LESSON 56.
ARRANGEMENT--IMPERATIVE AND EXCLAMATORY SENTENCES.
The subject is usually omitted in the imperative sentence; but, when it is
expressed, the sentence is in the transposed order.
+Examples+.--_Praise ye_ the Lord. _Give_ (_thou_) me three grains of corn.
+Direction+.--_Using these verbs, write ten sentences, in five of which the
subject shall be omitted; and in five, expressed_:--
Remember, listen, lend, love, live, choose, use, obey, strive, devote.
Although any sentence may without change of order become exclamatory
(Lesson 46), yet exclamatory sentences ordinarily begin with _how_ or
_what_, and are usually in the transposed order.
+Examples+.--_How quietly_ the child sleeps! _How excellent_ is thy
loving-kindness! _What visions_ have I seen! _What a life_ his was!
+Direction+.--_Write six exclamatory sentences with the word how modifying
(1) an adjective, (2) a verb, and (3) an adverb--in three sentences let the
verb follow, and in three precede, the subject.
