 Entered, according to Act of Congress, in the year 1885, by 
 
 JOHN B. KENDBICK, 
 in the Office of the Librarian of Congress, at Washington.

PKEFACE. 
 
 It is suggested that for use in the class-room 
 the Greek of the passage be read carefully and 
 aloud by the pupils twice before the teacher calls 
 for the translation. 
 
 Sometimes well-chosen remarks by the teacher 
 about the selection to be read, or about its author, 
 are of real benefit. 
 
 It is believed that the extracts are in them- 
 selves well worth reading, aside from the linguistic 
 purposes. 
 
 I think that the use of such passages brightens 
 
 and quicken's a class, gives variety and life to the 
 
 routine of hard work, and is a real help to the 
 
 student of Greek.
