Excerpt: ...us mark at once the The following remarks of St. Augustine on this subject nre curious: --' Donee perveniatur eo ut res cum sono verbi aliqua similitudine concinat, ut cum dicimus aeris tinnitum, equorum hinnitum, ovium balatum, tubarum clangorem, stridorem catenarum (perspicis enim haec verba ita sonars ut ipsse res quse his verbis significantur).

If, then, we either follow the history of this root MAR in an ascending line and spreading direction, or if we trace its offshoots back in a descending line to that specific germ, we must be able to explain all later modifications, as necessitated by phonetic and etymological laws; in all the various settings, the jewel must be the same, and in all its various corruptions the causes must be apparent that produced the damage. I begin, then, with the root 3IAR, and ascribe to it the meaning of grinding down. In all the words that nomina peperit: ut ipsum lene cum dicimus leniter sonat, quis item asperilatem non et ipso nomine asperam judicet? Lene est auribus cum dicimus voluptas, asperum cum dicimus..
