Seite 1052 - Verbs tell of something to be done. To read, count, sing, laugh, jump, or run ; How things are done the adverbs tell, As slowly, quickly, ill, or well ! Conjunctions join the words together, As men and women, wind or weather ; The preposition stands before A noun, as in, or through a door ; The interjection shows surprise, As Oh ! how pretty, Ah ! how wise ; The whole are called nine parts of speech, Which reading, writing, speaking teach.
Seite 673 - Two legs sat upon three legs, With one leg in his lap ; In comes four legs, And runs away with one leg. Up jumps two legs, Catches up three legs, Throws it after four legs, And makes him bring back one leg.
