Excerpt from The Principles of English Grammar: Comprising the Substance of the Most Approved English Grammars Extant, With Copious Exercises in Parsing and Syntax; And an Appendix of Various and Useful Matter A knowledge Of English Grammar is very properly considered an indispensable part of an' English education; and is now taught as such, in all our Academies and Common Schools. The great number Of elementary works which have recently appeared on this subject, is a pleasing evidence of the attention which has been bestowed upon it. Among these, none has enjoyed greater favor than the Grammar of lindley murray; and the high rank which it still holds among the numerous works which have appeared since its publication, is a decided testimony to the soundness of its principles and the excellence of the system. With all its ex cellence, however, it is far from being incapable Of improvement; and the attempt to add to its value as a manual for schools, by correcting what is erroneous, retrenching what is super uous or ummportant, compressing what is prolix, elucidating what is Ob scure, determining what was left doubtful, supplying what is de fective, and bringing up the whole to that state of improvement to which the labours of eminent scientific and practical writers of the present day have so greatly contributed, can hardly fail, if well executed, to prove acceptable to the public. Such was my design; and though there may be reason to regret that it has not been undertaken by some one more capable of doing justice to the subject, still it is hoped that the labor bestowed, in order to carry it into effect, will not be altogether in vain.
