Dialogues are carried on, objedions an- fwcrcd, comparifons made, without notice in the difcourfe j and through frequent change of perfons, tenfes, and numbers, We are left to guefs, who are the perfons fpoken of, which gave no difficulty to them^ whofe living language it was. The prophetick ftyle, is of all other, the iiioft copious, this way. It fcems to be, a fort of language, by itfelf It tics itfelf, to iio order nor method, but pafles from one fubjed, to another infenfibly, and fuddenly I...'cfumes it again, and often fallies out, to the main thing, that was intended in his thoughts. The prophets ufed to AB part, of what they were to forctel. Thofe adi- ens, fupplying the place of words, and be- ing not exprefs'd, in the writing, a fort of chafm, is fometimestobe difcerned in themj as, at other times, different difcourfes, or Addreflcs, diftinguiihable in the fpeaking, by proper figns and motions, feem now to be conneded, though they have no relati- on to each other.
