ADJECTIVE PRONOUNS.

[Sidenote: _Function of adjective pronouns._]

131. Most of the words how to be considered are capable of a double
use,--they may be pure modifiers of nouns, or they may stand for
nouns. In the first use they are adjectives; in the second they retain
an adjective _meaning_, but have lost their adjective _use_. Primarily
they are adjectives, but in this function, or use, they are properly
classed as adjective pronouns.

The following are some examples of these:--

_Some_ say that the place was bewitched.--IRVING.

That mysterious realm where _each_ shall take
His chamber in the silent halls of death.
--BRYANT.

How happy is he born or taught
That serveth not _another's_ will.
--WOTTON
