RULE XVII.

When a relative pronoun is of the interrogative kind, it refers to the
word or phrase containing the answer to the question for its
_subsequent_, which subsequent must agree in _case_ with the
interrogative; as, "_Whose_ book is that? _Joseph's;" "Who_ gave you
this? _John_."

NOTE. Whether the interrogative _really refers_ to a subsequent or
not, is doubtful; but it is certain that the subsequent should agree
in case with the interrogative.

RULE XVIII.

Adjectives belong to, and qualify nouns, expressed or understood; as,
"He is a _good_, as well as a _wise_ man."

NOTE 1. Adjectives frequently belong to pronouns; as, "I am
_miserable; He_ is _industrious_."

2. Numeral adjectives belong to nouns, which nouns must agree in
number with their adjectives, when of the _cardinal_ kind; as, "Ten
_feet_; Eighty _fathoms_." But some anomalous and figurative
expressions form an exception to this rule; as, "A fleet of _forty
sail;" "Two hundred head of cattle_."

3. Adjectives sometimes belong to verbs in the infinitive mood, or
to a part of a sentence; as, "_To see_ is _pleasant_; To be blind is
_unfortunate_; To die for our country is _glorious_."

4. Adjectives are often used to modify the sense of other
adjectives, or the action of verbs, and to express the quality of
things in connexion with the action by which that quality is
produced; as, "_Red hot_ iron; _Pale blue_ lining; _Deep sea-green_
sash; The apples boil _soft_; Open your hand _wide_; The clay burns
_white_; The fire burns _blue_; The eggs boil _hard_."

5. When an adjective is preceded by a preposition, and the noun is
understood, the two words may be considered an adverbial phrase; as,
"In general, in particular;" that is, generally,
