The authors have endeavoured to present before students as comprehensive a view of the subject as possible. Intending as they have done to make the subject accessible, at least in the earlier portion, to all classes of students, they have endeavoured to explain fully all the processes which are most useful in dealing with ordinary theorems and problems, thus directing the student to the selection of methods which are best adapted to the exigencies of each problem. In the more difficult portions of the subject, they have considered themselves to be addressing a higher class of students; there they have tried to lay a good foundation on which to build, if any reader should wish to pursue the science beyond the limits to which the work extends. Mythology for A Brief Sketch of the Fables of the Ancients, prepared to be rendered into Latin Verse for Schools. New By F. C. HODGSON, B.D., Late Provost of Eton College. Edition, revised by F. C.

A list of books useful to the student of Cicero, a copious Argument, and an Index to the introduction and notes, complete the book.

This work is intended to supply the pupil with an easy Construing-book, which may, at the same time, be made the vehicle for instructing him in the rules of grammar and principles of composition.

Passages out of the best Latin Poets are gradually built up into their perfect shape. The few words altered, or inserted as the passages go on, are printed in Italics. It is hoped by this plan that the learner, whilst acquiring the rudiments of language, may store his mind with good poetry and a good vocabulary. By C. J. VAUGHAN, D.D. Head Master of Harrow School. St. Paul's Epistle to the Romans. The Greek Text with English Notes. Second Edition. Crown 8vo. cloth. (1861). 58.
