Excerpt from Exercises on Words: Designed as a Course of Practice on the Rudiments of Grammar and Rhetoric
The analytic method of presenting the subject of grammar, originally introduced in the schools of Germany, subsequently in those of England, and, more recently, by Professors Alpheus Crosby and S. S. Greene, in those of our own country, is doing much to revolutionise our modes of teaching, in this department, and to diffuse more philosophic and rational views on the whole subject of grammatical instruction. To the benefits, however, arising from the use of any text-book, an extensive course of practical grammar, requiring the actual study and use of language, in daily exercises, is an important addition, without which, little progress can be made towards the acknowledged end of grammar.
