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 ety 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. The pieces of translation are left practically unaltered.

PRESS OPINIONS Saturday Review-"The book is a good one. The exercises are plentiful, and the words which they contain are such as will be useful to learners when they pass on to higher work." Literary World-"The young learner who cannot 'get on with' his Latin under so simple and gently-progressive a course as Mr. Cook has here laid down had better be allowed to give it up altogether. The teacher's work has been greatly simplified and lessened by the omission of any advanced rules or complex examples. The book seems to us admirably suited for girls' schools as well as for boys', and it is marvellously well printed and got up for the very low price charged." Glasgow Herald-"This manual is admirably adapted to the Latin requirements of the Scotch Code for the first year. All the ground is covered, and the exercises for translation from and into Latin are numerous and judiciously arranged. The plan of the book is one by which the pupil is made to take stock of his knowledge at every step, and security is thus got for the foundation in Latin grammar being soundly laid. The book is likely to be. come a favourite. The book is admirably simple and practical." ... We say in English "I strike him," not "I strike he," and "He strikes me," not "He strikes I;" for in these sentences the persons who strike are put in the nominative, and the persons whom they strike in the accusative. But very few words in English, as it is spoken and written nowadays,1 have an accusative case different from the nominative. We say, for instance, "The stone struck me" and "I struck the stone," and the word 1 English used to be more like Latin in this respect; for instance, “tunge” (now “tongue") used to have an accusative "tungan." |
