` `
` DICTATION EXERCISES. `
` `
` To essay the task, requires courage. The discourse was an able essay. An `
` agent will assay the ore, and forward a receipt. Contemn a mean act; but `

` inveighed against. `

` knack for rhymes. She knew how to knead the dough. They cut the knot with `
` a knife. The curfew tolls the knell of parting day. The knave had hard `
` knuckles, but little knowledge. `
