Excerpt from Adam's Latin Grammar; Simplified, by Means of an Introduction: Designed to Facilitate the Study of Latin Grammar, by Spreading Before the Student, in the Compass of a Few Pages, What Is Most Essentially Necessary to Be Remembered The Grammar of alexander adam, LL. D. Rector of the High School in Edin burgh, first published in 1772, is too well known, and too generally approved, to need, at the present day, either advertisement or encomium. In 17 99, it was adopted by the University at Cambridge, (mass.) and publickly recommended to be used by those intended for that Seminary, as a book singularly calculated for the improvement of students in the Latin Language. It has passed thro h numerous editions, both in Europe and in this country; and is, unquestionably, t e most complete Grammar of the Latin tongue, especially in its Syntax, that has ever yet been published. The great variety of notes and Observations annexed to the Rules, the frequent and com prehensive lists of exceptions, and the numerous explications Of anomalous and intri cate constructions, discover an intimate acquaintance with the Latin classics, and give a clue to the resolution of the most difficult passages.
