NOTE XIII--Perfect participles being variously forreeably to the best usage, and also to distinguish them from the preterits of their verbs, where there is any difference of form Example: ”It would be well, if all writers who endeavour to be accurate, would be careful to avoid a corruption at present so prevalent, of saying, _it rote_, for, _it ritten; he was drove_, for, _he was driven; I have went_, for, _I have gone_, &c, in all which instances a verb is absurdly used to supply the proper participle, without any necessity from the want of such word”--_Harris's Hermes_, p 186
