Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Tacitus: The Agricola and Germania
A translation of the Agricola appeared anonymously in 1885 from the press of Messrs. Kegan Paul Co. I had not seen it when I made my version, but I read it afterwards with much pleasure on account of its very spirited style, and I have taken the liberty of borrowing from it one phrase, in the springtime Of her rare promise, where Tacitus is speaking of his betrothal to Agricola's daughter.
