3. /Reflexive pronouns\, used in the predicate to refer back to the
subject; as, _he saw himself_. (Cf. Sec. 281.)
4. /Intensive pronouns\, used to emphasize a noun or pronoun; as, _I
myself saw it_. (Cf. Sec. 285.)

_279._ The demonstrative pronoun /is\, /ea\, /id\, as we learned in
Sec. 115, is regularly used as the personal pronoun of the third person
(_he_, _she_, _it_, _they_, etc.).

_we_; of the second person, /tu:\, _thou_ or _you_; /vo:s\, _ye_ or
_you_. They are declined as follows:
