pressing the prepositions and terminations by the alphabetical characters than by this mode; they may be performed with the greatest ease and dispatch; and that without burthening the memory with a multiplicity of common alphabeti cal letters, and of arbitrary and symbolical characters so predominant in most of former systems. There are many advantages arising from this simple method of expressing prepositions and terminations; but the utility of these lessons being too obvious to need any further illustration, I shall conclude my observations hereon by reminding the learner, that if he would take advantage of the wide field of practice, which this system is capable of, he will find it necessary to make himself acquainted with the lessons and rules in their progressive order; and notwithstanding it may occasion some trouble to commit them to memory, the learner may rest assured that these difficulties are richly worth encountering for their advantage to the facility of writing, will abundantly add to the pleasure, and compensate for that trouble which a little practice will soon over come. |
