. RUDIMENTA LATINA COMPRISING ACCIDENCE, AND EXERCISES OF A VERY ELEMENTARY CHARACTER FOR THE USE OF BEGINNERS BY JOHN BARROW ALLEN, M.A. LATE SCHOLAR OF NEW COLLEGE, OXFORD PREFACE. THIS rudimentary volume of Accidence and Exercises has been written at the request of a considerable number of Masters of large Schools, to whom even the 'First Latin Exercise Book' did not seem sufficiently elementary, or rather did not supply a sufficient quantity of the very elementary examples required to keep children employed during the first year or so of their Latin training. Personally, I should have preferred to exclude from an Exercise Book all examples not containing a Verb. I am aware, however, that an author writing a book by request is under an obligation to comply with the wishes of his friends, instead of airing his own particular fancies; and I shall be very glad, therefore, if Exercises 1-16 are found of use. CHELTENHAM: March, 1885. JOHN BARROW ALLEN. |
