MACMILLAN'S

SHORTER LATIN COURSE

BEING AN ABRIDGMENT OF MACMILLAN'S
LATIN COURSE-FIRST PART

BY

A. M. COOK, M.A.

ASSISTANT MASTER IN ST. PAUL'S SCHOOL

EXTRACT FROM PREFACE

THIS book is an abridgment of the Latin Course, First Part. In that work an attempt was made to make the first steps of a beginner in Latin as easy as possible. The advance was made very gradual, the vocabulary was kept within the smallest possible limits, and care was taken that repeated changes should be rung on these few words by an abundance of exercises. In many schools, however, where the principle of this book, which a reviewer has termed aptly enough 'modified Prendergastianism,' was approved, it was found impossible, owing to the limited time that could be given to Latin, to work through so large a number of exercises. To meet the requirements of these schools, and at the suggestion of several eminent teachers, the present Shorter Course has been prepared. It differs from the original edition (which will still remain on sale) in the following points: (1) The exercises have been reduced by, about one half, the Latin into English exercises having been especially curtailed. (2) Though the same subjects are treated, the subject of the gender of nouns of the third declension has been dealt with in a more summa etry way. (3) All the words, whether used in the exercises or in the pieces of translation, are to be found in the dictionaries at the end of the bool pieces of translation are left practically unaltered.
