Elements of Elocution In which the principles of reading and speaking are investigated; and such pauses, emphasis, and inflexious of voice, as are suitable to every variety of sentence, are distinctly pointed out and explained; with directions for strengthening and modulating the voice, so as to render it varied, forcible, and harmonious. To which is added, a complete system of the passions, showing how they affect the countenance, tone of voice, and gesture of the body, exemplified by a copious selection of the most striking passages of Shakespeare. The whole illustrated by copper-plates, explaining the nature of accent, emphasis; inflexion, and cadence. The second edition; with alterations and additions. By John Walker, author of the critical pronouncing dictionary, &c
