The following are the distinguishing features of the PAEALLBLGRAMMAR SERIES :— yt '7/

/

p /xI.—UNIFORMITY OF CLASSIFICATION AND TERMIN-

OLOGY.

The same grammatical phenomenon is classified alike and namedalike wherever found. Slightly different phenomena are described hy

slightly different but not inconsistent names. A pupil using these

Grammars will therefore not be distracted by discordant grammatical

views or puzzled by divergent formulse where a single formula wouldsufBce.

The order of the various Grammars being identical, mastery of one

involves mastery of the principles and methods of the others.

These important results are attained witJwut any revolution in

terminology. It has been found that the existing stock of names, if

used economically, is sufficient or very nearly sufficient.

Syntax is based on Analysis of Sentences, and the principle of

Comenius, "Per exempla," as distinct from "Per prsecepta," is

followed ; i. e. , rules are based upon a preceding set of selected

examples, from which they may be inductively inferred.

3.—UNIFORMITY OF SIZE AND TYPE.

All the Grammars are printed in three sizes of type—Small Pica,Long Primer, and Brevier—corresponding to three stages of learning.A line down the margin gives additional prominence to the elementarymatter. Great care has been bestowed upon making the pages aspictorial as possible, in order thereby to aid the local memory.

It is hoped that these volumes may fairly claim the title of a SERIESOF PARALLEL GRAMMARS. No labour has been spared in making themuniform, not merely externally, but also in principle and method.

PREFACE.

This Readee and "Weiter is intended as a First Course of

Latin. The chief points of Accidence to the end of the regular

verb (including capio and the Deponents, but excluding Genders

of Nouns and Principal Parts of Verbs that form the Perfect

and Supine irregularly) are taken up, not however in the order

of systematic grammar, but in the order of teaching. The verb

is brought in early, adjectives like duriis follow upon nouns of

the 1st and 2nd Declension; after Exercise 11 nouns, adjectives,

pronouns, and verbs march on abreast.

The head line of each reading lesson directs the pupil's

attention to the part of his Latin Grammar which he must

study in connection therewith, e.g. urbs, laudatus sum,Comparison of Adjectives : a few paradigms, such as

agricola sedulus—not ordinarily given together in gram-

mars—are added. It is hoped that the pupil will thus become

familiarised with the use of his grammar from the first, and

lay the foundation of that ' local memory ' which it is so

desirable to cultivate. Any Latin Grammar may be- used, but

references are given to the Latin Accidence of Professor

SoNNENSCHEiN, in the Parallel Grammar Series. Quantities

too are marked on the same principle as in that grammar,

i.e. on the principle of not ma/rhing natwrally short vowels at all.

It is hoped that the eye, no longer confused by a multiplicity of

signs, will thus be trained, and serve as a valuable auxiliary to

the ear. Full and carefully constructed Vocabularies (including

a considerable number of " Phrases ") and a General Index

(Latin and English) complete the book.

Irregularities in Accidence and all formal study of Syntax

are postponed. Mai Hreint qui trap emhrasse ; a few indispen-

sable rules of Syntax are given ; but for the most part Syntax

is taught by the method of Model Sentences

—

per exempla, as

Comenius said it should be.

vi PJB.EFAGM.

Great pains have been taken to make this book mterestvng

.

Continuous passages and stories have been introduced as early

and as often as possible, both in the English and the Latin

parts. It is astonishing how small an equipment of grammar

is necessary for translating a story, even one of considerable

length {e.g. Exercises 18—24). Quotations too from great

writers—English as well as Latin—have been introdiiced from

time to time ; some of the most noteworthy sayings in literature

present no grammatical difficulty, and may serve to ' set the

learner on thinking.' Even the disconnected sentences, which

ring the changes on the various inflected forms, are, it is hoped,

sometimes instructive, sometimes perhaps even amusing, never

absolutely dull or meaningless.

In the Latin part care has been taken to avoid words of

doubtful Latinity ; in the English part, to have some regard for

style, and to avoid the depressing jargon that still masquerades

as English in many an elementary book.

The English Exercises are modelled, more or less closely, on

the corresponding Latin Exercises : the writing of Latin thus

grows naturally out of the experience gained in reading ; reading,

writing, and grammar, go on side by side and illustrate one another.

I am indebted for much help in the Latin part to the Lateinische

Lesebiicher of Dr. Friedrich Holzweissig, Director of the Victoria

Gymnasium at Burg, and of Dr. Otto Eichter.

I should be most grateful to Teachers and others for any

corrections or suggestions.

parsimonia, et industria, et modestia Juliae. Parsimonia et

industria puellae bonum agricolam vaide delectant, Sed

magis delectat Marcum modestia filiae, nam puellig magnumest ornamentum modestia. Saepe exclamat Marcus libeiis suis

:

" Este laboriqsi et docti : estote modesti : nam si boni fueritis,

Deo can eritis." Puellae pulcbrae non sunt semper bonae.

Puellae bonae baudquaquam semper sunt pulchrae. Julia au-

tem et bona et pulcbra erat. Itaque filia boni agricolae n5n

solum Marco sed etiam universis vici incolis causa erat

The Farmer and the Sailor (contimoed).

Gains erat filius agricolae. Non solum laboriosus erat, sed

etiain doctus. Haudquaquam poetarum Romanorum et

Graec5rum imperitus erat. Vergilius, Horatius, Ovidius

puerum valde delectant, sed magnus Homerus puerum magis

delectat. Fabulas poetarum Graecorum Jiiliae narrat, nam

linguae Graecae puella n5n perita est. Itaque libri agricolae

liberis valde sunt jucundi. Nibilominus Gains est laboridsus

agricola. Pauci agricolae sunt docti;pauci sunt periti et

poetarum et agriculturae. Boni poetae baud raro sunt mali

agricolae. Gaius autem et doctus poeta et sedulus agricola

erat. Itaque Marco causa gaudii erant liberi, Hbri liberis.

The Farmer and the Sailor (continued).

Augustus est nauta strenuus, Augustus est fidus amicus

Marci agricolae. Agrippa est unicus nautae filius. Magna

pueri diUgentia Augustum delectat, Itaque nauta exclamat

:

"Fill, diligentia tua me valde delectat. Ecce praemium

diligentiae tiiae et industriae ! Feriae tib! erunt., Marcus,

unus ex amicis meis, nos ad se visendum invitat. Omniao

12 A FIMST LATIN READER AND WRITER,

imperitus es vitae rusticae. Vita rustica te delectabit."

Postridie ad agricolam visendum nauta et filius iter faciunt.

Magnum est gaudium amicorum, nam amicitia nautae et

agricolae est firma. Interea Gains et Julia Agrippae multa

monstrant. Hortum, porc5s, equos, catulos puero monstrant.

21,

The Faemer and the Sailor {continued).

Postridie Agrippa cum Marci filio ambulat. Gaius Agrippae

monstrat alta.s piros, malos ramosas, cerasos jucundas. P5madat amico. Postea in magnam silvam veniunt. Sunt in si.va

pini procerae, fagi altae, tiliae opacae ; sunt etiam ferae in

silva, nam silva est domicilium eervorum et aprorum. Est

in silva rivus. Ripae rivi sunt amoenae umbra pin5rum

altarum et platanorum opacarum. Turn pueri sub umbra

fagi altae sedent. Deinde Agrippa amicum suum interrogat

:

" Ferae-ne sunt in silva ? " Turn Gaius :" Olim silva erat

domicilium ursorum et luporum et aprorum; etiam hodie

silva plena est aprSrum." Subito magnum et ferum aprum

vident. Tum Gains magna gaudio exclamat :" Ecce aper

!

"

Haudquaquam gaudet Agrippa ; timet, sed nihil respondet.

22.

The Farmer and the Sailor {continued).

Mox tamen Gains aprum sagittis actitis vulnerat, namSagittarius est peritus. Sed aper nondum est mortuus : in

Gaium irruit et jam jam bellicosum poetam lacerat, sed sine

mora Agrippa gladio beluam necat, nam nautae filio audacia

nunquam defuit. Tum pueri tam gloriosa victoria gaudent.

Postea Marcus et Augustus cum Julia ad locum forte veniunt.

Vident aprum mortuum ; mox pueros vident, audiunt de

proelio et audaciam puerorum laudant.

migrat Gaius cum Agrippa et Augusto ad oppidum maritimum.

Gaius vitae maritimae omnind est imperitus. De violentia

undarum pelagi multa in libris poetarum legit, sed undas

pelagi nunquam vidit. Tandem ad altos scopul5s veniunt

et pelagus vident. Turn Agrippa exclamat, " Ecce navis !

Gaius novum monstrum diii aspicit. tandem "Papae ! " inquit,

" navis est aratrum pelagi."

The Farmer and the Sailor.

Mark, a hard-working and honest farmer, has two children,

Gaius and JuUa (say : There are to M., &c.). Julia's eyes

are black and beautiful. Beautiful also is the girl's modesty.

Julia greatly delights the farmer by (her) industry and thrift.

For industry, and thrift, and- modesty are great ornaments to

a girl. A beautiful girl is not always good ; and a good girl

is not always beautiful. But Julia is both beautiful and

good. Accordingly Julia delights not only the worthy farmer

but also all the inhabitants of the village.

19.

The Farmer and the Sailor (coniimisd).

Gaius is the farmer's son. He is not only skilled in agri-

culture but also in literature. The Roman poets greatly

delight the boy, but the Greek poets delight the boy more.

Often while he ploughs he recites the beautiful stories of

Homer. In the evening, too, he tells many a story (say :

many stories) to Julia, for the maiden is by-no-means skilled

in the Greek poets. The stories of the Greek poets please

the farmer also. And-so the books of Gaius delight not only

Mark's children but also Mark.

20.

The Farmer and the Sailor (continued).

Augustus, a vigorous and stalwart sailor, is a friend

of our (friend) Mark. The worthy sailor has an only son,

Agrippa (say.- There is to, &c.). The boy by (his) great

diligence is a cause of great joy to Augustus. Accordingly

56 A FIRST LATIN BEABER AND WRITER.

the sailor brings (his) son to visit the farmer. Great is the joy

of the friends, Mark and Augustus. Great also is the joy of

the children. Gains shows the boy his horse and his dogs

;

Julia also shows Agrippa many-things—the garden, the

fields, the pigs, the hens. Then Augustus exclaims :" A

country life entirely delights me."

21.

The Farmer and the SIilor (continued).

Next-day the boys take-a-walk together. Now they are in*

a big forest. Gaius shows (his) friend stately pines and lofty

beeches. There is in* the forest a river, pleasant with the shade

of thick plane-trees. Presently the boys sit down on* the bank

of the river, and Agrippa questions (his) friend about* bears and

wolves and wild-boars. Afar-off they see many boars. Pre-

sently one of* the boars sees the boys, and lo ! now he is

rushing against* the good and learned farmer.

22.

The Farmer and the Sailor {continued).

But the learned farmer is a skilful archer. He therefore

soon wounds the beast with a sharp arrow. Accordingly the

sharp arrow of the warlike poet is a cause of delay to the

wild-boar. Wild-beasts by-no-means love sharp arrows. Thebeast, however, is not-yet dead. Lo ! he is tearing the skilful

archer. Then Agrippa slays the boar with (his) sword ; for

bravery never fails (say: is wanting to) our sailor. Afterwards

the farmer and the sailor hear about* the boys' glorious victory,

and praise the bravery of (their) sons.

ENGLISH. 57

23.

The Faemer ajsid the Sailor {conclusion).

Next day Mark ploughs a field in-company-with* (his) son

and (his) servants. Agrippa for-a-long-time gazes-at the

plough, and the farmer, and the field. He-is-amazed, for he

is entirely unskilled in agriculture. At-length our sailor

cries :" By Hercules ! the plough is the ship of the fields."

Not long afterwards Gaius removes with* the sailor and the

sailor's son to* a sea-side town. Now, Gaius has often read

about* " lofty rocks," " violent waves," " the wide main." But

he has never seen the lofty rocks, the violent waves, the wide

main. Soon, however, the boys come to* the sea. By chance

a ship draws-near to* the land. Gaius for-a-long-time gazes-

at the strange prodigy and is-amazed. At-length he cries

:

" Wonderful ! the ship is great Neptune's plough." Nowour (friend) Gaius is a poet.

24.

1. Water will hollow-out even a hard rock. 2. My son, you

by bravery, but also by prudence and diligence." 4. Formerly

we were continually striving with* many nations of Europe.

5. Romans, you surpassed {say: were surpassing) all-other

nations in boldness. 6. Comrades, you formerly by your

bravery delivered {say : were delivering) (your) country from*

many evils ; will you now endure the injuries of your enemies ?

Comrades, you are now freeing your country from* a great

peril. 10. While I breathe I hope. 11. My friend, endure

Dialogue.

Charles. Why do you praise the farmer's life ? Your uncles

praise, and were continually praising, a town life. Fredericks I

shall soon be a farmer, for the advantages of a country life are

great. A country life will always please me ; but a town life

pleases my uncles : for they are altogether unskilled in the

pursuits of a country life. Why do you always praise a town

life ? G. I praise and shall always praise a town life. None-

the-less do I praise a country life. Neither a town life nor a

country life is always agreeable to me. ~ Fr. Shall we walk

to-day through* the fields ? We will look-at the tall poplars

and the shady beeches ; we will walk through* the pleasant

forest ; afterwards your grandfather's large gardens will

please us.

of the laws. 3. We shall always praise equity. 4. Innocence
