A Practical Introduction to Greek Prose Composition, Vol. 1 (Classic Reprint)

The plan of this Introduction requires some explanation. I ts object is to enable the student, as soon as he can decline and conjugate with tolerable facility, to translate simple sentences after given examples and with given words ;the principles trusted to being (principally) those of imitation and very frequent repetition. It is at once a Syntax, a Vocabulary, and an Exercise-book. One object has been steadily kept in view, that of making the general construction of sentences of more importance than the mere government of cases, which is nearly all that most Exercise-books pretend to teaeh. I beg to except Mr. Kenrick s Exercises, which, however, in my opinion should be used after some work like the present.
