t form the preterit_ and _the_ perfect participle _by assuming d or ed_."--_Brown's Inst._, p. 75. "But, when the antecedent is used in a _restricted_ sense, a comma is _sometimes_ inserted before the relative; as, 'There is no _charm_ in the female sex, _which_ can supply the place of virtue.'"--_L. Murray's Gram._, p. 273. Or: "But, when the antecedent is used in a _restricted_ sense, no comma is _usually_ inserted before the relative; as, 'There is in the female sex no _charm which_ can supply the place of virtue.'"--_Kirkham cor._ "Two capitals _used_ in this way, denote _different words_; but _one repeated, marks_ the plural number: as, L. D. _Legis Doctor_; LL. D. _Legum Doctor_."--_Gould cor._ "Was any person _present besides_ the mercer? Yes; his clerk."--_L. Murray cor._ "The word _adjective_ comes from the Latin _adjectivum_; and this, from _ad_, to, and _jacio_, I cast."--_Kirkham cor._ "Vision, or _Imagery_, is a figure _by which the speaker represents the objects of his imagination_, as actually before _his_ eyes, and _present to his senses_. Thus Cicero, in his fourth oration against Cataline: 'I seem to myself to behold this city, the ornament of the earth, and the capital of all nations, suddenly involved in one conflagration. I see before me the slaughtered heaps of citizens lying unburied in the midst of their ruined country. The furious countenance of Ceth[=e]'gus rises to my view, while with savage joy he is triumphing in your miseries.'"--_Dr. Blair cor._; also _L. Murray_. "When _two or more_ verbs follow the same nominative, _an_ auxiliary _that is common to them both or all_, is _usually expressed to_ the first, and understood to the rest: as, 'He _has gone_ and _left_ me;' that is, 'He _has gone_ and _has left_ me.'"--_Comly cor._ "When I use the word _pillar to denote a column that supports_ an edifice, I employ it literally."--_Hiley cor._ "_In poetry_, the conjunction _nor_ is often used for _neither_; as 'A stately superstructure, that _nor_ wind, Nor wave, nor shock of falling years, could move.'--POLLOK."--_Id._ UNDER CRITICAL NOTE XII--OF PERVERSIONS. "In the beginning God created the _heaven_ and the earth."--_Genesis_, i, 1. "Canst thou by searching find out _God_?"--_Job_, xi, 7. "Great _and marvellous are thy works_, Lord _God Almighty_; just and true are thy ways, thou King of saints."--_Rev._, xv. 3. "_Not_ every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the
