The act of goingthe rounds in a garrisoa.to observe that ordersare kept; those that go the rounds.tT All our orthoepists give this word, both as nounand verb, the accent on the last syllable, except Mr.Nares, who wishes to reduce it to the accentual dis-tinction so often observed, 492. Johnson's folio edi-tion has the accent of both words on the first, but thequarto accents both on the last; and this accentuation,it is certain, is the most received among the politeworld.

$y That the first syllable of this word is short, andthat of patron long, is owing to (he shortening powerof the antepenultimate accent, 503.
PATRONAL, pat'rA-nal, a. Protecting, sup-porting, guarding, defending.ty This word, like Matronal, has a diversity ofpronunciation in our Dictionaries, which shows thenecessity of recurring to principles in ordtr to fix itstrue sound. Buchanan places the accent on the firstsyllable; but whether he makes the a long or sh<:tcannot be known. Dr. Ash places the accent on thesame syllable ; and though he makes the - # in Matron-al short, yet he makes the same letter in this wordlong as in Patron . Barclay and Fenuing lay the stressupont he first of Matronal and ou the seeuiit! of Patron -al: Perry and iintick place the accent on the first ofboth these words, but make the a in Matronal long,and the same letter in Patronal short. Bailey accentsthe second syllable of this word.
PATRONESS, pa'trun-es, s. A female thatdefends, countenances, or supports ; a fetuuleguardian saint.
fy I am well aware of the shortening power of theantepenultimate accent in Patronage, Patronise, &c.but cannot, as Mr. Sheridan, Mr. Scott, W. Johnston,Dr. Kenrick, ami Mr. Perry, have done, allow it thatpower in Patroness, because the feminine termina-tion ess is as much a subjunctive of our own as theparticipial terminations ing or ed, or the plural num-ber, and therefore never ought to alter the accent orquantity of the original word.—See principles, Nos.386.4Q9
