_Dhis dhey, dhat know me, know; dhat lov me, tel._
To' keep Inglish, dhus like French and Lattin, or spelling dhe contrast ov
speech; our litterature haz hiddherto' no likenes ov our language; and haz
continnued inaccessibel to' evvery native, az much az to' evvery strainger.
For, hwile we lernedly lov to' see
Aloe, melon, lily, solemn,
carol, very, spirit, coral, borough,
manor, tenant, minute, honor, punish,
clamor, blemish, limit, comet, pumice,
chapel, leper, triple, copy,
habit, rebel, tribute, probate,
heifer, profit,
cavil, revel, drivel, novel, hovel,
city, pity, british, critic,
madam, credit, idiom, body, study,
tacit, licit,
hazard, ezad, lizard, closet, bosom,
vicar,
liquor,
liquid,
rigor,
rigid:
We shrewdly hope to' hear,
Alloe, mellon, lilly, sollemn,
carrol, verry, spirrit, corral, burrow,
mannor, tennant, minnute, onnor, punnish,
clammor, blemmish, limmit, commet, pummice,
chappel, lepper, trippel, coppy,
habbit, rebbel, tribbute, probbate,
heffer, proffit,
cavvil, revvel, drivvel, novvel, hovvel,
citty, pitty, brittish, crittic,

tascit, liscit,
hazzard, ezzad, lizzard, clozzet, buzzom,
viccar,
liccor,
licquid,
riggor,
ridgid.
Hwile dhus notthing but _s_ can dubbel soft _c_, or sibbilantly shut dhe
preceding vowel; and render _precious_, or _vicious_, hwat dhey ar; but
_prescious_, or _viscious_; dhe sibbilants direct simpel figgure may not
onely becom, in dhe ostensibel _physic_, _visit_, and _vision_, a dubbel
depressive; in dhe real _phyzzic_, _vizzit_, and _vizzion_; but work equal
wonders, in _polysyllables_ ov anny extension; pretending, in dhe verry
name, to' paint _pollysyllabels_. And dhus dhe trokees grow innumerabel,
dhat shut and sharpen, shortening dhe former vowel; hwich dhey hav
hiddherto' pretended to' exhibbit slowly and smoodhly open: so leving
singuel dhe intermediate articulacion, hwich must be audibly dubbel, (must
shut az wel az articculate,) and continnue dhe equal impossibillity, ov
reading and writing our language.
For, _hwen_ our _diccion_ attains, like _oddhers_, _dhe_ happy _habbit_
_ov_ appearing hwat it iz; alternate strength and febelnes must prezent
_mallice_ and _maliscious_, _sollemn_ and _solemnity_, _morral_ and
_morallity_, _mannor_ and _manorial_, _limmit_ and _limmitacion_, _habbit_
and _habittual_, _spirrit_, _spirritual_, and _spirrituallity_. So evvery
consequencial, hweddher ov trocaic or dactyllian stres: _orrigin_,
_oridginal_, _oridginality_, or _originallity_, _reallity_, _quallity_,
_equallity_, _verrity_, _verrily_, _ennemy_, _ammity_, _appathy_,
_probbity_; so, widh _propphet_, _propphesy_, and _propphecy_; but, by
penultimate or antepenultimate ennergy, (dhe stres on last but won, or last
but two',) _prophettic_, or _prophettical_: widh _philossophy_,
_philossopher_, and _philosopphic_; widh _avvarice_, _avvariscious_;
_lodgic_, _logiscian_; _phyzzic_, _phyziscian_; _immage_, _imadgine_;
_madjesty_, _majestic_. Az _alliment_, _saccrament_; az _orrifice_,
_saccrifice_, and _orrator_, widhout violacion ov aught _sacred_, or
chainge ov _oracion_.

5. OV DHE ASPIRATES, AND DHEIR INSERTIVES.
_Oracion_ indeed iz dhus kept _sacred_ az _orrator_: for _t_ cood nevver
sibbilate (or play _s_) in _orthoggraphy_, aincient or moddern; nor a
dubbel articulacion pretend to' look singuel, more dhan a singuel a dubbel
won. Dhe dactyl _orthodox_ admits littel chainge in dhe dubbel trokee
_orthodoxy_; like _mellancolly_, vulgarly _melancholy_: but _orthoggraphy_
and _orthograpphical_ ar, widh equal harmony, subject to' antepenultimate
power. Like Propriety dherfor inserts dhe shutter we hear, in dhe
duplication, az ov evvery simpel, so ov evvery aspirate, duly dubbled by
dhe simpel insertive. Dhus _p_ dubbels _ph_, and even _f_, _f_; in
_propphet_, and _proffit_. But, az _ph_ became _f_; so _bh_, universally
_v_, nescessarily dubbelled in _provverb_. Az _s_ or _z_ dubbels dhe soft
sibbilant aspirate, (_sh_ or _zh_) in _prescious_, _decizzion_, _t_ or _d_,
respectively, dubbled dhat dhey rendered equal to' _tsh_ or _dzh_: az
_tutching_ dhe _madjesty_ ov _relidgion_.
