Excerpt from Myths of Old Greece: In Story and Song At the same time, care has been taken not to burden the pupils. The book is distinctively a reader. It demands no committing to memory, and there is very little to be carried on from story to story. Unessential names and incidents, though necessary in a. Compendium, are here omitted, and it is thought that the stories will require little more mental labor than that of the mere reading.
