LESSON XXVIII.

PARSING.

Parse all the pronouns in the following sentences:—

1.I have the knife which you gave me.
2.He saw the letter that I wrote.
3.Who told you they did it?
4.Few shall meet where many part.—Campbell.
5.He is the freeman whom the truth makes free.—Cowper.
6.There’s a divinity that shapes our ends,
Rough-hew them as we will.—Shakespeare.
7.I have seen him buy such bargains as would amaze one.—Goldsmith.
8.Ye, therefore, who love mercy, teach your sons
To love it too.—Cowper.
9.I dare do all that may become a man,
Who dares do more is none.—Shakespeare.
10.Breathes there a man with soul so dead,
Who never to himself hath said,
This is my own, my native land.—Scott.

Model:—I have the knife which you gave me.
