This book is intended for students in the second year of the high school. It is not a full treatise on composition, nora complete rhetoric. It includes as many and as much of the principles of these two subjects as a second-year student may reasonably be expected to master. There is therefore no attempt to spread these few pages over the whole field of English writing: attention is rather directed to a few questions, treated fundamentally and thoroughly. In composition the paragraph is regarded as the unit, and made the basis of study. I ts history and theory, parts and structure, laws and development, are successively presented. Principles are first stated, explained, and illustrated; the student is then required by analytical and constructive exercises to show his knowledge of the subject discussed. The subjectmatter is therefore considered from three view-points :the theory; the principle applied by others; the principles applied by the student himself. For the convenience of those who may use this work, the full texts of the First Bunker Hill Oration Vision of Sir Launfalf A nzient Mariner and Cotters Saturday Night are printed in the appendix.
