PREFACE TO THE SECOND EDITION.

IN this edition many changes and additions have been made,

which, it is hoped, will make it much more useful than the

former was. The hearty thanks of the editor are due, and

given, to several teachers for suggestions and corrections, but

especially to Professor M. W. Humphreys, LL.D., of the Uni-

versity of Texas, and Professor A. C. Zenos, M.A., of Lake

Forest University. The latter has also kindly read the proofs of

this edition.

PREFACE.

THIS little book is intended to be put into the hands of

pupils as soon as they have learned the first declension and

the present indicative active of the verb. The stories are

graded with this, and the subsequent progress of the pupils

through all the declensions and verb forms, in view. But it

is not a parsing book. It is intended to be a help toward a

pleasant and rapid translation.

The book has grown out of the needs of my own work.

An experience of some years with a volume scarcely fitted for

the place it is hoped this will fill, has abundantly justified the

belief that Greek for beginners can be made attractive, and

that, therefore, far more can be accomplished in a given time

than when pupils are launched into Xenophon from the Gram-

mar and First Book. Aside from the questionableness of put-

ting a classic author into beginners' hands, a procedure tolerated

only with Latin and Greek, Xenophon ushers pupils into a whole

world of thought and custom unfamiliar to them;and he is too

apt to present grammatical and other difficulties with disheart-

ening frequency. By giving stories complete in themselves,

the disadvantage to a young student of feeling day by day that

there is something left unfinished, and which, in the end, he

may never complete, is removed. Besides, it may perhaps be

no detriment that the stories are, for the most part at least,

interesting enough to provoke voluntary effort to read them.

Page 12: Moss - A First Greek Reader

vi PREFACE.

If any object to first classes reading other than classic Greek,

a perusal of Kruger's Preface to Arrian's Anabasis will show

what an undoubted authority in classical matters can say to the

contrary. Objections to transforming Herodotus and Lucian

can be met by reference to various English works of good re-

pute in which a similar plan is pursued.

A considerable part of the notes is made up of references to

similar words and phrases previously used. Several ends are

reached by this, not the least of which is to encourage pupils to

keep well in hand the work they have gone over. Another,

scarcely less important, is to beget the habit of illustrating one

part of the text by that already passed over. In the matter of

words it would seem better for a beginner to refer to a sentence

in which they are actually used, than to a vocabulary where all

connections in sense are lost. A large share of the use most

pupils make of a vocabulary is to hunt out words whose mean-

ings they might recall with a little more patience. That benefit

to his use of his mother tongue which a student is supposed to

derive from the study of another language, is thereby greatly

abridged. Anything that will tend to break up this habit and

turn the strength thus wasted to a better purpose, is a gain in

every way. The grammatical references have the same object

primarily in view, but due attention is' given to the illustration of

syntax. Where attention is called to cognates and derivatives,

it is as a suggestive help to translation, and that only.

Finally, the book is sent out in the hope that it may be use-

ful at a point where, unless analogy is at fault, a gap is most

detrimental to a student's hope and progress.

HINTS FOR TRANSLATING AND CONSTRUING.

1. ACCUSTOM yourself at the outset to run your eye over a

sentence, and group together those words whose endings (and

positions) show that they agree. Then remember that,

a. The subject is often a personal pronoun implied in the

verb.

b. It is as likely to be found after the verb as before it.

c. An infinitive is more likely to have its subject in the accu-

sative than not.

d. If there is no finite verb to be seen, m or cto-6 is often

left out.

e. If the sentence seems to have nothing in it but nominatives,

the subject may often be detected by the presence of the article

before it, as predicates rarely take one.

f. In translating sentences beginning with a verb, you can

often use ' there;

'

as ' there is,' or 'there came.'

2. Do not think it necessary to know the meaning of every

word before beginning to translate a Greek sentence into an

English one, and least of all to hunt up every word in the

vocabulary in the order in which it stands in the sentence. If

you say,' He is a man, and his country dearly,' you

would need no dictionary to tell you that '

good'

or '

patriotic'

and ' loves'

will complete the sentence. Treat the Greek in

the same way for a preliminary translation.

Page 18: Moss - A First Greek Reader

xii FIRST GREEK READER.

a. Many times a Greek sentence will yield sense soonest by

giving it an almost word-for-word translation. Thus, taking at

random the first sentence of story 79 : 'A certain man very

poor being and likewise veiy unfortunate, desired himself to

kill, to die preferring rather than wretchedly to live.' It is clear

enough what this means. A good translation will easily follow.

b. For this preliminary work use the vocabulary as little as

possible. For a final translation you may need to refer to it;

but to use it every time you meet a word whose meaning youdo not happen to know at first sight is irrational, begets a dis-

trust of your own memory, and ease in translation will be

acquired with great difficulty. Recollect that brains and common

sense, not thumbs, should get most exercise.

c. If a sentence after this does not yield sense, there is every

chance that the succeeding ones will throw the needed light

upon it;

therefore keep the run of the story carefully in mind

as you progress.

3. Notice the position of the article, especially if it is a

nominative.

a. All words placed between an article and its noun consti-

tute with the article and noun a single clause, which must be all

construed together, just like a clause in brackets. Take these

two sentences : (l) ot ev rf) n-oAei avOpayrroi Ti/xwirat : (2) ot

avOpwnrot. iv TV) TrdAet Tt/Au-vTat. In (l) the words tv TT) TroAet

must go closely with ot avOpwTroL,'

the-men-in-the-city are

honored;' in (2) lv TTJ TroAct goes not with ot avOpoxrot, but

with Ti/AaJvTat,' the men are honored-in-the-city.'

b. Sometimes after an article and its noun the same article is

repeated, followed by an adjective, or some expression equiva-

lent to an adjective. Thus: (i) 6 avr^p 6 dya#os : (2) ot

avOpwTTOi ot cV Ty TroAct. Here the word or words introduced

by the second article are treated exactly as if they had been

placed between the first article and its noun;

/'. e. they make

Page 19: Moss - A First Greek Reader

HINTS FOR TRANSLATING AND CONSTRUING, xiii

with these a single clause, which must all be construed together.

Thus : (i) 6 dvrjp 6 dya0os = o dya$os avrjp= '

the-good-man ;

'

(2) 01 avOpwrrroi, 01 ei> TTJ TroXei = oi ev TT} TroAet avOptaTroi'the-

men-in-the-city.'

<:. An exceedingly common construction in Greek is that of

the article agreeing with the participle of a verb, just as if this

latter were a substantive. (It occurs sometimes in English, as' the slain,'

' the missing,' etc., but much more frequently in

Greek.) (i) Often it may be construed as a relative clause.

Thus : oi \jseva-dfjievot,' those who lied

;

'

-nys /3ucriAei>ovo->7s,' of

her who is reigning ;

'

TO ^po^tvov,'that which is being carried.'

(2) But sometimes it may be more neatly and compactly ex-

pressed by turning the participle into a substantive. Thus, in the

instances just given : oi i/ruo-a//,ei/oi,' the liars ;' TT}S pua-iXevovcnjs,

1 of the queen ;

'

TO o^epo'/xevov,'the burden.'

d. An article in Greek is often best translated by a possessive

pronoun,'

my, your, his, its, their,' etc. Common sense will

show you which pronoun to choose. Thus : Xovop-ai TG\S xe*-Pa?>

* / wash my hands;

'

Ipp^e rov Secrp-ov,' he broke his chain,'

or ' she broke her chain,' or '

it broke its chain,' according

to the context; vie&nxn. TOIIS VTT^KOOVS,

'

they oppress their

subjects,' etc.

e. The article may combine with an infinitive and produce a

kind of verbal neuter noun. Thus : TO Aeyv, (literally' the

to-speak,' i.e.} 'the power to speak,' 'speech' (declined, TOV

Xc'yeiv,TO> Ae'yetv, etc.) ; TO Qvt]<jK.f.w,

' the act of dying,''

death.'

4- ttVTO?. TtS.

a.' The same '

is always 6 cords. Thus: 'the same man,'

6 arros avr)p :

' of the same woman,' T^S corn)? yvvaiKos.

b. 'Self (if it is not reflexive) is coVo's, without the article

before it. Thus :

' he himself said it,' COT-OS Tavro. el-n-fv :

'these

men themselves were killed,' OUTOI oi ai/Spes avrol a.Tr-i-6a.vov :

' the wall of the city itself,' TO TCI^OS r^s TroAtcus

Page 20: Moss - A First Greek Reader

FIRST GREEK READER.

c. T (indef.) standing alone means ' some one,''some.'

But frequently it agrees with some other word, and means' a certain

;

'

as av&pi TIVL ravra e-oWe,* he gave this to a

certain man.'

5. By all means learn carefully the pronouns, particularly

GIT-OS, OO-TIS, and oSe ;and no less carefully the adjective ouSei's-

Such forms as r&Se, ovnva, and ovSejuav will then be easy to

handle.

6. Mind your stops, especially the interrogation point (;).

Remember that often a pair of commas are used instead of

parentheses, whereas a single comma makes a separate new

clause.

7. In this book a hyphen is put between the augment, and

reduplication, and verb-stem, and between the parts of most

compound words. Thus l-reivov is a verb, and cannot be mis-

taken for a noun; 7rpo-e-8t8ow, the same

;but fv-epyerrjs,

'

well-

doer,'' benefactor

;

'

<rufi-/u,axos, prep, o-w,'

with,' plus root of

fiaxofuu,'I fight,' hence '

ally.' This device will, it is hoped,aid the student in getting at the form and meaning of words.

8. About some special words.

KO.C, and ; often men, also.

8rj, be sure, verily, you know.

dXXa, neuter plural of &\\os, but a\\d = but.

lirtt, -when ; frequently since.

8ri means because or that ; never that in the sense of in order that.

Do not confound with 8re = when, since.

9. The following syllables (among others) are of constant

occurrence in all sorts of combinations, and deserve to be noted

with great care :

yiy, or -yov, or yev, as yly-vo^ai, I become, am ; ytv-os, race, descent.

\vw, as yi-yvtS>-ffKu>, / know ; a-yvd>-fjuuy, ignorant, stupid.

Page 21: Moss - A First Greek Reader

HINTS FOR TRANSLATING AND CONSTRUING. XV

8iK, as SiK-aios, a, ov, just ; S'IK-IJ, suit.

80, as 5i-5<a-fj.i, I give ; irpo-So-Tijs, one who gives before, a betrayer,

traitor ; Su-pov, a gift.

ircp, as irep-oco. 1pass ; wop-evia, Iproceed ; ffj.-Treip-os, a, ov, experienced.

iroXtp., as iro\e/j.-f<a, I make war ; iroAeyu-t/eJs, TJ, 6i>, warlike.

<rra, as Y-OTTJ-/*!, I place ; ffrd-6fj.os, station.

4>av, as <t>aii>-u, I show; a.-q>av-4is, es, invisible.

<J>p, as <p(pw, I bear ; Sut-Qop-d, difference.

<j>i\, as <pi\-fta, I love ; <pi\-6<ro<pos, philosopher.

\wp, as \<ap-a., land; xwP~*u >I give place to, retire; x<aP~ls (

adv.),

separately.

10. No other words will give you more annoyance than the

prepositions, unless you get used to them at the start. It

is well to keep in mind that for the most part it is the case

which borrows the aid of the preposition, not the preposition

which requires that of the case. Hence, just as you would not

say'at homewards,' so in Greek the sense of preposition and

case must agree. Accordingly the sense of the clause will often

give a clue to the best English word to use for the preposition.

All of them have a fundamental meaning, which, if kept in

mind, will aid you greatly to the special meanings. Some are

here given :

irpd = before ; hence also in preference to, in behalf of.

8id = through ; hence also by means of, by reason of.

Kara = down ; hence down from, upon (gen.) ;down along, during

(accus.).

7ri = itpon ; hence also in addition to, on account of.

iropd. = alongside of; hence from (gen.), at (dat.), to (accus.), fke

side of.

irpds, at or by (in front of) ;hence also in addition to, i. e. putting one

thing before another repeatedly; to, toward, i. e. to position at or by.

n. The following verbs exhibit striking differences of mean-

ing between the active and middle voices :

NOTES.

G. refers to Goodwin's Grammar ;H. to the Hadley-Allen. As these refer-

ences are intended to help your translation, as well as give a knowledge of syntax,

they should be looked up carefully. Numerals following words refer to the number

and line of a story where the same or similar words may be found. If n. precedes

them, they refer to the Notes.

In the first forty sections, many words suggestive of English ones are put first,

attention being called to them merely by (?).

looking it up.' avrov : G. 146 ;H. 692 and sub 3. <fx>(&i. See Hints

that of fcjnroi.? The meaning of 'liriroi should suggest a probable one

for &|AO|CU. Ko\deiv, syn. iraietv (see above). diro-rpe'xei. Begin at

once to try to bring out the sig. of preps, in compound vbs. cbrJ generally

means away, from, etc. avTqs. Gen. after KaTa--y\a: G. 171,2; H.

752. Note prep, in this word, and see G. 191, 2, last line; H. 800, last

verse. otirw, KO.KOV. Both used above. Look for them there.

3. icXtirnjs, Kpirf), fivOpwiros- Any Eng. words suggested? 7rdp-e<mj

(irapd). Note this prep, in your grammars: cf. /tar-allel. avrov: G.

167, I ;H. 728-9 a. The gens, of avr6s are always used in Attic Greek

for the 3d pers. his, her, its, their. Ste^s, punishment. Dep. on &ios.

The dialogues (sees. 159-63) are abridged and altered from Lucian, a

satirist of the second century A. D. The human weaknesses and follies

of the gods of Greece gave abundant field for the exercise of his genius.

By bringing out their human side, while keeping us in mind that they

are gods, he makes a truly ridiculous picture of life on Olympus and in

Hades. His satire hit not only the sham religion of his day, but the

equally empty social life. Lucian will well repay your reading here-

after.

KEEP'S HOMER'S ILIAD,

WITH AN INTRODUCTION AND NOTESBY

ROBERT P. KEEP, PH.D.,WILLISTON SEMINARY, EASTHAMPTON, MASS.

BOOKS I.-VI. With a fac simile of a page of the Venetian

Manuscript of the Iliad. 12mo. 364 pages. $1.50.

BOOKS I.-III. Without the fac-simile. 12mo. 216 pages. 80

cents.

In this work much labor has been bestowed upon the introductory

matter, which constitutes a distinctive feature of the book. It contains an

Essay upon the Origin, History, and Transmission of the Homeric Poems,

giving in the form of a connected narrative full explanation in regard to the

Homeric question ;an Essay on Scanning, which presents the subject in a

simple, untechnical way, and illustrates the Homeric verse by the aid of

English hexameters ;and a concise yet complete Sketch of the Homeric

Dialect. The Notes have been made quite full, and aim to supply that col-

lateral information so much needed in the study of Homer. Eeferences

are made to the Greek Grammars of Hadley (Allen's new edition) and

Goodwin.

A very attractive feature of the Six-Book edition is a perfect fac-simile

of a page of the famous Venetian Manuscript of the Iliad, the best man-

uscript of Homer and one of the finest of all existing manuscripts.

No pains have been spared to make these the best-equipped

and the most useful editions of the Iliad which can be put into

the hands of a pupil, and they are almost universally accepted,

not only as the best school editions in the English language of

any part of Homer, but also as tezt-books of altogether excep-

tional merit.

Page 170: Moss - A First Greek Reader

Keep's Homers Iliad.

THE NATION, N. Y. It is seldom that we feel called upon to express un-

qualified approbation of a text-book for schools; but Mr. Robert P. Keep's edition

of the Iliad of Homer, Books I.-VI., leaves so little room for fault-finding that we

shall not attempt any. Facing the titlepage is a beautiful fac-simile of a page ot

the Codex Venetus A (13 x 10 inches), the most important MS. of the Iliad. The

introduction gives a very good summary of the results of investigations of modern

scholars as to the origin and mode of transmission of the Homeric Poems; and,

though necessarily brief, it will yet inform the student of what many quite recent

text-books of the Iliad do not, that there is such a thing as'* the Homeric ques-

tion," and impart some idea of its nature and the different answers which have

been given to it. The sections on the structure and scansion of Homeric verse,

on the dialect of Homer, and the commentary generally, show a nice appreciation

of what a student needs and ought to have. Altogether the book is very handsome

nd very scholarly, and we have no doubt will prove very useful. (October 18,

1883.)

Professor JACOB COOPER, Rutgers College, New Brunswick, N.J. No col-

lege edition of Homer has appeared, either in this or any other country, in the last

twenty years, that shows a superior knowledge of what is needed in the class-

room.

Professor N. L. ANDREWS, Madison University, Hamilton, N.Y. A more

satisfactory edition of the first six Books of the Iliad than this by Dr. Keep could

hardly be prepared. Every scholarly instructor and every good student will value

especially the introductory matter.

Professor GEORGE H. WHITE, Principal Preparatory Department, Oberlin

College, Ohio. Keep's Iliad is evidently superior to any edition now in use, and

we have voted to adopt it for our classes. The introductory matter is valuable, and

includes a satisfactory outline of the Homeric forms ;the notes are scholarly, grace-

ful, and suggestive ; and the whole work reveals the hand of the experienced anc1

enthusiastic teacher.

Professor B. PERRIN, Adelbert College, Cleveland, Ohio. I can clearly see thai

it is by far the best in the field, and I shall at once recommend it for the preparatory

department, and use it myself. I am especially grateful for the chapter on scan-

ning, which could not be improved ; also for the fac-simile of Venetus, and the

table ot grammatical references; but above all for the wealth of class-room ex-

perience which has been incorporated in the book. That cannot be supplied by

mere erudition.

Professor CHAS. F. SMITH, Vanderbilt University, Nashville, Tenn. I have

examined Keep's Iliad with the greatest care, and consider it by far the best Amer-

ican edition, and, indeed, one of the very best text-books we have.

Professor ALEXANDER KERR, Stale University, Madison, Wis. Keep's Iliad

is incomparably the best edition which has appeared in this country.

Page 171: Moss - A First Greek Reader

John Allyn, Publisher, 30, Franklin Street, Boston.

Professor J. H. WRIGHT, Dartmouth College. It possesses many features

that place it far beyond all its competitors.

W. C. COLLAR, Head-Master Roxbury Latin School, Boston. It is certainlyone of the most beautiful, as well as one of the most useful, of school-books; in

fact, I don't know what could be better suited to the needs of a student beginningGreek.

Professor B. L. CILLEY, Phillips fixeter Academy, Exeter, N. #. When mynext class take the Iliad I shall certainly use your new edition. It is just the

thing for them.

Professor E. P. MORRIS, Williams College, Mass. I am at present reading the

Odyssey with a class, and have been comparing Keep's Iliad with Merry's edition

of the first twelve books of the Odyssey. I think the former decidedly superior to

the latter, both in the notes and in the introduction;and as to the school-editions of

the Iliad, there is not one which will stand a comparison with this.

Professor FRANCIS W. TUSTIX, University at Lewisburg, Pa. I have no

hesitation in saying, that in all respects this is the best American edition of the

Iliad that I have seen. I shall use it hereafter with my classes in Homer. Withsuch text-books as this, there is little danger that " Greek must go

" from the curri-

cula of our colleges.

Professor EDWARD B. CLAPP, Illinois College, Jacksonville, 111. I will

not say anything about its external appearance, which is charming, or its typog-

raphy, which is almost ideal. But the introductory matter suits me better than

anything I have seen in a school-edition, and after comparing the notes on the First

Book, line by line, with those in one of our most popular editions, I am convinced

that they are better, fresher, and less mechanical.

Professor E. ALEXANDER, University of Tennessee, Knoxville, Tenn. It is

not easy to think of anything which the editor has omitted in the making of this

perfect text-book. It is filled with clearly arranged matter, quite beyond the usual

range of such books, and students of Homer will thank Dr. Keep for putting so

thoroughly good a book within their reach.

GEORGE L. Fox, High School, New Haven, Conn. My class and I will both,

I am sure, take a keener interest in reading Homer because of this admirable text-

book, for which every teacher of Greek must be grateful to Mr. Keep. It is not

easy for any one to deny that it is altogether the best edition for school use.

Professor JAMES WALLACE, Wooster, Ohio. I have examined it with consid-

erable care, and have no hesitation in pronouncing it an ideal text-book.

Professor JOHN B. FOSTER, Colby University, Waterville, Me. I greatly

admire the volume in all its features, and very heartily join in the high commenda-

tion which it has received from so manv eminent teachers.

COMSTOCK'S FIRST LATIN BOOK.

A First Latin Book, designed as a Manual of Progressive Exercises and

Systematic Drill in the Elements of Latin, and Introductory to Caesar's

Commentaries on the Gallic War. By D. Y. COMSTOCK, M. A., Instruc-

tor in Latin, Phillips Academy, Andover, Mass. 12mo, half leather.

310 pages. 1.00.

The design of this book is to furnish a Manual, complete in itself,

which shall give a thorough preparation for the intelligent study of Caesar's

Gallic War. It contains : I. A Brief Review of English Grammar ; II.

The Elementary Principles and Definitions of Latin Accidence ; III. The

Latin Lessons, with exercises for translation, notes, and test questions ;

IV. The Notes, giving a concise but complete outline of all essential princi-

ples of Latin Syntax ;V. An Appendix of all the necessary forms of

inflection ; VI. Latin-English and English-Latin Vocabularies.

It is heartily commended by the many teachers who are

using it as superior to all other books of the same class, in the

vital points of fulness and accuracy, of clearness and concise-

ness, of judicious gradation and arrangement, and of absolute

completeness.

JOHN S. WHITE, LL.D., Head-Master Berkeley School, New York City.

Comstock's Latin Book I find the best book for its purpose that I have ever used.

The review of English Grammar at the beginning ; the separation of the vocabu-

laries from the exercises; judicious and progressive presentation of the various

uses of the verb in the different moods ; and the condensed exhibit of the gram-

mar, are such valuable features gathered within the covers of a text-book, that

it has no rival.

C. S. MOORE, Principal High School, Taunton, Mass. Having compared

the book with several other elementary Latin books, I have come to the conclusion

that Comstock's is the best one for our use. My reasons for preferring it are as

Page 173: Moss - A First Greek Reader

John Allyn, Publisher, 30, Franklin Street, Boston.

follows : 1. It is complete, requiring no grammar for those who take Latin for

a short time. 2. It is concise without being deficient in material for drill. 3. It

is judicious both in the arrangement of vocabularies, notes, &c., and also in the

gradation of matter. 4. The "Essentials of Grammar" and the "Notes on Syn-tax "

give, in about 90 pages, a very useful and conveniently arranged summary of

all that the ordinary pupil needs to know. 5. The brief synopsis of English

Grammar gives an opportunity (much needed) to review the fundamentals of Eng-lish Grammar, and compare and contrast them with those of Latin Grammar.

I find no other book that combines these advantages.

NATHAN THOMPSON, A.M., Principal Lawrence Academy, Groton, Mass.

It is altogether the best Latin book for beginners with which I am acquainted.

Professor H. W. JOHNSTON, Illinois College, Jacksonville, Illinois. It seems

to me superior to any book of the kind hitherto published, and I regard the Essen-

tials of Latin Grammar as the best statement possible of what a boy must learn in

his first year.

Professor JOHN L. COOPER, Vanderbilt Preparatory School, Nashville, Term.

With reference to the book, I can speak only in the highest terms. Indeed, I do

not think that there has ever been issued an Elementary Latin Exercise Book that

can compare with it in any respect. I say this advisedhr

,as I have examined

almost all issued in this country, and the most prominent English ones ; and, with-

out hesitation, I pronounce Mr. Comstock's the best book of its kind published.

Professor H ^. MISSIMEE, High School, Erie, Pa. It is very easy to see

that Comstock's i'iist Latin Book is the work of a thorough teacher, who has had

actual experience in the class-room 'vith the difficulties which beginners in Latin

usually meet. Its classification and methods are thorough and complete. The

language is so clear, so simple, and school- like, that the dullest pupil, if he read

carefullj-, should understand without further explanation. Mr. Comstock has hit

the nail on the head. He knows just what and just how much grammar is needed

for good, clean work. We have had Leighton and Jones, both good, but we

like Comstock more, oecause it is better.

Professor R. F. PEXNELL, Head-Master Buffalo Latin School, Buffalo,

y.Y. I have examined with care Comstock's First Lessons in Latin. The book

shows the hand of a practical teacher, who understands the difficulties which are

constantly encountered bv the beginner in Latin. I consider it the best book yet

published on the subject, and shall at once use it in the Buffalo Latin School.

Professor E. S. SHUSIWAY, Rutgers College, New Brunswick, N. J. I know

not when I have seen such a combination of thoroughness and practical common-

sense in matter with taste in outer dress. I take pleasure in using it myself, and in

recommending it to teachers.

Page 174: Moss - A First Greek Reader

Comstock's First Latin Book.

Professor R. NUTTIXG, D.D., Blackburn University, Illinois. Having taken a

large class of beginners through Comstock's First Latin Book, I am happy to report

that I find it not only satisfactory, but admirable, as a class-room manual. Its

chief points of excellence, as they occur to me, are :

First. Its brief review of English Grammar, which I found more serviceable

to the entire class than I had supposed possible.

Second. The judicious order in which the syntactical peculiarities of the lan-

guage are introduced, and the lucid explanations which accompany them.

Third. The frequent and timely recurrence of examples compelling review

of principles and forms previously introduced.

In all these respects and in others peculiar to the work (as, for instance, the

condensed appendix of forms) I consider it preferable to any other work of the kind

with which I am acquainted.

Professor A. .STEPHEN-SOX, Upper Iowa University, Fayette, Iowa. After

testing Comstock's First Latin Book in my class this year, I am happy to say that I

deem it beyond comparison. It is the most complete book for beginners that I have

ever seen in any language. Difficulties which, to previous classes, seemed almost

insurmountable have, by my class this year, been easily overcome. The notes are

wonderfully clear and concise, and in every respect it proves itself so excellent a

manual that I cannot do better than continue its use.

Professor JOHN W. HESTON, Pennsylvania State College. I have to-day

(March, 1885) just finished taking my clnss through Comstock's First Latin Book,

and wish to say that I consider it the best preparatory book I have ever used.

After studying it for six months, my class this year reads Caesar with more facility

and better success than my previous classes have ever done, after they had spent

a whole year on preparatory lessons. To me the great charm of the book lies in

the simplicity of its arrangement, and the clearness and conciseness with which

even the most difficult matters, like conditional sentences, are explained.

Professor GEORGE T. ETTINGKR, M.A., Muhlenberg College, Allentown, Pa.

I find it excellent in every respect. The Review of English Grammar is a new and

excellent idea. I like the simplicity of statement which pervades the entire book.

The object seems to be to instruct the student, not to spread the author's knowledgeof philology. The boy who studies it at all faithfully must be well prepared for his

higher course in Latin.

Professor EDWIN POST, De Pauw University, Greencastle, Ind. It has all the

distinctive characteristics of the best introductory books, and some that many of

them lack. The notes are wonderfully fresh, interesting, and clear; and all its fea-

tures combine to make it a first-rate book, binding, typography, arrangement and

development of topics, and clearness and accuracy of presentation.

Page 175: Moss - A First Greek Reader

John Allyn, Publisher, 30, Franklin Street, Boston.

Mr. I. N. CARLETON, Bradford, Mass. Comstock's First Latin Book seems

clearly to be a work of superior merit. An examination of its well-filled pagesconvinced me that it was the best work for me to use with classes starting in Latin,and the result has fully justified my choice.

THOMAS D. SUFFICE, A.M., Head-Master Barcourt Place School, Gambler,Ohio. After a careful examination and comparison of Comstock's First Latin

Book with other books under consideration, I decided to use it with my classes, andwish to say that the book has given perfect satisfaction. I am delighted to find

between the covers of a single book exactly what I think classes beginning Latin

require.

Mr. I. B. BIIKCESS, Rogers School, Newport, R. I. It is accurate, practical,

well arranged, and clear in statement. I have seen nothing so complete as this

manual for the first year's study of Latin.

Professor H. W. JOHNSTON, Jacksonville, III. I have used Comstock's Latin

Lessons with a class in Whipple Academy this year, and have found it in all

respects the best manual, for the use of beginners, that I have tried. The class is

reading Ca-sar more satisfactorily than any previous one under my instruction. I

heartily commend the method of the work, and believe the author has accom-

plished all he has claimed for it in his preface.

Mr. J. H. PARSONS, Central Institute, PittfJleU, Me. I have used Com-

stock's First Latin Book during the present school year, and I take pleasure in

saying that it is by far the best book for beginners that I have ever used.

Professor A. M. MATTISON, Baldwin University, Berea, Ohio. I have been

using Comstock's Latin Book this year, and am well pleased with it. I do not

know of any better book for beginners.

Professor E. ALEXANDER, University of Tennessee, Knoxville. Comstock's

Latin Book is in use in our preparatory department, and is perfectly satisfactory.

A better text-book is not often seen.

O. D. ROBINSON, Master High School, Albany, N. Y. With its general plan

and arrangement I am much pleased, and many of its features seem to me of superior

excellence. Among them I should mention the Review of English Grammar, so

advantageous for a beginner; the condensed form of the essentials of Latin Gram-

mar ; the close conformity in the phraseology to the text of Caesar; the regular

progression of its lessons towards the one important end of reading Ca?sar; the

admirable treatment of the indirect discourse ; the chapter added entire from

the first Book of C.Tsar; and the references and explanations, so helpful and

suggestive to the beginner in dealing with idioms. In short, I have every

reason to expect the very best results from the use of Mr. Comstock's book in the

class-room.

BENNETT'S LATIN BOOKS.

BY GEORGE L. BENNETT, M.A.,

Head Master of the High School, Plymouth, Eng., formerly Assistant Master

at Rugby School.

I. Easy Latin Stories for Beginners. With Vocabulary and

Notes. 16mo. 70 cts.

The aim of this book is to supply easy stories illustrating the elementary

principles of the Simple and Compound Sentence. It is intended to be used

either as a First Reader, introductory to Caesar, or for READING AT SIGHT,

for both of which purposes it is admirably adapted. The stories are various

and amusing, and it is hoped the notes will be found careful and judicious.

II. First Latin TVriter. Comprising Accidence, the easier Rules

of Syntax, illustrated by copious examples and Progressive Exer

cises in Elementary Latin Prose, with Vocabularies. 16mo. 90 cts.

" The book is a perfect model of what a Latin Writer should be, and is so

graduated that from the beginning of a boy's classical course it will serve

him throughout as a text-book for Latin Prose Composition."

III. First Latin Exercises. Containing all the Rules, Exercises,and Vocabularies of the FIEST LATIN WRITER, but omitting the

Accidence. 16mo. 70 cts.

IV. Second Latin Writer. Containing Hints on Writing Latin

Prose, with graduated continuous Exercises. 16mo. 90 cts.

Intended for those who have already mastered the elementary rules oi

Latin Prose, this book contains hints on the difference between English and

Latin in idiom and in style, some notes on the commoner difficulties, and a

table of differences of idiom. The Three Hundred Exercises are fresh and

interesting, and give ample room for selection.

BENNETT'S LATIN BOOKS, Continued.

One or more of the above books are NOW IN USE in Phillips-

Exeter Academy ; Phillips-Andover Academy ; St. Paul's School,

Academy ; Adams Academy, Quincy, Mass.; Williston Seminary,

Easthampton ; Harvard College ; Amherst College ; Boston Univer-

sity ;Indiana University ; and many other institutions of similar

standing.

From Principal A. C. PERKINS, Exeter Academy.

" We take Bennett's '

First Latin Writer' as THE BEST MANUAL OP LATINCOMPOSITION for the first two years of our course. The '

Easy Latin Sto-

ries'

by the same author is excellently fitted for pupils when they are begin-

ning to read Latin."

From Dr. H. T. FULLER, St. Johnsbury Academy.

" We have used Bennett's'

First Latin Writer 'for the last two years,

and find it EMINENTLY SATISFACTORY. Instead of giving detached sentences

to illustrate special grammatical principles, like most books of the sort, it

takes the pupil over a well-graded series of exercises to the writing of con-

nected discourse. It involves a knowledge of all the principles of Grammarand Latin Idioms, and, by a skilful selection of review work, obliges the

pupil to keep what he has once acquired. Its breadth of vocabulary is com-mendable in that it is not restricted to the words of any single author."

From The N. E. Journal of Education

" In the ' Latin Writers'

the editor has not sought by a special and limited

vocabulary to assist the pupil in reading one particular author, but has

rather endeavored, by a copious vocabulary and gradual but frequent use of

all the rules of Syntax, to give the pupil an excellent foundation for a sound

and comprehensive knowledge of Latin Prose Composition. The exercises,

too, are interesting in themselves, and take up the different idiomatic pecul-

iarities in such an easy and natural way. that the pupil almost unconsciously

masters them, without having them glaringly thrust upon him in little

detached sentences, which, when mixed up in a narrative, he fails of course

to recognize. We cordially recommend these books to the attention of all

classical teachers."

PROFESSOR PENNELL'S TEXT-BOOKS.

Ancient Greece, from the Earliest Times down to 146 B.C. ByR. F. PENNELL, Professor of Latin in Phillips-Exeter Academy.With Maps and Plans. 16mo. 130 pages. 60 cents.

Rome, from the Earliest Times down to 476 A.D. 16mo. 206

pages. 60 cents.

These books are compiled respectively from the works of Curtius and

Rawlinson, and from Mommsen and Niebuhr. They contain amply sufficient

matter to prepare a pupil for any of our colleges. All minor details are,

however, omitted, thus avoiding a confused mass of matter so perplexing to

every beginner. Important events, names, and dates are printed in heavytype, strongly impressing them upon the student's memory.

Professor GEORGE R. GEAR, Marietta College, Ohio. I regard Professor

PennelPs "Ancient Greece" and "Rome" as capital compendium?, preserving

admirably, not merely the dry bones, but the juicy meat of larger works.

Professor O. HOWES, Madison University, Hamilton, N. Y. It is an excellent

summary of Roman history, a difficult task well performed.

Rev. MARTIN E. CADY, Poultney, Vt. It is by far the best compendium of

Roman history that I have seen for classes in academies.

Professor W. M. JEFFERIS, Delaware College. It is a most judicious epitome

of Greek history, containing just those salient points about which all the minor

events naturally group themselves. Teachers and pupils will rejoice to be free

from Smith's maze of petty names and events.

A. P. PEABODY, D.D., Harvard University. I know of no other compend of

Roman Geography and History so well fitted for students in the early stages of a

classical education. In addition to its worth as a school book, it is of no little value

as a reference book for the leading names, dates, and facts of Roman history.

The Latin Subjunctive. A Manual for Preparatory Schools.

By Professor R. F. PEXNELL. 16mo. Sewed. 66 pages. 25 cents.

Professor W. L. THRELKELD, Kentucky University, Lexington, Ky. It is the

best elementary manual of the Latin Subjunctive that can be placed in the hands

of a beginner.

T. B. MACKEY, Gottverneur, N. Y. I believe it to be the best work on the

subject for preparatory schools. The hand of the experienced teacher is discernible

throughout. The classification of conditional sentences is especially to be com-

mended.

FRENCH TEXT BOOKa

JIHARDENAL'S FRENCH SERIES.FIRST FRENCH COURSE, or Rules and Exercises for

Beginners. By C. A. CHARDENAL. 16mo, 220 pages. 60 cents.

SECOND FRENCH COURSE, or French Syntax and Reader.

16mo, 250 pages. 75 cents.

FRENCH EXERCISES FOR ADVANCED PUPILS, containingRules of French Syntax, Exercises on Rules and Idioms, and a

Dictionary of nearly Four Thousand Idiom: itical Verbs, Sentences,

Phrases, and Proverbs. 16mo, 332 pages. $1.00.

These books have been carefully graded to meet the wants alike of the begin-

ner and of the advanced pupil. Taken together, they furnish a complete course of

French grammar, with exercises for translation into French and English. Thefirst two volumes contain, in addition, a French Reader, with complete vocabularies ;

and the last book contains also a long list of French idioms, arranged in sections,

with exercises for translation and retranslation on each section.

I have examined very carefully the book of Chardenal you had the kindness u>

send me. I shall most certainly use it in some of my classes, and introduce it nextyear at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Professor J. Levy, Boston.

Monsieur Chardenal's system of teaching French, unlike that of some modern

professors, is based upon a sound and thorough comprehension of the rules of the

language. He does not profess to teach French in a fortnight, or, may be, in aweek ; but tells his pupils at the outset that the knowledge of French, like any other

knowledge worth acquiring, can only be got at by hard and persevering labor,extended over a considerable space of time. We cordially recommend his volumes

London Spectator.

They are certainly the best books for the teaching of French I have ever seen,and I have no hesitation in making them the text-books here. Professor M. B,

Anderson, Butler University, Indiana.

Le recueil d'exercices public1

Je puis vous dire, en toute since'rite', que vous avez fait un travail boa ot utile.

Le recueil d'expressions idiomatiques est excellent et ferait a lui seul le succe's devotre livre. Professor Ch. Cassal, LL.D., University College, London.

Les regies sent si breves et si claires, les themes si bien gradue"s, et les idiot-

NEW BOOKS.

Moss's First Greek Reader. With Introduction, Notes, and

Vocabulary. By Professor CHARLES M. Moss, Wesleyan Univer-

sity, Illinois. 16mo. 70 cents.

It is the aim of the author to furnish a Greek book for beginners which

shall be simple and interesting, and at the same time contain a large numberof such words, phrases, and idioms as are of frequent occurrence in Attic

Greek. There has for some time been a demand for such a book, to pre-

cede the Anabasis, which is of uneven difficulty, and which is quite apt,

when read slowly by a beginner, to grow very tedious.

The book contains no disconnected sentences. It consists of a series

of carefully graduated exercises for translation, beginning with the simplest

stories, and ending with extracts from Xenophon, Herodotus, and Lucian,

which have been changed and adapted to the knowledge of the beginner.

The text is preceded by valuable hints on translation, and followed by notes

and a complete vocabulary.

It is believed that the time spent in reading this book, before taking up

any Greek author for consecutive study, will be more than saved in the

subsequent rapid progress of the pupil.

Lucian. Short Extracts. With Introduction and Notes by Pro-

fessor CHARLES R. WILLIAMS, Lake Forest University. 16mo.

180 pages. 80 cents.

Containing The Dream, Timon, and Seventeen Dialogues.

Professor J. E. GOODRICH, University of Vermont. These dialogues of

Lucian are just the thing for rapid reading or for reading at sight. Lucian is so

alert, so keen, and withal so modern in feeling and temper, that the student is driven

to read on and on, just to see how the witty debate will end. I am glad to see that

Professor Williams has furnished an edition which will fully meet the demands of

the class-room.

Professor B. PERRIN, Adelbert College, Ohio. The book Is very well edited,

and admirably gotten up, as are all of your recent publications. It fills a gap, cer-

tainly, in the list of serviceable text-books, and I hope to put it to a practical test

before long.
