Author Description

Excerpt from Elegiac Poems of Ovid, Vol. 2 Direct translation has been almost entirely avoided, and help in grammar confined to a brief reference to the Revised Latin Primer. Occasionally a longer note has seemed advisable to emphasize the importance of the construction in question or to illustrate an interesting principle of language. My thanks are due to the readers of the Clarendon Press, who have enabled me to remove several inac curacies from the text and notes.
