The English Language: Its Grammar, History & Literature, With Chapters on Composition, Versification, Paraphrasing, & Punctuation.

A nother convenience that will be found by both teacher and pupil in this form of rules will be that they can be compared with the rules of, or general statements about, a foreign language such asL atin, French, orG erman. It is earnestly hoped that the slight sketches of the History of our Language and of our Literature may not only enable the young student to pass his examinations with success, but may induce him to study the original works for himself. It is also intended that the book shall be useful to Acting Teachers who are preparing for their Certificate Examination. The sixty pages of exercises and recent examination papers will be found useful by pupil-teachers, King sS cholarship students, candidates for theL ondon Matriculation Examination, and teachers preparing for their Certificate Examination. The Index will be found useful in preparing the parts of each subject, as all the separate paragraphs about the same subject will be found there grouped together. I beg to thank very warmly those ableT eachers who have been kind enough to give me hints and suggestions towards the improvement of this book; and I am also glad to note here the fact that Modern Teaching is every day tending more and more towards clearness and simplicity.
