Chapter 14 of The Latter-Day Prophet by George Q. (George Quayle) Cannon holds 67 sentences, grouped into 14 reading sections of at most 5 sentences. The text is the source edition, unabridged, and the chapter records which sentences cover which part of the work so that nothing is dropped. Every word can be tapped for its pronunciation and dictionary entry.

What does chapter 14 of The Latter-Day Prophet contain?

Chapter 14 holds 67 sentences of The Latter-Day Prophet, unabridged, divided into 14 reading sections.

This page carries chapter 14 of The Latter-Day Prophet by George Q. (George Quayle) Cannon exactly as it stands in the source edition, without abridgement. It runs to 67 sentences, grouped into 14 sections of at most 5 sentences so that a reader can take the chapter in steady, finishable pieces. The chapter also stores a coverage record mapping every one of its sentences to a part of the work, which is how the edition demonstrates that no line was dropped.

How do I study chapter 14 of The Latter-Day Prophet?

Work through the 14 sections in order, replaying any sentence and tapping unfamiliar words for their entries.

Each of the 14 sections in this chapter is short enough to read once, hear once, and then re-read with the vocabulary in view. Tapping a word plays it alone and opens its dictionary entry with IPA, part of speech and meaning, so the reader is never forced to guess a pronunciation from spelling. Working section by section keeps a long chapter from becoming an undifferentiated wall of text, which is the usual reason a reader abandons a work of this period.

Can chapter 14 be read aloud to me?

Yes — every sentence and every individual word in chapter 14 can be played aloud in United States English.

Audio covers the whole chapter: any sentence can be played, and any single word within it can be played on its own. The voice uses United States English. For a work of this period that matters, because spelling is an unreliable guide to pronunciation for vocabulary that has fallen out of daily use, and a learner who guesses wrong tends to keep the error. Hearing the word in its own sentence, and then alone, settles it.

Questions about reading The Latter-Day Prophet

Common questions about reading The Latter-Day Prophet by George Q. (George Quayle) Cannon on this page, its source edition and its audio.

Is this the complete text of The Latter-Day Prophet?

Yes. All 2521 sentences of Project Gutenberg eBook #56698 are kept, with a record of which sentences cover which part.

Which edition of The Latter-Day Prophet is used?

Project Gutenberg eBook #56698, unabridged. The Project Gutenberg header, footer and licence are removed.

How long does The Latter-Day Prophet take to read?

About 210 minutes of reading across 505 sections of 5 sentences each, at an unhurried pace.
