Excerpt from Ahn's Third Latin BookTjie present volume is the third of a Latin series which has been undertaken With the view of facilitating the study of the Latin language. In the preparation of this Third Latin Book the author's main object has been to provide a full course in Syntax and Prose Composition. The points which have received particular attention, and in stating which great pains has been taken, are to describe clearly and accurately, in language as plain as possible, the actual uses of syntactical forms, with abundance of illustration both in Latin and English, and, withal, to direct the pupil's attention first to that which most needs to be learned. Unencumbered with burden some detail. To enable the teacher to do this etficiently a careful distinction of the contents of the book by the use of various styles of type has been made throughout. Accordingly, the practice has been followed to present in the largest type principles so vitally im portant, that, in general outline, they should be grasped by every scholar, before the separate points (which are printed in smaller type) are taken up and discussed in detail. In using this book, the pupil should be required to commit to memory the Special Voca bulary preceding each exercise. This is of the first importance since words once given are not repeated in subsequent vocabularies. It should, however, be borne in mind that any word whose meaning cannot be recalled may be looked up in the General Vocabularies at the end of the book.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
