Excerpt from Exercises in Latin Versification
Special attention has been paid to the rules and hints for each kind of verse that the pupil may not be hindered in advancing from one species to another.
The rules of prosody are as complete as possible, embracing all the rules and exceptions found in the Latin editions.
The vocabulary will be found to contain every word used in the paraphrases of each exercise. This will help the student to avoid the useless loss of time deplored by many in the crowded curriculum of our classical course.
