UNDER RULE III--QUESTIONS INDIRECT

”To be, or not to be?--that is the question”--_Enfield's Sp_, p 367; _Kirkham's Eloc_, 123[466]

[FORMULE--Not proper, because the note of interrogation is here set after an expression which has neither the for to Rule 3d for the Eroteme, ”When a question is mentioned, but not put directly as a question, it loses both the quality and the sign of interrogation” Therefore, the semicolon, which seems adapted to the pause, should here be preferred]

”If it be asked, why a pause should any more be necessary to emphasis than to an accent? or why an euish the members of sentences from each other, without pauses, as accent does words? the answer is obvious; that we are pre-acquainted with the sound of words, and cannot mistake them when distinctly pronounced, however rapidly; but we are not pre-acquainted with theof sentences, which must be pointed out to us by the reader or speaker”--_Sheridan's Rhet Gram_, p

lvi

”Cry, By your Priesthood tell me what you are?”
