In this sketch of the formation and distribution * Propriety ascertained in her Picture/ p. 3. %,Amsua!GE. 137 of the consonants, it is curious to observe on howfew radical principles, the almost infinite varietyof combination in language depends. It is withsome degree of wonder, we perceive that theslightest aspiration, the almost insensible inflexionof nearly similar sounds, often generate the mostdifferent and opposite meanings. In this viewof nature, as in every other, we find uniformityand variety very conspicuous. Tiie sing I e fiat,at first imprinted on the chaos, seems to operate-on languages; which from the simplicity andpaucity of their principles, and the extent andpower of their combinations, prove the goodness,wisdom, and omnipotence of their origin. This aualogical association of sounds is notonly c
