Webster cor._ "That these verbs associate with _other_ verbs in all the tenses, is no proof _that they have_ no particular time of their own."--_L. Murray cor._ "To justify _myself in_ not following the _track_ of the ancient rhetoricians."--_Dr. H. Blair cor._ "The _putting-together of_ letters, so as to make words, is called Spelling."--_Inf. S. Gram. cor._ "What is the _putting-together of_ vowels and consonants called?"--_Id._ "Nobody knows of their _charitableness_, but themselves."
