Synopsis
Excerpt from Chapters on the Science of Language
My object, in composing the present work, has been to condense into a small compass the results of former discussions on several interesting philological problems, chiefly for the benefit of those who have not had, either the leisure or opportunity of devoting their time to philology, and also with a View to induce some, who may never have read anything on the subject - either because they think it dry, or because they know not what mysteries the science of language will unfold - to begin a study which promises so rich a harvest.
