. It is a pity that our compilers of dictionariesfhould have fallen into fo grofs an error,as the m.irking of the accents in the right way wouldhave afforded one of the moft general and certainguides to true pronunciation, that is to be found withiefpe£l to our tongue ; for it isaconftant rule throughoutthe whole,^that whenever the accent is on theconfonant, eachnpreceding vowel has "its firft fhortfound, as fet forth in the fcheme of vowjIs, andexemplified in the words, hat, bet, fit, nit, bit ;to which there is no exception in the whole language,except in the few iuft.inces where one voweluiurps the power of another.It has been faid above, that every word in ourlanguage has one accented fyllable ; but it is to beobferved, that in fome of our longer polyfyllablesthere are two accents to be perceived ; one ftronger,the other fainter.Thus, in the wordexpos'''tulator'y,the ftronger accent is on the fyllable pos'^j butthere is a fainter one on the lad fyllable but one,founded tur , expos tulatur -ry ; but this makes nodifFert-nce with regard to the rule, as the primarvaccent is fo much more forcible than the fecondaryone, as evidently to fliew that it is but one wordwhich contains both.To fuch as have the right ufe of accent in commondifcourfe, I fh.ill only lay down one rule with regardto it, in reading and fpeaking in public : which is,that they fnould always take care to lay it upon thefame letter of the fyllable in reading, as they are accuftomedto do in converfation ; and never to lay anyllrefs upon any other fyllable. For there are few whoeither read aloud, or fpeak in public, that do not tranfgrefsthis law of accent, by dwelling equally upon differentfyllables in the fame word : fuch as fo'r-tu'ne,na tu'ie, en'cro'achment', con'-jec tu're, pa'-tien'ce,&c. But this is not uttering words, but fyllables ;which properly pronounced are always tied together byan accent ; as for'tune, na ture, encroachment, conjec'ture,pa'tience. Any habit of this fort gives anunnatural conftrained air to fpeech, and fhould thereforebe carefully avoided by all who deliver themfelvesin public.0/ PRONUNCIATION.Pronunciation may be confidcred in a twofold lightfirft, with regard to propriety ; fecondly, with regardto elegance. With regard to propriety, it is necellarythat each word fliould have its due accent, and eachletter in it its proper found. This is all that is requiredin the pronunciation of words feparately confidered ;and is the chief point treated of in the former part ofthis Grammar. With refpe(St to elegance, befide propriety,proportion of found alfo is to be taken in ; andthis regards the delivery of words as arranged in fentences; and this is the point which I fliall now chieflyconfider.As there has been no method hitherto laid open ofattaining even the firft part, I mean the mere proprietyof pronouncing words, it is no wonder that thefecond, or ornamental part, has been entirely ncgle£led.That which gives delight to the ear in theutterance of articulate founds, is founded upon -thefame principle as that which pleafes in mufical compofition,I mean proportion ; aad this has a twofoldreference,, to time, and to found. To the former ofthefe I fliallgive the profodian name of Quantity, to thelatter that of Quality. At prefent I fhall confiderquantity only, referring the other article to anotherhead.Our early notions of quantity are all imbibed fromthe Latin profoJy ; in which, the diflerence betweenlong and fliort fyllables is eftablithed by rules thathave no reference to the ear, the fola competent judgein this cafe; infomuch that fyllables are called long,which are the ftiorteft that can be uttered by the organsof fpeech ; and others are called fhort, which take upmuch longer time in pronouncing than the former.The mind thus taking a bias under the prejudice offalfe rules, never after arrives at a knowledge of thetrue nature of quantity : and accordingly we find thatall attempts hitherto to fettle the profody of our language,have been vain and fruitlefs.In treating of the funple elements or letters, Ihave fhewn that fome, both vowels and confonants,are naturally fhort ; that is, whofe founds cannotpolTibly be prolonged ; and thefe are the founds ofe, J, and u, of vocal founds, and three pure mutes^k, p, tj

PROSODIALGRAMMAR.k, p, t, of the confonant ; as in the words beck,lip, cut.I have fliewn alfo, that the founds of all the othervowels, and of the confonant femivowels, may beprolonged to what degree we pleafe ; but at the famelime it is to be obferved, that all thefe may alfo bereduced to a fliort quantity, and are capable of beinguttered in as fliort a fpace of time, as thofe which arenaturally fhort. So that they who fpealc of fyllablesas abfolutelv and in their own nature long, the commoncant of profodians, fpeak of a non-entity : forthough, as I have fliewn above, there are fyllablesabfolutely fliort, which cannot pofiibly be prolonged byany effort of the fpeaker ;yet it is in his power tofhorten or prolong the others to what degree hepleafes.I have faid that in pronouncing words, when theaccent is on the vowel, the fyllable is long ; when onthe confonant, fliort ; by which I mean, that theReader fliould dwell on the vowel when accented, inorder to make it long ; and pafs rapidly over it, givinga fmart ftroke to the following confonant, when theaccent is on that. But this rule is fo far from beingattended to, that for the mod part the accented vocalfyllables are pronounced in as fhort a fpace of time, asand femivowels, and their fubdivlfion into pure andimpure. It was there fliewn, that the found of thepure mutes cannot be at all prolonged ; that of the impure,for a little time ; and that of the femivowels,during pleafure. As the quefl:ion now is about prolongingthe found of confonants, what I have to fayon that head mufl: chiefly refer to the femivowels.Of thefe the found of fome is cifagreeable whencontinued ; of others pleafing to th(y ear. Of theformer kind are, m, r, f, /, eJJ}, ezhi wlT, eth : of thelatter /, n, v, z, ing. M, having its found entirelythrough the nofe, is difagreeable if it continues anylength of time after its formation ; as it refemblesmore the lowing of oxen, than an articulate found,i?, v/hen continued, is alfo a harfli found, like thefnarling of curs. S is only a hifs, like that of ferpents.F, prolonged, refembles the blowing of windthrough a chink, and like s, retains no mark of anarticulate found, after it is once formed. Ezh, ejl}yeth, ct^, have too much of the breath mixed in formingthem, to make their found agreeable when continued.The only founds therefore which can beprolonged with pleafure to the ear, are the femivowels/, H, eVf ez, trig. Not but all the others will admit ofprolongation on certain occafions, which fhall be explainedhereafter.the accented confonant ; by which means all proportionalquantity in our tongue is utterly deftroyed, andthe whole appears a rapid gabble of fliort f) liable?.To obviate this, I would recommend it to everyone to pay a particular attention to every vocal accentedfyllable, and to dwell upon it fo long as to makeit double the quantity of the fhort ones. Withoutthis, fpeech muft be deprived of all fmoothnefs andharmony.It has been faid above, that when the accent is onRules to he ohfervtd In founding the Confjnaiils.I. None of them are to be prolonged except whenthe accent is upon them ; which can only happenwhen they are preceded by a fliort founding vowel : astell., can, love. When a long found precedes, thevoice muft dwell upon the vowel, and take the confonantinto the fyllable in its fhorteft: found ; otherwife,the confonant the fyllable fliould be founded fliort,were they both dwelt upon,the fyllable would take upand this rule in general holds good. Yet there arecafes in which the found of the confonant may bedwelt upon, and the fyllable thus rendered long; ofwhich I fliall fpeak more at large under the next head,that of Empl.afis. Jn the mean time, I fhall pointout the confonants, which, in certain circumlianccs,will admit of fuch prolongation, and lay down fomcrules for the proper pronunciation of all.The reader is here dcfired to recollcdt the divifion,made in the beginning, of the confonants into mutesthe time of two long founds, and would therefore fcemto be two; as va le, rii-n, bra-ve, diiy-s. This isan article very neceflary to be attended to by thenatives of Scotland, who are apt to prolong the foundof a fcmivowel after a long vowel. On the otheriiand, the people of England are to be cautioned againfirunning the found of the vowel loo quickly into thefollowing confonant, which is too generally thepractice, to the great diminution of the numter of ourlong fyllables,12. 2.

When confonants begin a word, or a fyllable,they muft be founded fhort ; and great care muft betaken, that before their union with the followingletter, they be not preceded hy any confufed found oftheir own. This is very difagreeable to the ear, andyet is no uncommon fault. The not attending totliis in pronouncing the letter s, has been the chiefcaufe of our language being called by foreigners theHiffing language ; though in reality it does not abound{o much in that letter as either the Greek or Roman ;the f.nal s having, for the moft part, with us, the foundof z. But if care be not taken early in forming thepronuncia'.ion, people are apt to contrail a habit ofhifling bciore they utter the found of s, as well as ofcontinuiiig it at the end. This confufed found at theEmphafis difcharges, in fentences, the fame kind ofoffice that acceiu does in words. As accent is thelink which ties fyliables together, and forms them intowords ; fo emphafis unites words together, and formsthem into fentences, or members of fentences. Asaccent dignifies the fyllable on which it is laid, andmakes it more diftinguifhed by the ear than the reft >(o emphafis ennobles the word to which it belongs, andprefents it in a ftronger light to the underftanding.Accent is the mark which diftinguifhes words fromeach other, as fimple types of our ideas, without re-'ference to the mutual relation in which they ftand toeach other. Emphafis is the mark which points outtheir fevi ral degrees of relationfhip, in their variouscombinations, and the rank v/hch they hold in the mind-Were there no accents, words would be refolved into theiroriginal fyliables : were there no emphafis, fentenceswould be refolved into their original words; and in thiscafe, the hearer muft be at the pains himfelf, firft, ofmaking out the words, and afterwards their meaning.VV hereas, by the ufe of accent and emphafis, word?, andtheir me3ning,being pointed out by certain marks, at thefame time that they are uttered, the hearer has all thetrouble laved, but that of liftening ; and can accompanythe fpeaker at the fame pace that he goes with as clearscomprehenfion of the matter offered to his confideration,as the fpeaker himfelf has, if he delivers himfelf well.From this account it might appear, that emphafisis only a more forcible accent than ordinary, laid uponthe word to which it belongs, and that it is exaiflly ofthe fame nature, differing only in degree of ftrength :an opinion, which, to the great prejudice of elocution,has too generally prevailed. But there is an abfoluteand conftitutional difference between accent and emphafis,as there certainly ought to be, which confiftsin this ; that every emphatic fyllable, befides a greaterftrefs, is marked alfo by a change of note in the voice.To fhew the neceflity of this, we need only obferve,that the mind, in communicating its ideas, is in acontinual ftate of activity, emotion, or agitation, fromthe different effects which thofe ideas produce on themind

xl P R O S O D I A L GRAMMAR,jiiind of the fjieaker. Now, as the end of fuch communicationis not merely to lay open the ideas, butalio all the different feelings which they excite in himwho utters them, there muft be fome other marks,therefore man interfere?, by fubftituting any otlicrnotes in the room of thofe which nature has annexedto the afts and feelings of the mind, fo far the languageof emotions is corrupted, ^d fails of its end.bcfide words, to manifeft thefe ; as words uttered in amind, perfeflly free from all aflivity or emotion.All that pafles in the mind of manmay be reducedto two clafTes, which I fliall call. Ideas and Emotions.By ideas, I mean, all thoughts which rife and pafs infucccffion in the mind of man : by emotions, all exertionsof the mind in arranging, combining, and fepsratingits ideas ; as well as all the effects producedon the mind itfelf, by thofe ideas, from the more violentagitation of the paflions, to the calmer feelings,produced by the operation of the intelleft and fancy.In fliort, thought is the objeft of the one; internalfeeling, of the other.That which ferves to exprefstheformer, I call the language of ideas ; and the latter, thelanguage of emotions. Words are the figns of theone ; tones, of the other. But there is an ed'entialdifference between the two, which merits our utmoftattention. The language of ideas is wholly arbitrary ;that i?, words, which are the figns of our ideas, haveno natural connexion with them, but depend purelyupon convention, in the different focieties of men,where they are employed ;which is fufficiently provedby the divcrfity of languages fpoken by the differentnations of the world. But it is not fo with regard tothe language of emotions. -For as the communicationof thefe internal feelings, was a matter of much moreconfequence in our fecial intercourfe, than the mereconveying of ideas; fo, the Author of our being didnot leave the invention of this language, as in theother cafe, toman; but {lamped it himfelf upon ournature, in the fame manner as he has done with regardto the reft of the animal world, who ail c.\prcfstheir various feelings by various tones. Only ours,from the fuperior rank that we hold, is infinitely morecomprehenfive ; as there is not an aift of the mind, anexertion of the fancy, or emotion of the heart, whichhave not annexed to them their peculiar tone andnotes of the voice, by which they are to be expreffed ;and which, when properly ufcd, excite in the minds of tones. But I fhall defer fpcaking of the method toothers, tuned invariably by the hand of nature in uni-be ufed in order to accomplifh this point, till I havefon to thofc notes, analogous emotions, Whenevertor the chords of the human heart, thus tuned inmonotonous ftate, can only reprefent a fimilar ftate of uiiifon to the natural notes only, will never vibrate incorrefpondence to thofe of the artificial kind.The means by which this expreflive langunge ofnature has been corrupted in the different nations ofthe worldj have been fct forth at large in the fecondleisure on the Art of Reading ; at prefent I fhall contentmyfelf with laying open the caufe of its havingbeen in a great meafure loft to us in this~*country.Which is nothing elfe than the very defeftive and erroneousmethod in which all are trained in the art ofreading ; w'hereby all the various, natural, expreflivetones of fpeech are fuppreffed ;and a few artificial,unmeaning, reading notes are fubftitutcd in their room.Nothing can more clearly confirm the truth of thispofition, than the following obfcrvation—That thereare few people, who fpeak Englifli without a provincialtone, that have not the moft accurate ufeofemphafis,when they utter their fentiments in commondifcourfe; and the reafon that they have not the fameufe of it, in reading aloud the fentiments of others,or delivering their own in public, is, that they are aptto fubftitute the artificial tones and cant of reading,to which they have been habituated from their childhood,in the room of thofe of the natural kind.From this view of the caufe of the diforder, theremedy of courfe fuggefts itfelf. The firft necefftryftep is, to get rid of the artificial notes fiiperinducedby the bad habit of reading ; and to fiipply theirplaces with thofe of the natural kind. If it be afked,how we are to acquire the ufe of the proper notesin reading, after we have got rid of the others ; myanfwer is, that we have them all prepared within ourfelves,ready to ftart forth if properly fought for. Inorder to this, it is neceffary that each reader fhoulJnot only underftand, but feel the fentiments of theAuthor; and if he enters Into tlie fpirit of the Author'sfentiments, as well as into the meaning of his words,he will not fail to deliver the words in pioperly variedtreated cf the next article, that ofPAUSES

And the only general rule, by which paufescan be regulated properly, has been either unknown,or unattended to ; which is, that paufes, for the moftpart, depend on emphafis. I have already Ihewn,.that words are fufficiently diftinguifhed from eachother, by accent ; but to point out their meaningwhen united in fentences, emphafis and paufes areneceffary. As emphafis is the link which connectswords together, and forms them into fentences, or intomembers of fentences ; when in the fame fentencethere are more than one member, and more than oneemphatic word, that there maybe nomiflake with regardto the number of words belonging to each emphafis,at the enH of every fuch member of a fentence, thereought to be a perceptible paufe. If it be afked, whya paufe fliould any more be neceffary to emphafis thanto accent ? or why emphafis alone, will not fufficientlydiftjnguifli the members of fentences from each other,without paufes, as accent does words ? the anfwer is'obvious ithat we are pre-acquainted with the found ofwords, and cannot miftake them when diftinctly projiorunced,however rapidly: but we are not pre-acquaintedwith the meaning of fentences, which muftbe pointed out to us by the reader or fpeaker ; and asthiscah orily be^ done, by evidently {hewing whatwords appertain to each emphatic one ; unlefs a paufebe made 'at the end of the laft word belonging to theformer etrphatic one, we fhall r.ot be- able to knowat all timef, to which of the two emphafes the intermediatewords are to be referred ; and this mufl oftenbreed confufion in the fenfc.Thus unfit as the flate of punfluafion' is to anfwereven its own end, the teachers of the art of readinghave annexed another office to it, quite foreign to itsnature, which has been attended with the word confequenceswith regard to delivery ;and that is by affociatitigcertain artificial notes of the voice to thefoflops. How little fitted they are to anfwer this end,we may judge, by confidering that the notes precedingpaufes and refts in difcourfe, are exceedingly numerousand various, according to the fenfe of thewords, the emotions of the mind, or the exertions offancy ; and cannot poffibly be reprefented by fo fmalla number as four or five marks, which are ufcd asflops : yet all this immenfe variety are fwallowed upand loft in the reading notes, which ufually confiflonly of two ; one annexed to the flops which markmembers of fentences, as comma, femicolon, and colon ;the other to the full ftop, when the fentence is complete.By fome, the pupils are taught to elevate theirvoice in tiie former cafe, and to deprefs it in the latter.By others, the depreffed note is ufed in both cafes, onlydiffering in degree.Here then is to be found the true fource of the badmanner of reading and fpeaking in public, that fogenerally prevails : which is, that we are taught tdread in a different way, with different tones and cadences,from thofe which we ufe in fpeaking ; and thisartificial manner, being ufed inftead of the natural one,in all recitals and repetitions at fchool, as well as inreading, generally infedts the delivery of all who after^wards fpeak in public. For they are apt to confiderthis fpecics of delivery, which they have been taught,as fuperior to that kind which comes of courfe, withoutany pains ; and therefore judge it the moft properto be ufed on all public occafions. B«t as there isfomething in this monotonous manner of reading,againft which nature herfelf revolts ; when they arsto delivbr their own fentiments in fpeaking, each individual,not having been inftrucled in the proper ufeof fuitably varied and expre/five tones, falls, into acertain cant or tune, by certain elevations and depreffionsof the voice, to which all fentences are fet alike;and this turie, being void both of harmony and exprcffion,is at orice difcordant to the car, and difgufting to theiunder-

xlii A PROSODIAL GRAMMAR.iinderftanding. Thus has this unnatural mode of utterance,fpread itfelf in the fenate-houfe, the pulpit,the bar, and every place where public declamation isu'ed ; ipfomiich that the inftances of a juft and natur;ilelocution are very rare : the want of which ismoft generally and fenfibly felt in our churches.Having (hewn the many al>ufcs committed in thetwo mofl important articles of delivery, emphafis andflop?, it now remains to point out the remedy.The fource of thefe abufes may be farther traced,by attentively weighing the following obfervationThat no illiterate man ever ufes faifc emphafcs, tones,or ftops, infpeaking; it is only the literate, thofe thathave learned to read, that can fall into errors of thatlort. For, as our ideas pafs in train in our minds,and arc there conne(5led or divided, the illiterate man,without rule ar thought, exhibits them exactly as theypals in his mind. To the idea that makes the moftforcible imprefllon there, he gives the greateft force ofexprefiion in utterance; and therefore the ftrongeft emphaflsto the word which (iands as its mark. And whateveremotions are excited in him by thofe ideas, hecannot help manifefting by fuitable tones, looks, andgeftures ; as thefe neceflarily proceed from an originallaw of his conftitution, and without pains cannot befupprefled. Whereas the man who has learned totead, has been taught to connedt or feparate his words,by arbitrary rules of flopping, which are not takenfrom the natural train of our ideas. He has no markto point out the moft important word, which is thereforeoften neglected, or the emphafis transferred toanother of lefs confequencc. He is not taught to annexto his wordf, any part of the language of emotions,tones, looks, and geftures; which are thereforewholly omitted, or abfurdly applied. In fliort, as inthe whole written language there is nothing ofFcrcd tothe eye but letters and flops; the teacher of the art ofreading thinks be has done his duty, when he has inflrudedyou in the manner of fpelling thofe tetters properly,fo as to form them into words ; and in the ufe ofthe flops to feparate fentences, and members of fentcncesfrom each other. It is here therefore the remedyis to be fought for, by. fupplying and correflingwhat is erroneous and defeilive in the ait of reading.For it is manifcft from what has been faiJ bcfoie, tliatif reading could be brought to be exadly ihc fame13thing as fpeaking, a juft and forcible delivery wouldof courfe follow, though more might be required tomake it graceful and pleafing to the ear. Howevereafy it may appear at firfl fight to put this in praflice,yet upon trial it would be found more difficult than isimagined. Confirmed bad habits in a thing whichwe daily praiSife, can be removed only by a right method,and daily pradlice according to that method.Such a method is what I am now about to lay down ;and I dare promife that whoever will purfue it, willfind efFedls from it, fuitable to the pains that he fhalltake.The chief error in writing, is the manner of flopping,different from the natural train of our ideas :and the chief defecf, the want of fome mark for eachemphatic word; which is the caufe of neglecting, ormifapplying emphafis. To get the better of bad habitsarifing from thefe, I would propofe the following method.If a perfon has a mind to read any pafTage correflly,let him firfl write it out without flops. Let him thenconfider the general meaning and purport of the words,and enter into the fpirit of the fentiment. Let him afkhimfelf—How fhould I deliver this, fuppofing it to bethe immediate efFufion of my own mind ? Let him tryto do this. He will not at firfl be able to hit the mark,for his habitual reading tones will force themfelves uponhim for fome time ; but at every trial, with that poirrtin view, he will gain ground. It will be of greataffiftance to him, if he can get a friend to hear himfentence by fentence, ftill alking him— Is that theway in which I (hould utter that fentence, fuppofingit to proceed from the immediate fentiments of mymind? For in that cafe he may be often informed ofhis ufmg thofe artificial tones of reading, which, fromhabit, may not ftrike his own ear, though they willimmediately be perceived by another's. A(ttr this lethim flop it, according to the method which he hasfettled of fpeaking it : but let him not ufe the commonflops of writing, the fight of which, would revivethe ufe of their afTociated tones ; inftead of thefe lethim employ fmall inclined lines, to be placed at thetopof the line behind the word, and not at the bottom ;.in order as little .TS polFible to revive the idea of theufual flops. To anfwcr this end four marks will befulficient,as thus—For

APROSODIAFor the fhorteft paufe a fmall inclined line, thusFor the fccond, double the time of the former, twoAnd for the third, or full ftop, threeTo -mark a paufe longer than any belonging tothe ufual flops, two horizontal lines, as thus z=The manner of reducing this to practice, may beniade clear by the following example :D early belo\ed brethren =: The fcripture movethus ' in fu^ndry places ' to acknow lege and confe'fsour manifold hns and wickednefs and that wefliOL"ld not dilTe'mble'' nor clo\e them' before theface of Almighty God' our HeaVenly Father" butconfeYs them with an humble' lowly' penitent'and obVdient heartto the end that we may obtainforgiVenefs of the fame ' by hi^s ' i^nfinite goodnefsand mercy'''Having fettled the ftops,let him afterwards markeach emphatic word, by placing a floping line incliningto the right, over the accented letter of fuchword, as is done in the above example. To this accentedfyllable let him conftantly endeavour to givethe peculiar note which nature herfelf has annexedto the fentiment, and this will fcrve as a key-note orftgulator of the others. I would recommend it tohim not to proceed to another paflage, till, by frequenttrials, he has made himfelf niaftcr of one ;and his beft way of knowing this, will be, to read itto different perfons, at difFerent times, ftill afkingthem the queftion before mentioned ; and he may bepretty fure, when they are agreed in opinion, that hehas accompliftied the point. From this paflage lethim proceed to another; and fo on, ftill makingchoice of diverfity of flyle and matter ; and it is inconceivable,when once he fhall have made himfelfinafler of a few paflages in that way, how quick hisprogrefs will be afterv/ards. But ftill he muft notindulge himfelf for fome time, in reading any thing,but with this particular view, otherwife his old habitwill counteradt/his progrefs in the new way.But it may be faid, that though his manner maybe changed, in reading thofe paflages that are markedin the propofed way, his old habit will prevail whenhe reads fuch as are written in the cuftomary manner.To prevent this, I would ad\ife him, after he has5naxkcd any paflage, and made himfelf mafter of it,L GRAMMAR. xliiito read the fame paflage aloud as ufually written orprinted ; and if this fhould occafion any differencein him, from the manner he had before fettled, lethim read it over and over till he has brought it to bethe fame. This will make him attentive to theerrors and defects in th'- graphic art, and he willcome gradually to negle(5t thofe falfe guides, the ftops ;and learn to be attentive only to the main drift andfcope of each fentence. But as it will require longpradtice, before he will be able to do this at fight, Iwould recommend it to him not to read any thingaloud, for fome time at leaft, till he has caft his eyeover it, and taken in the general fenfe of the paflage.And I would alfo advlfe him not to deliver any thingfrom notes in public, without ufing the marks beforementioned, till habit fliall have fettled him inthe right way.This method, Ample as it is, I can vouch fromexperience, will, if properly followed, changq theartificial and unafteiSting, to the natural and forciblemanner of utterance. And whoever can accompliflithat point, will certainly obtain the chief end ofdelivery, that of gaining attention, and malcing animpreflion on his auditory.There is one article relative to the intonation oithe ftops, which, though of the utmoft importanceto a tuft and graceful delivery, has never yet beenpointed out, and which, as demanding the utmoftattention, I have referved for the laft place. In theufual method of managing the voice .vith refpe£t tothe ftops, we are only taught either to rtife or lowerit, according to the nature of the ftops ; but thereis a third thing to be done of more frequ.'Kt ufe,and as cflentially ncceflary, which i«, fufpendingthe voice before certain paufe?, without any changeof note. The method of pointing out to the ear theclofe of a fentence, or a full completion of thefenfe, is by a depren*ed note. That of marking themembers of fentences, or incomplete fenfes, is eitherbv an elevated or fufpended note. The elevated notesfhould be chiefly appropriated to the c.iphatic fyllables,and fhould hardly ever otherwife precedepaufes, except in notes of admiration, interrogation,or impaflioned difcourfe ; the incomplete membersof all other fentences ftiould be marked only by af z fufpenfioH

xliv A P R O S O D I A L GRAMMAR.fufpenfion of the voice, in the fame individual note,as if it had proceeded without interruption to thenext member of the fentence. They who do otherwife,if they elevate the voice at the clofc of thefmaller members, fall into a tune or cant runningthrough all fentences alike. If they deprefs it, theymake the members appear fo many detached fentences,and deftroy that concatenation of the parts,\vithout which the complete fenfe of the whole cannever clearly be manifefted. They who have beenaccullon.ed to make fome change of note before allflops, will find it very difficult at firft to fufpend theirvoice without fuch change ; and their beft methodto attain it in reading will be, at firft, to run thewords of the former member, into the firft of thelatter, without .any paufe, attending to the notewhich they ufe in that cafe; then let them try toflop at that word in the fame note, which will bethen juft frefti on the ear. But they will have a ftillmore certain method, by having recourfc to the generalrule before laid down, and aflcing therhfelveshow they would utter thofe words, if they were fpeaking,not reading them.Having faid all that is neccflary on the intonationof the paufes, it now remains to fay fomethingon the time of their duration. In this refp'^iSf, thegreat fault almoft univerfally committed, is that ofmaking them too ftiort. As every member of a fenlencecontains fome idea of more or lefs importanceto the drift of the whole, there ought to be a fufficientpaufe at the end of each member, togive timefor each idea to make its due impreffion on the mind,and the proportion of time in the paufe fiiould be regulated,by the importance of each idea ; or by theclofer, or more remote connexion which it haswith the main objedt of the fentence. Paufes indifcourfe anfwer the fame end that fliades do inpictures; by the proper ufe of which, the objects fbndout diftinilly to the eye; and without which, werethe colours to run into one another, it would bedifficult to difcriminatc the fuvcral figures of thecampofition. In order to get the better of this badhabit of running fentences, and their members, tooquickly into one another, I would recommend it toevery reader to make all his paufes longer than isneceflary, till by degrees he brings them to their dueproportion.Of PIT the C H and M A N A G E l.l E N T cfthe VOICE.Thefe are articles of the utmoft importance, togive due force and proportion to all the others. Inorder to be heard with fatisfaiStion, it is necefliiry thatthe fpeaker fljoulJ deliver himfelf with eafe.But ifhe does not know how to pitch his voice properly, hecan never have the due management of it ; and bisutterance will be painful to himfelf, and irkfome tohis hearers.Every fpeakcr, who is not corrupted by bad habits,has three pitches in his voice ; the high, low, andmiddle pitch. The middle, is that which is ufedin common difcourfe; from which he either rifes orfalls, according as the matter of his difcourfe, oremotions of his mind require. This middle pitchjtherefore, is what ought to be generally ufed, fortwo reafons ; firft, becaufe the organs of the voiceare flronger, and more pliable in this pitch, fromconftant ufe : and fecondly, becaufe it is more eafyto rife or fall from that pitch, to high or low, withregular proportion.Moft pcrfons, through v^ant of fkill and praftice,when they read or fpeak in public, fall into one ofthe extremes. Either through timidity and diffidence,they ufe. the low pitch, in which they are not heardat all, or with fo much trouble to the llftener, asfoon to w^ary attention : or, if they aim at avoidingthis fault, they run into the high pitch ; which Isprodudtive of confequences equally bad. The organsof the voice in this unufual pitch, are foorlwearied ; and languor and hoarfenefs enfue. Andas thp, reafpn for continuing it, will be equally ftrongduring the whole difcoiufe, ns for the firft fettingouiin it, the fpeaker muft lofe ail the benefits v/hicharife from variety, and fall into a difgulting monotpny.The prevalence of this praflice arifes from a commonmiftike in thofe who fpeak, for the firft time,in a large room, and bef6r

PROSODIAL GRAMMAR. xlvin their common pitch of voice, and therefore changeit to a higher. Thus they confound two verydiftinct things, maicing high and low, the fame withloud and foft. Loud and foft in fpcaking, is likethe frjrii and fiano in mufic ; it only refers to thedifferent degrees of force ufed in the fame key :v.'hereas high and low, imply a change of key. Sothat the bufinefs of every fpeaker is, to proportionthe force or loudnefs of voice to the fize of theroom, and number of his auditors, in its ufual pitch.If it be larger than ordinary, he is to fpeak louder,not higher, in his ufual key, not in a new one.And v/hoever negleifts this, will never be able tomanage his voice with eafe to himfelf, or fatisfactionCO his hearers. He who delivers himfelf in amoderate pitch, whenever his fubjcft demands thathe fhould rife to a higher, or fink to a lower, doesit with eafe, and in due proportion ; and producesthe efFe(fts which are to be expected from fuch change,and agreeable variety. While he who takes a highpitch, cannot rife upon occafion, without runninginto difcord; nor fink, with any rule of proportionto guide him. They who, to avoid this fault, runinto the oppofite extreme, and begin in a lower pitchthan is natural to them, err indeed on the fafer fide,but are equally diftant from the point of truth. Itis true, it is more eafy to rife gradually and proportionalI v, than to defcend ; but while they remainin thnt key, it will appear equally unnatural, andmore languid than the other ; and they will be veryapt, through the body of their difcourfe, to runchiefly into that key in which they had fet out.With regard to the degree of loudnefs to be ufed,the bcft rule for a fpeaker to obferve is, never to uttera greater quantity of voice,than he can afford withoutpain to himfelf, or any extraordinary effort.While he does this, the other organs of fpeech willbe at liberty to difcharge their feveral ofnces witheafe; and he will always have his voice under command.But whenever he tranfgreffcs thefe bounds,he gives up the reins, and has no longer any managementof it. And it will ever be the fafeft waytoo, to keep within his compafs, rather than go atany time to the utmoft extent of it ; which is adangerous experiment, and never juftifiable but uponfome extraordinary emotion. For even in that cafe,the tranfgreiTing of the limits in the leaft, will fcarcebe pardoned : for, as the judicious Shakefpear haswell obfervcd in his inftruiflion to the player. Inthe very torrent, tempej}, and as I may fay whirhvlnd ofyour pajjion, you mujl acquire and beget a temperance thatmay give it fmoothnefs.In order to have a full power and command overthe voice, it is ncceffary that the fpeaker fhoiild underftandthe right management of the breath ; an articleof the utmoft importance to the whole of delivery,and yet which is as little known as any of the reft.The falfe rule, by which people in general are inftrudtedin learning to read, that the breath is neverto be drawn, but when there is a full ftop, or clofeof the fenfe, has made it exceedingly difficult toutter long fentences, efpecially to thofe v/ho arefliort-winded. They are therefore apt to run themfelvesentirely out of breath, and not to ftop till thefailure of that obliges them to it, which is thereforelikely to happen in improper pieces ; or elfe they fubdividethe long fentence, into as many diftincl fentences,as they take times of breathing ; to the utterconfufion of the fenfe.For, as they have been taughtnot to take breath, but when they make a full flop,they habitually ufe the tone of a full i'op, wheneverthey take breath.It is of as much importance to a fpeaker, that hefliould have at all times a fufficient command of breath,as that an organ fhould be fupplied with a properquantity of air. In order to this, he fliould take carealways to get a frefli fupply, before he feels any wantof it ; for while he has fome to fpare, he recruits itwith fuch eafe, that his hearers are not at allfenfibleofhis doing it.

For, by this means, he may alwaysproportion his paufes to the importance of the fenfe ;and not merely to the grammatical ftructure of wordsin fentences, making like paufes to all of like (Iructure,without diftindion. For inftance, if there beany propofition or fentiment which he would enforcemore flrongly than the leH, he may either precede itby a longer paufe than ufual, which will roufe attention,and give it the more weight when it is delivered; or he may make a longer paufe after it is clofed,which will give time to the mind to ruminate upon it,and let it fink deeper into it by refleiflion ; or, accordingto the importance of the point, he may do both.He may go ftill farther, and make a paufe before fomevery emphatical word, where neither the fcnfe, norcommon ufage would admit of any; and this on properoccafions may produce a very powerful cffcch0/ TONES.Thus far I have confidcred the fcveral points, thatare fundamentally and cU'entially neceflary to everypublic fpeaker ; without which, he will be fo far frommaking any imprcflion on his hearers, that he will notbe sble to command their attention,even make himfelf underflood.nor, in many cafes,Yet fo low is the flateof elocution among us, that a man who is mafter evenof thefe rudiments of rhetoric, is comparatively confideredas one of an excellent delivery. This verycircumft.ince, therefore, is a fufficient inducement toapply clofely,at lead to the maftery of thefe points.But to fuch as fliould be dcfirous to extend theirviews fo far as to attain the nobler ends of oratory, Injean a power of commanding the tempers, difpofuionp,and paflions of mankind, there arc other points to beconfidered ; to mafter which will require the clofeftattention, and infinite pains. The firft, and principalof thefe, is the article of tones ; upon the proper ufeand management of which, all that is pleafurable, oraffecling in elocution, chiefly depends.What I have hitherto faid on this fubje£l, refersonly to particular notes of the voice, appertaining toemphafis and flops, in fentences. Here I mean tofpeak of that general intonation,periods, and parts of a difcourfe.which pervades wholeTones may be divided into two kinds; natural andinftituted. The natural, are fuch as belong to thepaflions of man in his animal ftate ; which are implantedin his frame, by the hand of nature;and whichfpontaneoufly break forth, whenever he is under theinfluence of any of thofc paflions.Thefe form a univerfa!language, equally ufed by all the different nationsof the world, and equally underflood and felt byaU. Thus, the tones expreffive of forrow, lameutat'on,mirth, joy, hatred, anger, love, pity, &c. areth-; fame in all countries, and excite emotions in usanalogous to thofe paflions, when accompanying wordswhich we do not underftand.The inflituted tones, are thofe which are fettled bycompaiSl, to mark the different operations, exertions,and emotions of the intelledl and fancy, in producingtheir ideas; and thefe in a great meafure differ, in differentcountries, as the languages do.The former of thefe, it is evident, neither requirefludy nor pains, when we are ourfelves under the influenceof any of thofc paflions, as they are neceflarilyproduced by them: but in attempting to produce them,either in delivering the impaffioned fpeeches of writers ;or in afluming them in our own difcourfes ; we fliallfail of the point, fo far as we fail of feeling, for thetime, the very paflions we would exprefs. We mayindeed mimic the tones of thofe paflions, but the cheatwill be manifcft, and not reach the hearts of thehearers. Si vis me fiere, ddendum ejl primum tibi ipfiyis a well known maxim, and will hold good with regardto allthe other paflions.With refped to the latter, it will require great painsand much obfervation,to become mafter of them.When we confidcr that all thefe tones are to be accompaniedby fuitablc looks and gefluresj not onlyadapKd

Nor is it hardlyever attempted to be put in praftice, except on theilage; where indeed feme degree of it is eflentialiy neceflary.And the extreme dijEculty of arriving at anydegree of perfeftion in it cannot be more clearlyfliewn, than by recollecting how few the inftancesare, of thofe who have fucceedcd even tolerably there,though it be the main object and bufinefs of theirlives. All this is the neceilary confequence of ourhaving devoted our whole time and attention to thecultivation of the written language, and leaving thatof fpeech entirely to chance.When we reflaft, that not only every thing whichis pleafurable, every thing which is forcible and affe6lingin elocution, but alfo the moft material points neceflaryto a full and diftinfl comprehcnfion, even of thefenfe of what is uttered, depend upon the proper ufeof tones, and their accompaniments ; it may wellaftoni{h us to think, that fuch eflential parts of languageftiould in a civilized country, and a country offreedom too, be wholly neglefled. Nay worfe—thatour youth fliould not only be inftruded in the trueufe of thefe, but in the little art that is ufed, theyfliould be early perverted by falfe rules, utterly repugnantto thofe which nature has clearly fointed out tous. And how can it be otherwife, when we havegiven up the vivifying energetic language, ftamped byGod himfelf upon our natures, for that which is theneceflary to examine, in the firft place, wherein thedifference be;ween profe and verfe confills.Poetic numbers are founded upon the fame principleswith thofe of the mufical, and are governed by fimilarlaws. Proportion and order are the fources of thepleafure we receive from both, and the beauty of eachdepends upon a due obfervation of the laws of meafure,and movement. The eflential difference between,them is, that the matter of the one confifts of articulate,of the other, inarticulate founds : but fyllables iathe one correfpond to notes in the other; poetic feet,,to mufical bars ; and verfes, to ftrains : they have alllike properties, and are governed by fimilar laws.The conflltuent parts of verfe are, feet, and paufes jfrom the due dirtribution of which, refult meafure, andmovement. Feet confifl of a certain number of fyllablesunited together, like notes in bars ; and a certainnumber of thofe feet, when completed, according tothe rules of the different fpecies of verfification, formverfes or flrains. They are called feet, becaufe it is bytheir aid that the voice as it were fteps along throughthe verfe, in a meafured pace; and it is thereforeneceflary that the fyllables which mark this regularmovement of the voice, fhould in feme manner bediflinguifhed from the others. This diflimStion wasmade among the ancient Romans, by dividing theirfylhbles into long and fhort, and afcertaining theirquantity, by an exadt proportion in founding them jthe long, being to the fhort, as two to one ; and thelong fyllables, being thus the more important, markedthe movement. In Englifh, fyllables are divided intoaccented and unaccented : and the accented fyllables,cold, lifelefs work of art, and invention of man ;and bartered that, which can penetrate the inmofl fecefiesof the foul, for one which dies in the ear, or fadesupon the fight i"Such is our prefent (tate, and fuch it muft ever continue,till the objeft be changed; tilt the living languagebe reftored to its due rank, and fchools of rhetoriceftablifhed, as in old Greece and Rome, for teachingthe nobleft, moft ufeful, and ornamental art, that everimproved and dignified human nature.0/ the RECITATION of POETIC NUMBERS.In order to know the difTercnt manner to be ufed inihe recitation of verfe, from that of profe, it will bebeing as firongly diflinguifhed from the unaccented,by the peculiar flrefs of the voice upon them, areequally capable of marking the movement, and pointingout the regular paces of the voice, as the longfyllables were, by their quantity, among the Romans.From not having examined the peculiar ";enius ofour tongue, our Profodians have f;'llen into a varietyof errors : fome having adopted the rules of our neighbours,the French ; and others having had recourfe tothofe of the ancients ; though neither of them, inreality, would fquare with our tongue, on account ofan eflential difference between them.

It was to a reader of this fort, that Caefarfaid, '' If you read, you fing ; and if you fmg, you' fing yeiy ill.'To avoid thefe feveral faults, the bulk of readersliave chofen what they think a fafer courfe, which is,that of running the lines one into another, without theleaft paufe, where they find none in the fenfe; in thefame manner as they would do in fentenccs of profe,voice, but fufpending it in the fame individual notethat would be ufed, were it to be connected inftantlywith the following word. This ftop is what I havebefore defcribed under the name of the paufe of fufpenfion;which, though eflentially necefiary to the juftrecitation of verfe, has never once been thouaht of;nor is the management of it to be acquired but bygreat attention and praftice, according to the methodbefore propofed. By the ufe of this paufe, the melodyof verfe may at all times be preferved without interferingwith the fenfe. For the paufe itfelf, perfectlymarks the bounds of the metre; and being made onlyby a fufpenfion, not change of note in the voice, theconcatenation of the meaning is as- diftinflly perceivedby every auditor, as if the words had been utteredin the clofeft connedion.Nor is this the only advantage gained to numbers,by this ftop of fufpenfion ; it alfo prevents that monotoneat the end of lines, before defcribed, which,however plcafing to a rude, is difgufting to a delicateear. For, as this ftop of fufpenfion has no peculiarnote of its own, but always takes that which belongsto the preceding word, it changes continually V7ith-thematter, and is as various as the fenfe.were they to find the fame words there fo difpofed ;by which means they reduce verfe to a hobbling kindof metre, neither verfe nor profe. In vain, to fuchreaders, has Milton laboured the bed proportionednumbers in blank verfe ; his order is turned intoconfunon j his melody, into difcord. In vain havePrior and Dryden, in the coupler, fought out the richeftj-hime; the laft word, hurried precipitately from itspoft, into the next line, leaves no impreffion on theear ; and loft in' a clufter of words, marks not therelation between it and its correlative, which, theirdiftinguifhed fimilar pofls in the two verfes had giventhem ; by which means the whole effect of the riiime,as well as the metre, is loft. We need not wonder,hinvever, that the majority of readers {hould readilyfall into this laft method, becaufe they have all learnedto read profe, and it cofts them no trouble to readvtT^e.like profe.But it will be aflced, if this final paufe is neithermarked by an elevation, or depreflion of the voice,how is it poffible to mark it at all? To this the anfweris obvious ; by making no change at all in theHaving faid all that is necefiary of the final, I fhallnow examine the cefural paufe.The cefural paufe is that which divides the verfeinto equal or unequal portions ; upon the right managementof which, the melody and harmony of verfificationin a great meafure depend. The feats of thecefura moft pleafing to the ear, are either at the endof the fecond foot, in the middle of the third, or at theend of the third foot ; but it may occafionally takeplace in all p^rts of the line. The cefura is by nomeans efiential to verfe, as the fhorter kinds of meafureare without it ; and many heroic lines, in which it isnot to be found, are ftill good verfes. It is true itimproves, and diverfifies the melody, by a judiciousmanagement in varying its fituation, and fo beconies agreat ornament to verfe ; but ftill this is not the moftimportant office which it difcharges ; for hefide improvingthe melody of fingle lines, there is a nt:wfource of delight, opened by it rn poetic numbers,correfpondent, in fome fort, to harmony in raufic ;that takes its rife from that act of the mind, whichcompares the relative proportions, that the membersgof

IAPROSODIAof each verfebear toesch other, as well as to thofe inthe adjoining lines. The cefural, like the final paufe,fomctimcs coincides with the fententia!, fometimeshas an independent ftate ; that is, exii^s where thereis no flop in the fenfe. In that cafe, it is exaaiy ofthe fame nature with the final paufe of fufpenfionbefore defcribcd, and is governed by the famelaws.The feat of the final paufe points itfelf out ;butwith regard to the cefural, whofe feat is variable, andmay be in all the different parts of the verfe, confequentlynot fo eafily to be found, there requires moreto be faid.In order to find out the feat of thecefura,we are to reflect, that there are fome parts of fpeechfo neceflarily connccled in fentences, that they willnot admit of any disjundion, by the fmalleft paufe ofthe voice. Between fuch, therefore, the cefura cannever fall. Its ufual feat is, in that place of the line,where the voice can firft reft, after a word, not foneceflarily connefted with the following one. I fiiy,not fo neceflarily, becaufe the cefura may find place,where there would be no fentential flop, after a wordwhich leaves any idea for the mind to reft, though itmay have a clofe connection with what follows. ForinllanceLGRAMMAR.is no verfe, but hobbling profe. But let the cefura beplaced after the wordyfr/?, as thus —Ambition firft " fprung from your blcft abodes—and the metre is reftored.Of the fame kind, are two lines of Waller's, whichIhave leen flopped in the following mannerWe've loft in him arts, that not yet are found,The Mufes ftill love, their own native place.By which pointing, the metre is deftroyed. Theyfliould be thus divided :We've loft in him "arts that not yet are found.The Mufes ftill "love their own native place.Unlefs a reader be much upon his guard, he will beapt to paufe, however improperly, at thofe feats ofthe cefura, which have been fet down as producingthe fineft melody. There would be great temptation,on that account, in the following lines, and allof fimilar ftru'Rure, to place the cefura wrong; asthus —The fprites of fiery "termagants inflame —Back to my native" moderation Aide—And place on good " fecurity his goldYour own refiftlefs "eloquence employ—Or crofs to plunder "provinces the main—Of Eve, whofe eye " darted contagious fire.Now in profe, there could not properly be a commaafter the word eye, from its clofe connection with thefollowing verb ; but in verfe, remove the cefuralpaufe, and the metre is utterly deftroyed.

The paufes relative to the fenfe only, which Icall fentential, are to be obferved in the fame manneras in profe; but particular attention mud be givento thofe two peculiar to verfe, the cefural and final,as before defcribed, which I call mufical paufes.The ufual fault of introducing fing-fong notes, ora fpecies of chanting into poetical numbers, is difagreeableto every ear, but that of tlie chanter himfelf.Such readers, indeed, feem generally in high rapturesin its room. The tune of the poet can then only beheard, when his verfes are recited with fuch notes ofthe voice as refult from the fentiments j and a due proportionof time obferved, in the feet and paufes, theconflituent parts of verfe.Thus far I have laid open all that is nccelTary,to prevent the reader's falling into the ufual errorscommitted in reciting verfe, and to point out themeans of attaining a juft and proper manner. Butwith regard to the grace and elegance of delivery,confifting in the nicer proportions both of time andtone in the feveral feet and paufes, and the exaifl generalintonation of the voice fuited to the fentimentsand paflions, it is obvious that little can bedone, by precept alone. Nor can we ever expecVto have this part brought to perfection, till rhetoricalwith their own mufic, for, according to the old obfervation,hand cuiquam injucunda quis cantat ipfe' No man's tune is unpleafing to himfelf.'

CJiiJE N D I X.INthe preceding Grammar, the true principleupon which the pronunciation of polyfylhibles isfounded, is for the firll time laid open; and willfrive to folvc all difficulties in dubious cafe?, andput an end to numberlefs difputes daily held uponthat fubjed,by the different partifans of the differentmodes of founding words. Some have recourfe tdauthority ; but at prefent, for reafons mentioned inthe Preface, that neither is, nor ought to be of anyforce ; and when, as it often happens, one authority.isbalanced againft another, who fliall determinewhich (hall preponderate ? Some have recourfe toderivation ; but not knov/ing on what occafions thatoperates, and when it has no influence, they fall intocontinual errors; and others refer to analogy, which,without being well acquainted with its laws, andthe many deviations from them, is but a very uncertaindirector.The only fure guide on this occafion is the terminatingfyllable, which governs all others in theword, as the rudder does the fhip.To explain this by examples-It has been much difputed, whether the wordihould be pronounced con'cordance, or concor dance.The advocates for the former pronunciation proceediipon a latent principle of analogy, which generallyoperates in words of that termin.ition, ac may befecn by having recourfe to the Grammar, p. xxx.where examining the termination in atice, you willfir.d it faid— Polyfyilables in tince in general havethe accent on the antepenult, or laft fyllable but two.Examp.

And yet, ignorantas they might be of any rule, one \5i(ou]d imagine tha,tanalogy itfelf might have fet them right in this cafe,as upon the fame ground they might pronourfce theword dis cordance, with the accent on the firfl: fyllable,as well as con cordance, which no one everattempted.The fame obfervation will hold good with regardto the word ref raclory, or refrac'tory.Ac'ademy, or acad'emy, is another word whicli liasoccafioned much difpute; you will find it adjufted bylooking for the termination my, p. xxxiv.In all difputable cafes, preference has been givento that pronunciation which is mofl conformable torule ; as certainly the lefl'ening as much as poffiblethe anomalies of any language will be a great advantageto it, as it will render the attainment of itmore eafy. Thus in the difpute about the pronunciationof the word wind, whether it fhould be wi'ndor wijid , the former has been adopted, upon thisprinciple, that there is no monofyllable in the Engliflilanguage terminating in hid in which the vowel;' is not pronounced long ; as blind, rind, kind, &c.I have often heard Dr. Swift fay to thofe who pronouncedit fhort, in a jeering tone, ' I have a greatmfnd to ftnd why you call it wfnd.'Obfervations of this kind might be extended to aconfiderable length ; but it would be an unneceffarytrouble, as the Reader will find every tiling relativeto that matter aJjuftcd in the Grammar.Rules

Thus the Irifli fay, patron,matron, the vowel a, having the fame found as inthe word father; while the Englifli pronounce themas if written, paytron, maytron.

To this rule there are but threeexceptions in the whole language, to be found in thewords father, papa, mamd. The Irifli may thinkalfo the word rather an exception, as well as father;and fo it would appear to be in their manner of pronouncingit, ra-ther, laying the accent on the vowel(I ;but in the Englifli pronunciation, the confonantth is taken into the firft fyliable ; as thus, rath -er,which makes the difference.Whenever a confonant follows the vowel a in thefame fyliable, and the accent is on the confonant, thevowel a has always its firft found, as hat , man ; asalfo the fame found lengthened when it precedes theletter ;-, as fa'r, ba'r, though the accent be on the vowelas likewife when it precedes ///;, as ba Im, pfa Im.

If the fame ardour continues for obtaininga juft and polifhed delivery, which I found prevailamong the young gentlemen of Scotland, when I deliveredmy Courfe of Leflures at Edinburgh, they willnow have it in their power to compafs the point uponcertain grounds, chiefly by their own labour, and application.Nor will they long be without due afliftance,where that is requifite, upon proper encouragement;for as there could be no hopes of having fkilfulmafters to teach this art, without firft having a propermethod of inftruflion ; fo that method being nowlaid open, will no doubt induce numbers to applythemfehes to the mafl:ery of it, in order to becomepreceptors in that moft ufeful and ornamental of all arts.Nor are there wanting examples to ftimulate thofewho are in purfuit of this objeiSl-, and to enfure fuccefsto their endeavours. There is at this day a gentlemanof that country, now in London, in a high office ofthe law, who did not leave Scotland till after he hadwho, though he had never * «en out of Scotland, yetmerely by bis own pains, without rule or method, onlyconverfmg much with fuch Englifnmen as happened tobe there, and reading regularly with fome of the principaladors, arrived even at an accuracy of pronunciation,and had not the leaft tinflure of the Scottifliintonation.I fhall now fay a few words to the uihabitants ofWales; inorder to fhew how eafily they might getrid of their provincial dialecV.The peculiarity of the Weldi pronunciationIvarifeschiefly from their conftantly fubftituting the three puremutes, in the room of the three impure ; and the threeafpirated femivowels, in the place of the three vocal.Thus inftead of b, they ufe p ; for g, they ufe k, orhard c ; and for d, they employ t. For blood, theyfay, plut ; for God, Cot ; and for dear, tear. In likemanner, in the ufe of the femivowels, they fubftitutefin the place oi v ; s in the place of z ; eth in theroom of eth ; and ejh in that of ezh. Thus inftead ofvirtue and vice, they fay, firtue and fice ; inftead ofzeal and praife, they fay, feal and praiffe ; inftead ofthefe and thofe, tlTcffe and tiToffe ; inftead of azure,ofier, they fay, afliur, oftier. Thus there are no lefsthan feven of our confonants which the Welfli neverpronounce at all. Now if the difference in the mannerof formation between thefe feven confonants andtheir feven correfpondent ones, were pointed out tothem, in the way defcribed in the Grammar, theymight in a fliort time be taught the perfeft ufe of them.been fome years advanced in manhood ; and yet, afterhaving received inftruflion for a few months only,according to the method laid down in this work, hisfpeech was not to be diftinguifhcd from that of the moftpolifhed natives of England, both in point of pronunciationand intonation ; and he is perhsps at thisday the beft pattern to be followed with regard to both,whether in the Houfe of Commons, or at the bar.And yet there was ftill a more extraordinary inftanceThe people of Somerfetfliire pronounce the femivowelsin a way directly oppofite to that of the Welfti.For whereas the Welfli change the vocal into the afpirate,they of Somerfetfhire change the afpirate into thevocal.

If we attend to the procefsin forming this, found, we fhall find that the mouthis firfl opened to the fame degree of aperture, and isin the fame pofition as if it were going to pronouncea, but before the voice can get a pafl'age through thelips, the under jaw is drawn near to the upper, inthe fame pofition as when the vowel i is formed ; andthus the full found, checked by the flender one, andcoalefcing with it, produces a third found differentfrom both, which is the diphthong i. There is afound in the French fomewhat rcfembling our f, tobe found in fuch words as vin, fin^ but tliat there is adifference between then), will be immediately perceptibleby founding after them our words wne, fine ;andthe difference confifls in this, that their diphthong isformed of the fecond found of a, a and i, and ours ofthe third, a i : fo that in order to produce that found,you are to defire a foreigner to open his mouth aswide as if he were going to pronounce a, and meantto found that vowel ; but on the firft effort of thevoice for that purpofe, to check its progrefs by afudden motion of the under jaw towards the uppertill the two founds coalefce, and then inflantly toflop all farther effufion of voice. Thus as the foundof a is not completed, nor the found of i continued,there refults from the union of the two a third foundor diphthong, which has no rcfcmblancc to either,and yet is a compound of both.The diphthong u is compounded of the found iand o ; the former fo rapidly uttered and falling foquickly into the found o, that its own power is notperceived, while that of o, being a little dwelt upon,is diflindlly heard. There is a found in the Frenchthat fomewhat refembles this, to be found in thewords dim, niieux, but the difference will be immediatelyperceived by founding after them our words{iew, mew, and it confills i.i this, that their dijihtlioiigterminates in the French vowel ttc, a foundvvhith we have not in our tongue, and is foundtherefore very hard to be formed by Englifh organs;and ours terminates in o, the fame as the French cu.To form it properly therefore, a foreigner is to betold thai it is compoftd of the founds \ u, the firft not5completed, but rapidly running into the laft, whichhe is to confider as the fame found with the Frenchon; our pronoun you is an exadt reprefentation to aFrench eye of our diphthong u.Of the Diphthong oi or oy.This diphthong, which is fometimes fpelt with an/ and fometimes with a y, is formed by a union ofthe fame vowels as that off, that is a i ; with thisdifference, that the firft vowel a being dwelt upon, isdiftinclly heard before its found is changed by itsjuniSion with the latter vowel i, as in the words3 1' J I !noife (raise) isjj (baise).To form this diphthong, it is ncceflary to pronouncethe full found of a, dwelling a little upon itbefore the fuund is intercepted by the motion of theunder jaw, to the pofition of forming the flenderfound I, and then the voice is inftantly to ceafc.This diphthong differs from that of i only in this,that the firft vowel a is diftiniSlly heard before itunites with the latter vov/e] i.Of the Diphthong cu,or oiv.This diphthong, though differently marked, likethe foregoing one, fometimes by ««, and fometimesby cui, has always the fame found, and is compofedof the vov^-.-ls a and o; the organs being at firftin the pofition of foimding a, but before that foundis perfected, by a motion of the under jaw and lipsto the pofition of fou;.Jing o, the firft found 'a ischecked and blended with the latter o, from whichrefults the diphthong cu or oiu, as in thou, mx-y(thaou naow).All the-other diphthongs of our tongue are formedby the fhort founds of 6 and i, marked by the charaiSersw.- and y, preceding other vowels, and combiningwith them in the fame fyllab'c ;as thus :w or fliort o. y or fhort i.waft wage w.ill yard yare yawlwed weed yet yea yewit wife wield yon yoke youthwot v.'oe woo young.wordwoiild.To
