Excerpt from Latin Classics in English Is the merciless line in which Mr. Lowell, in his Cathedral, pillories him for the contempt of mankind. We must not close this rapid and summary survey of Latin literature without remarking that it was proper of the Roman genius to produce a copious literature about literature, in the form of grammatical, rhetorical, and critical treatises, which, however, we are compelled, though they include such works Of imperishable value as Quintilian's, to pass with this mere note of their existence.
