Of a_ PARTICIPLE. A Participle is a _Part of Speech_, which partaketh of a _Verb_ and a _Noun_. When it has a Relation to Time it may be considered as a _Verb_; but when it is joined to a _Substantive_ or admits of _Comparison_, it may be considered as an _Adjective_. When the _termination_ of the _Participle Passive_ is not formed by adding the Syllable _ed_ to the _first Person_ of the _Indicative Mood Present Tense Singular_; or when the _Termination_ of the _Participle Passive_ differs from the _Termination of the Preter Tenses_, the _Verb_ becomes _irregular_; but in all other Respects is conjugated as the regular Verb; as I abide, thou abidest, &c. _Pres.

Affirmation; as _yes_, _indeed_, _certainly_. Negation; as _no_, _never_, _not at all_. Comparison; as _more_, _less_, _likewise_.
