Synopsis
Excerpt from Lessons in Elocution, or a Selection of Pieces in Prose and Verse, for the Improvement of Youth in Reading and Speaking
The dificulty of describing action by Words, will be allowed by every one; and if we were never to give any instructions, but such as should completely answer our wishes, this difficulty would be a good reason for not at tempting to give any description of it. But there are many degrees between conveying a precise idea of a thing and no idea at all. Besides, in this part of deliv ery, instruction may be conveyed by the eye and this organ is a much more rapid vehicle of knowledge than the ear. This vehicle is addressed on the present occasion and plates, representing the attitudes which are described are annexed to the several descriptions, which it is not doubted, will greatly facilitate the reader's conception.
