as, herself, himself, &c. The compounds thus formed are called reciprocal pronouns.”—­_ Id._ “One cannot but think, that our author would have done better, had he begun the first of these three sentences, with saying, ’It is novelty, that bestows charms on a monster.’”—­Dr. Blair cor. “The idea which they present to us, of nature resembling art, of art considered as an original, and nature as a copy, seems not very distinct, or well conceived, nor indeed very material to our author’s purpose.”—­Id. “This faulty construction of the sentence, evidently arose from haste and carelessness.”—­Id. “Adverbs serve to modify terms of action or quality, or to denote time, place, order, degree, or some other circumstance which we have occasion to specify.”—­Id. “We may naturally expect, that the more any nation is improved by science, and the more perfect its language becomes, the more will that language abound with connective particles.”—­Id. “Mr. Greenleaf’s book is far better adapted to the capacity of learners, than any other that has yet appeared, on the subject.”—­Feltus and Onderdonk’s false praise Englished.  “Punctuation is the art of marking, in writing or in print, the several pauses, or rests, which separate sentences, or the parts of sentences; so as to denote their proper quantity or proportion, as it is exhibited in a just and accurate delivery.”—­Lowth cor. “A compound sentence must generally be resolved into simple ones, and these be separated by the comma.”  Or better:  “A compound sentence is generally divided, by the comma, into its simple members.”—­Greenleaf and Fisk cor. “Simple sentences should in general be separated from one an other by the comma, unless a greater point is required; as, ’Youth is passing away, age is approaching, and death is near.’”—­S.  R. Hall cor. “V has always one uniform sound, which is that of f flattened, as in thieve from thief:  thus v bears to f the same relation that b does to p, d to t, hard g to k, or z to s.”—­L.  Murray and Fisk cor.; also Walker; also Greenleaf.  “The author is explaining the difference between sense and imagination, as powers of the human mind.”—­L.  Murray cor. Or, if this was the critic’s meaning:  “The author is endeavouring to explain a very abstract point, the distinction between the powers of sense and those of imagination, as two different faculties of the human mind.”—­_ Id._; also Dr. Blair cor. “HE—­(from the Anglo-Saxon HE—­) is a personal pronoun, of the third person, singular number, masculine gender, and nominative case.  Decline HE.”—­Fowler cor.
