Excerpt from Easy Latin Prose This book has been drawn up for the use of those who are commencing the translation of consecutive pieces of prose after having had some practice in rendering English into Latin in the form of sentences. All the extracts have been translated from Latin authors. It is hoped that this will suggest to the pupil the form and the phrase with which he has become familiar through his reading. In order to attain to this end the pieces chosen have been ren dered in as literal a manner as is consistent with the structure of the English language. A few omissions and some slight adaptations have occasionally been found necessary. It is hoped that this plan will ensure that the fair copy at any rate will be Latin as it was actually written. The number of extracts, which are progressive in difficulty, will allow of selection in cases where the pupils happen to be reading the work from which any piece has been taken. A latin-english Dictionary might be con sulted for the construction and exact meaning of the Words given in the notes, if they are not familiar. No other aid should be required.
