ich_ the Noetians were so called."--_R. Adam cor._ "This is one reason _why_ we pass over such smooth language without suspecting that it contains little or no meaning."--_L. Murray cor._ "The first place _at which the two_ armies came _within_ sight of each other, was on the opposite banks of the river Apsus."--_Goldsmith cor._ "At the very time _at which_ the author gave him the first book for his perusal."--_Campbell cor._ "Peter will sup at the time _at which_ Paul will dine."--_Fosdick cor._ "Peter will be supping _when_ Paul will enter."--_Id._ "These, _while_ they may serve as models to those who may wish to imitate them, will give me an opportunity to cast more light upon the principles of this book."--_Id._ "Time was, like thee, they life _possess'd_, And time shall be, _when_ thou shalt rest."--_Parnell cor._ UNDER NOTE VII.--OF THE CORRESPONDENTS. "Our manners should be _neither_ gross nor excessively refined."--_Murray's Key_, ii, 165. "A neuter verb expresses neither action _nor_ passion, but being, or a state of being."--_O. B. Peirce cor._ "The old books are neither English grammars, _nor in any sense_ grammars of the English language."--_Id._ "The author is apprehensive that his work is not yet _so_ accurate and _so_ much simplified as it may be."--_Kirkham cor._ "The writer could not treat some _topics so_ extensively as [it] was desirable [to treat them]."--_Id._ "Which would be a matter of such nicety, _that_ no degree of human wisdom could regulate _it_."--_L. Murray cor._ "No undertaking is so great or difficult, _that_ he cannot direct _it_."--_Duncan cor._ "It is a good which depends _neither_ on the will of others, nor on the affluence of external fortune."--_Harris cor._ "Not only his estate, _but_ his reputation too, has suffered by his misconduct."--_Murray and Ingersoll cor._ "Neither do they extend _so_ far as might be imagined at first view."--_Dr. Blair cor._ "There is no language so poor, but _that_ it _has_ (or, _as not to have_) two or three past tenses."--_Id. "So_ far as this system is founded in truth, language appears to be not altogether arbitrary in its origin."--_Id._ "I have not _such_ command of these convulsions as is necessary." Or: "I have not _that_ command of these convulsions _which_ is necessary."--_Spect. cor._ "Conversation with such _as_ (or, _those who_) know no arts _that_ polish life."--_Id._ "And which cannot be _either_ very lively or very forcible."
