An inl’ipid flatnefs and languor is almoli the uni verfal fault in reading often uttering their words To faint and feeble, that they. Appear neither to feel nor underf’tand what they read, nor have any delire Lt {hould be felt or underflood by others. In order to acquire a forcible manner of pronouncing words, let the pupils mure themfelves while reading, to draw iii as much air as their lungs can contain with eafe, and to expel it with vehemence in uttering t’hofe ‘founds which require an emphatical pronunciation, and to read aloud with the exertion they can command let all the’confonant founds be expreffed with a fullim pulfe of the breath, and a forcible action of them gans employed in forming them; and all the vowel founds have a full and bold utterance.
