Admiration is always put after a Sentence wherein something is exclaimed against or admired at as Oh the vain pleasures of the World Oh that ever Man should be charged with the guilt of his own ruin A Parenthesis is when a Sentence is inserted in the middle of another Sentence between two Semicircles which if wholly neglected or omitted the sense would not be spoiled As I shall in a few words because many would be too tedious give you an information of the whole matter Here if these words because many would be too tedious were left out yet the sense would be perfect There are also many other marks which you will meet with in Reading as sometimes when a Vowel is left out in a word you will find this mark over its place viz. ' which is called Ap●strophus as th' intent for the intent consum'd for consumed I 'll for I will c. In compound words you shall find a short Line made between them which is called an Hyphen as Self-denial Time-servers Will-worship and likewise when you have not room to write the whole word in the Line you ought to make the same mark at the end to signifie the rest of the word to be in the other Line And you will find such marks as these in the Bible and other Books viz. * † and ‖ which are called notes of reference and do serve to refer or direct the Readers to look for some proof note or observation which you will find at the same mark in the Margin And sometimes the Letters of the Alphabet are inserted in a smaller Character for the same purpose When another Author is quoted in his own words commonly the beginning of each Line of the same is distinguisht from the rest by a double Comma reversed thus When in writing any Word or Sentence is forgotten then must it be written over the Line and this mark ⁁ called a Caret must be made under the Line pointing between the words where the said word or sentence must come in Likewise at the beginning of a new Head or Section there is by most Authors set this mark § An Appendix to the English School-master compleated containing the Principles of Arithmetick with an Account of Coins Weights and Measures Time c. Copies of Letters and Titles of Honour suitable for Men of all Degrees and Qualities Bills of Parcels Bills of Exchange Bills of Debt Receipts and several other Rules and Observations fi● for a Youths Accomplishment in the way of Trade The Principles of Arithmetick ALL number is expressed by Nine Figures and a Cypher which are thus Charactered viz. 1 one 2 two 3 three 4 four 5 five 6 six ● seven 8 eight 9 nine 0 a Cypher When any number is given whose value you would know you are to consider that the first figure to the Right Hand signifies but its own single value the second is ten times its value as if it be 4 it signifies forty the third is an hundred times its own value as if it be 4 it signifies four hundred according to the following Table First place 1 Units Second place 2 Tens Third place 3 Hundreds Fourth place 4 Thousands Fifth place 5 X of Thousands Sixth place 6 C of Thousands Seventh place 7 Millions Eighth place 8 X of Millions Ninth place 9 C of Millions To value this or any other number begin at the 1 saying Units Tens Hundreds Thousands c. But to read it you must begin at the 9 saying Nine Hundred Eighty Seven Millions Six Hundred Fifty Four Thousand Three Hundred Twenty One In like manner this number viz. 507 is five hundred and seven and 3426 is three thousand four hundred twenty six ADDITION of Integers ADdition teacheth to add divers numbers together and to bring them to one total Sum. When two or more numbers are given to be added together you are to place them units under units tens under tens hundreds under hundreds c. Then add up the first row in the place of units and if they be under ten set down what they come to but if it come to ten or more than ten or twenty or thirty c. then set down the excess and for every ten carry an unite to the next row and proceed in the same manner with every row till you come to the last and whatever that comes to you must set it all down Example Let it be required to find the Sum of 234 and 341 and 923 first I put them one under another as followeth 234   341   923   1498 Sum. Then I begin at the units saying 3 and 1 and 4 make 8 which I put under the Line then to the next row saying 2 and 4 and 3 make 9 which I also set down under its row then to the next row saying 9 and 3 and 2 make 1● which I set down and the work is done and I find the Sum of these three numbers to be 1●9 Again let it be required to find the Sum of 796 ●87 479 and 316 first I set them down in order as you see in the Margent 796   587   479   316   2178 Sum. Then I begin with the row of units and find it to come to 28 wherefore I place the 8 under the Line and carry 2 to the next row for the two tens and I find that row to come to 27 wherefore I put the 7 under the Line and carry 2 to the next row then I add up the third row and find it to come to 21 all which I set down because it is the last row and so I find the Sum of these 4 given numbers to be 2178.
