Excerpt from Three Months' Preparation for Reading Xenophon: Adapted to Be Used in Connection With Hadley and Allen's and Goodwin's Grammar Some parts of the exercises have been marked as optional. Other portions may be omitted at the dis cretion of the teacher, according to the needs of the pupil. Exercises from English into Greek have been omitted in the latter part of the book. But it will be of use to extemporize a few every day from the material of the lesson, and to continue the practice in connection with the reading of Xenophon. After beginning Xenophon, instead of a strict reading in course, it is often better to defer the more difficult portions, such as the third and ninth chapters of the first book of the Anabasis, until more facility has been acquired in the easier chapters of that book, and perhaps of the next. Those who are interested in learning Greek mainly in order to read the New Testament, will find these lessons adapted to their desire for a preparation that is expeditious as well as thorough.
