Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Selections From The Poems Of Ovid: With Notes And Vocabulary
IN the preparation of a new edition of these Selec tions from the Poems of Ovid, the work has undergone a careful revision. A chief result of the revision has been the insertion of words in the Vocabulary, which were omitted in the first edition. Corrections, too, have been made in the Vocabulary, and also in the text and the notes. I hope, therefore, that the book Will now be found to be a better one, and more worthy of use. I take this occasion to make my acknowledgments to the many teachers who have expressed a favorable opin ion of the work, and have adopted it as a text-book. I have especially to express my sense of obligation to my friends who have pointed out defects in the work, and have called my attention to words omitted in the Vocabu lary; particularly am I indebted for Such service to Professor O. N. Dougherty, Superintendent of Public Schools in Peoria, Illinois, and to my former pupils, Messrs. William T. Peck, of the Providence High School, Enoch Perrine, of the Peddie Institute, Hightstown. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
