Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Syntax of the Moods and Tenses of the Greek Verb
Syntax of Professor Madvig at Copenhagen and in the Greek Grammar of Professor Sophocles at Harvard Univer sity. Something more than mere statement of facts has been attempted in the present work, although nothing has been further from my thoughts than a complete theoretical discussion of all the principles which govern the use of the moods. He who ventures far upon that sea is in great danger of being lost in the fog or stranded; for, while Comparative Philology has throw much and most welcome light on the early history of the Greek language, it has also made us more painfully aware of our ignorance, although it is a more enlightened ignorance than that of our predecessors.
