CONCLUSION. HOPE the judicious reader will think the labour I have bestowed in collecting and altering, where proper, the foregoing LESSONS, not wholly loft. Though a greater number of paffages might have been put together, (which likewise must have enhanced the bulk and price of the book) I hope it will be owned, that this collection affords fuch a competent variety, that whoever can exprefs, or deliver, properly, all the matter contained in thefe LESSONS, need be at no great lofs in fpeaking any kind of matter, that can come in his way. There are in the LESSONS feveral humours, or paffions, for expreffing which there are no directions nominally given in the ESSAY: but in the ESSAY there are directions for expreffing the principal humours, or paffions, which commonly occur, and the others are generally referable to them. For example, there is not in the ESSAY such an article as HypoCRISY, which occurs in the LESSONS, page 200: but there is AFFECTATION of piety, in the ESSAY, page 22, which is the fame thing under a different name, and fo of others, which every reader's understanding will enable him to trace out, with the help of the INDEX. Masters of places of education, and private tutors, may eafily enlarge the practice of their pupils, on the plan here given, to what extent they pleafe; this part of education being, like all others, endless. The youth may be directed to tranflate from the ancients, especially the orators, and then, the mafter correcting their tranflations, and marking the emphatical words with lines under them, and the various humours, or paffions, on the margin, they may be inftructed to commit the fubftance of them to memory, fo as to be able, without having too often recourfe to their papers, to speak them with eafe and gracefulness, and with propriety as to tone of voice, looks, and gefture.
