OF THE FORMATION OF THE PRETERIT IMPARFYTE.

Ye shall forme the preterit imperf. in all verbes of both conjugations

by the fyrst person plurell nombre, turnyng this syllable _ons_, whiche

is in every verbe, in _oie_ for the fyrst conjugation: and _sons_ in

_soie_, in the second, soundynge _s_, lyke a _z_, as _zons, zoie._

Example for the fyrst conjugation as in this verbe _aymons_, whiche is

the fyrst person plurell nombre of _jaime_, chaungyng this syllable

_ons_ in _oie_, ye have _aimoie;_ of _auons_, ye have _auoie;_ of

_donnons, donnoie_.

Example for the seconde conjugation, as in these worde: _baisons_,

turnynge the last syllable, whiche is _sons_ in _soie_, ye have of

_brisons, brisoie;_ of _faisons_, _faisoie;_ of _disons, disoie;_ and

the seconde persone shall termyne in _ois_, the thirde in _oit;_ the

fyrst plurell nombre in _ions_ for the fyrst, and _sons_ for the

seconde, as it shall appere clerely in the conjugations herafter

folowing, and this rule is infallyble for all preterites imparfyte.
