Publisher's Synopsis

Excerpt from The Spirit and the Muse, Containing Original Hymns and Other Poems: With Translations From the Odes of Horace

With respect to my translations from the Odes of Horace, I shall claim for them the merit of being fairly literal, and at the same time spirited. The Latin text, which for the convenience of the reader I have had printed alongside of the English version, I have taken from an edition of Horace by C. W. King and H. A. J. Munro, Fellows of Trinity College, Cambridge.
