TO THE READER.

THE utility of Analysis of Sentences, Paraphrasing, and Parsing is now so generally admitted, that exercises on these subjects form a very important part of every examination for Government certificates, Queen scholarships, and of the yearly examinations of pupil-teachers. See selections from examination papers at the end.

The present treatise may be considered a 'Companion to English Grammar' generally; but more especially to an 'Advanced Manual of English Grammar, Language, and Literature,' entitled the 'Grammar of English Grammars,' which will shortly appear, in the preparation of which the author has spent several years. The two parts were originally intended to form one volume, but to prevent too great an increase in size, the entire work will appear in two parts, each complete in itself, and of a convenient size for general use.

The references made in this part relate to the other volume of the course, except where it is otherwise expressed.
