Excerpt from A New Grammar of the English Language: Familiarly Explained, and Adapted to the Use of Schools and Private Students

For imposing this volume upon the public, I have but one apology to offer, and that is this - that in the prevailing sys tems, the science of, Grammar is neither so conveniently arranged nor so aptly illustrated as it should be. Notwithstanding the great multiplicity of new systems, we seldom find a teacher well pleased with his (grammar, or a pupil much interested in the study. The evils complained of, I have endeavored to\ remedy and whether I have been able to gratify others or not, I have at'least succeeded in pleasing myself.

But he Who blends instruction With delight, Wins every reader, nor, in vain shall write.
