Excerpt from The Use of the Voice in Reading and Speaking: A Manual for Clergymen and Candidates for Holy Orders The following treatise records the results of some thirty years of study and observation in the expressive uses of the voice. During that time the author has had experience, both as a clergyman and as an instructor in elocution. It has been prepared in the sincere hope that it may be of use to the Clergy and Candidates for Orders in the discharge of Divine Service. Part I. contains exercises in vocal drill, with the statement of some of the principles of elocution, which will be found serviceable to every clergyman, if reduced to practice. The author is emboldened to make this assertion from the testimonials of many pupils, who have been brought out of imperfections in speech, and have attained to eminence as public speakers by drill of this character. Part II. treats of the reading of the Service throughout - specifically, to a large extent, with such general directions as will cover the reading of the remainder.
