Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Graece Reddenda: Or Miscellaneous Exercises for Practice in Greek Prose Composition
This collection is a reprint, much enlarged and entirely re arranged, from a previously published work bearing the same title. It is composed very much upon the same lines as my La/z'ne which has been now for some time in use; and being intended solely for practice, not for instruction, it does not aim at competing with any existing manuals of Greek Prose Composition. The sentences in the first two Parts are designedly miscellaneous, and have been framed to illustrate all the most important constructions, Without rules or references: they may be done on paper or viva wow, and either with or without previous preparation on the part of the pupil.
The First Part consists Of exercises on the Simple Sentence and the Accidence of Grammar, and the first ten sections may be rendered nearly word for word into Greek by aid of the footnotes appended. The Second Part is on the Compound Sentence, and here, as well as in the later exercises of Part I, idiomatic phrases are introduced. The Third Part is designed as an introduction to continuous Greek Prose. The easier extracts, placed at the beginning of the part, may be tried.
