Synopsis

Excerpt from An English Grammar: Conformed to Present Usage; With an Objective Method of Teaching the Elements of the English Language

These written parsing exercises are found to be the most in fallible means of exciting a controlling interest in principles and forms of our language. They are immeasurably more effective than any of the long, tedious, almost senseless processes dubbed language lessons. But language lessons must have their day, with object lessons, with free-hand drawing, with natural order and with various other waves of spasmodic efforts ac cepted by leading educators, all of which have been or will be consigned to oblivion, with the scholastics of the Dark Ages.
