The minor or diminished seventh may be approached by a skip in an upward direction on the weak beat in any part. This usually necessitates the omission of some other chord-member on the weak beat.
The major or minor ninth may also be used in the same way, except in the lowest part, provided it is at least a ninth above the root. [[Fig. 96.]]
| Fig. 96. |
The progression from vii°6 to V in root-position or any inversion in the same measure, is good. [[Fig. 97.]] Use b and c only when using other than first species in two or more parts.

Each measure should usually contain a complete chord. If not complete on the first beat, bring the missing interval in on the second. [[Fig. 98.]]
| Fig. 98. |
The cadences in [Fig. 99] are good, and will suggest others. The use of the fourth species is permitted as at a. A note may be repeated in the final cadence in all species as at b.
