Plate 6.1 Excerpt from ‘Dialogue X’, in Abel Boyer, The Compleat French Master for Ladies and Gentlemen (10th edn, London, 1729). British Library shelfmark 1607/249, reproduced by permission of the British Library.

At first, read over all [the grammar] rules two or three days, stop a little to the Articles, and see the Appellative Nouns which take always le, la, les, … and du, de, de la, des … Contrary to the proper names which take not; See the Tables of all the Verbs Regular, and Irregular … Begin the third day to compose by the help of a Dictionary; without which you shall never have the French. Continue every day to turn what English you can into French, and it will not be past a month but you shall find a great Improvement.35
