EXERCISES IN FALSE SYNTAX.

NOTE 1, to RULE 13. When a noun or pronoun is the subject of a verb, it

must be in the nominative case.

Who will go? Him and I. How does thee do? Is thee well?

"Him and I;" not proper, because the pronoun _him_ is the subject of the

verb _will go_ understood, therefore him should be in the nominative

case, _he_, according to the above NOTE. (Repeat the NOTE.) _Him_ and I

are connected by the conjunction _and_, and _him_ is in the obj. case,

and I in the nom., therefore RULE 33d, is violated. (Repeat the Rule.)

In the second and third examples, _thee_ should be _thou_, according to

the NOTE. The verbs, _does_ and _is_, are of the third person, and the

nom. _thou_ is second, for which reason the verbs should be of the

second person, _dost do_ and _art_, agreeably to RULE 4. You may correct

the other examples, _four_ times over.
