the tuich so diverse, this symbol can be no reason serve that sound, nor
nane of that kynd.

11. As for v and w, seeing we have in our idiom, besyd the latin sound,
an other never hard in latin, as now it is pronu_n_ced, I can not but
com_m_end the wisdom of the south, q_uhi_lk gave the latin sound their
awn symbol, and took to our sound a symbol quhilk they use not. Lyke was
their wisdom in j and y; for as the latines usurped the voual i for a
consonant in their use, q_uhi_lk the greekes had not, so they usurped y,
a voual not mikle different from i, for the correspondent sound, not
used in the latin as now it is pronu_n_ced.

12. Heerfoer, for distinctiones of both sound and symbol, I wald commend
the symbol and name of i and u to the voual sound; as, indifferent,
unthankful; the symbols of j and v to the latin consonantes, and their
names to be jod and vau; as, vain jestes; and the symboles y and w to
our English soundes, and their names to be ye and we, or yod and wau;
as, yonder, wel, yallou, wool.

13. Now remaineth h, q_uhi_lk we have called a noat of aspiration, cap.
2, sect. 2, and is, in deed, noe voual, because with a consonant it
makes noe sound; as, ch; nor consonant, because it is pronu_n_ced
without the tuich of the mouth; as, ha.

14. It may affect al vouales _and_ diphthonges; as, hand, hen, hind,
hose, hurt, hail, hautie, health, heel, heifer, _etc._ But behind the
voual in our tong (so far as yet I can fynd) it hath no use. Of
consonantes, it affecteth g beyond the voual; as, laugh; p befoer the
voual; as, phason; s and t also befoer the voual; as, think, shame.
With c we spil the aspiration, tur_n_ing it into an Italian chirt; as,
