All the insertions and omissions of the Greek Article respect Appellative Nouns, Proper Names,-Abstract Terms, -certain cases of apparent anomaly,-some peculiar words,and the concord of the Adjective with the Substantive. Each of these will be the subject of a proposition, with subordinate divisions.
