I, earned Doctor Holder is of an Opinion, That divers Confonants are Articulated by Breath not Vocalized, receiving flops by the Organs of S eech: For, faith the worth)' Author, itis one thing to Breath, or give an appulfe to Breath alone, and another to Vocalize that Breath in its Paf. (ago through the Larynx, to give it the found of Humane Vorce. Thus the faine Articulation of Breath alone, maketh one Letter, and Breath Vocalized another; which feemeth to me a nice Difiintftion. For according to my meaner Sentiments, all Letters vocally pronounced, are Breath firl't flop. ped, and then rendred Sonorous in the Larynx, and afterward receive new models of more cxaét Voice, made by fevcral appulfes oi the Organs. For [cannot well apprehend. how Letters fpoken out, can be Breath Articula. [ed without: Humane Voice, which is rather Whifpering then Speaking. And now after this Diverfion, I will proceed to the other Letters. mimiimi F, is Articulated by railing the under Lip to the Teeth inward, which 53'1""‘1fi‘l1' is performed partly by the Temporal Mufcle, lifting up the lower Mandi- iic‘lmlqiill‘lp ble and Lip to the Upper row of the Teeth, and the other Motion of draw. [mm ing in the Lip to the Teeth, is performed by the lower region of the Confirifior Labiflrllfll; which is done ( as I conceive) by various Fibres decullating, each other, whereby the Lips are clofed, and alfo drawn inward, to the ripper Teeth, as in the formation of F, caufing a Lifping Sound, the Breath being impelled, and as it were percolated through the Teeth. 3 mucuii.
