Excerpt from Latin Prose Composition, Adapted for the Leaving Certificate and University Preliminary Examinations, Vol. 1This book has been entirely rewritten. I have been so often asked by former pupils, schoolmasters, and others, to make it complete in itself for teaching purposes, by adding a Syntax, together with the various notes and hints with which I have been accustomed to supplement my own use of it, that I at last consented, though I confess, had I foreseen how much time and labour would be involved in a work apparently so elementary, I might have hesitated to undertake it.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
