To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The predicate may consist of a verb only, or it may include also an object or complement. The position of the accent will vary according to the sense, but the principle of concluding inflexion is the same whether the predicate be simple or compound. 67. An assertive sentence may contain, besides the subject and predicate, a third part — the circumstance ; which may be either of the adjective class, as qualifying the subject, or of the adverbial class, as qualifying the predicate. 68. The circum...stance may consist of a single word, of a cla.usu\a.r group of words, or of a subordinate sen- tence, adverbial, relative, conditional, or participial. 69. The subordinate clause or sentence may be com- SENTENTIAL INTONATION, 9/ flemental of the subject or predicate, — when its accen- tuation and inflexion must show it to be a fart of the principal member ; — ^or it may be merely explanatory — when it must be pronounced with independent tones and accents. Thus in the following lines : " Behold the emblem of thy state In flowers, which bloom and die.'' The principal sentence here terminates with the comple- mentary clause " in flowers ;" " Behold the emblem of thy state in flowers !" and the succeeding relative sentence is an independent explanatory addition.
