which has been held to be the suggested meaning) is what

entity (i. e., substance) is spoken of along with what is to be
accomplished (i. e. an action), the former is mentioned as
subserving the purposes of the latter ; and according to
this principle, when substantives become correlated to
verbs (e. g. in the expression ‘bring the cow ’), they them-

cow can be accomplished only when she herself does the
walking] ; and in this case (where the accomplished entity,
