Excerpt from Three Months' Preparation for Reading Xenophon: Adapted to Be Used in Connection With Hadley and Allen's, and Goodwin's Grammar IT is common to spend nearly all of the first year's study of Greek upon the elements of the language in a. Book of lessons. So far as may be consistent with thoroughness in the rudiments, many desire to abridge that time - partly to begin the sooner in the reading which the colleges require, partly for the interest and the sense of progress, which the pupil finds greater in the pages of a classic than in the hash of a drill book. What has been successfully attempted for Latin pupils in the Six Weeks' Preparation for Reading Caesar, is here essayed for beginners in Greek.
