p/ei ( the ^£fhe and the Paphe. ) All the re£i is performed by ^fttxHta- 
rkj. Which ( Auxiliaries ) have no more Tenfes, than the oiher Verbs. 
Thofe ^uxiiiariesj are, Do, did ; U^rl/, vmld ; Skx/J, fhmld ; May-^ m'l^ht ; 
Can J could ^ Afi^ft^ ought to; Harui, had; ylm (^be^^lVas. And if, by Ex- 
amples , you can in/inuate the fignification of thefe Few Words ; you 
will have taught him the whole Flexion of the Verb. 
And here it will be convenient, ( once for all , ) to Write him out a 
full paradigm of fome one Verb , ( I'uppofe , to See^) through all thofe 
Auxiliaries. 
The Verb it felf, hath but thefe Four Words to be learned,- See, fxrv^ 
f^ingy fnn. Save that, after r/x)« in the Seeond Perfon fingular ( in both 
Tenfes ) we add efi 5 and, in the Third Perfon fingular ( in the Prefent 
Tenfe ) eth or es : <f)r, inftead thereof, st, th^ s. And fo in all Verbs. 
Then, to the Auxiliaries, Do didj U^iit rrottid, ShaH Jhould^ May migk^ 
Can couldj Muji ought to, we adjoin the Indefinite S^. And , after ff^nt 
hadj ( ) roas , the paffive Participle Stm. And lb for all other 
Verbs. 
But the Auxiliary or Bty is fomewhai Irregular ; in a double form \ 
^m, an, is; Plural, ^re. Was, r^afl, was; Plural, Jf^ere. 
Be, beeji, be; Plural, Be. Were, rvert,Tvere ; Plural, Were. 
Be ( am, ) ivas, di'mg, been. 
Which (attended with the other Auxiliaries) make up the whole Paprue 
i-^oice. 
All Verbs ( without Exception ) in the yiEHvt Participle , are formed 
by adding As, See, feeing; Teach, teaching, Sec. 
The Preter tenfe, and the PaJ^ive Participle, are formed ( regularly ) by 
adding ed. But are oft rubje<fl to ContraEiions , and other Irregularities, 
( fometime, the fame in both; fome time, different.) And therefore it is 
convenient , here, to give a Table of Verbs ( efpecially the moft ufual ) 
for thofe Three cafes. ( Which may, at once, teach their Signifcatim, and 
their Formation.) As, Boil, boiled, boiled; l^fi, rofled, rofled; Bak^e , bak^d, 
iak^d;S<c. Teach,taughtj taught ; Bring, brought, brought; Bay, bou^t, bough ,

Wherein lies the whole Regimen of the Noun. ( ForDiverfity ofc^r^/, 
we have none, ) The force "of which is to be infinuated by convenient 
Examples, iuited to their different Significations. As, for inliance,
