Observations On The Study Of The Latin And Greek Languages eBook

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. In explaining our mode of instruction in the Latin and Greek, I shall speak as if the whole business were carried on within these walls from the commencement; and I do this, not because I suppose that all plans are bad which differ from our own, nor that any faultless plan can be devised, but that those who are preparing pupils for this place may unite in making their instruction and ours part of one scheme. Again, I should not volunteer any suggestions for elementary education, if I did not know, both from direct communication and otherwise, that many teachers wish to possess a more complete development of what we attempt to do. They will thus at least know more precisely the kind and degree of knowledge that our pupils ought to come with, though they may in some respects differ from us on the mode of imparting this knowledge.
