Abstract: en_US The title-page adds For the use of grammar schools. This is as thoroughgoing a pony as I have seen! I thought Locke was destroying Latin by doing an interlinear translation. This book goes a step further and adds a word-by-word interspersed translation. The first lines thus read this way: Materiam the matter quam which Aesopus Aesop reperit found auctor (as) author, hanc this ego I polivi have polished senariis versibus in verses of six (Iambic feet). The Latin is in standard print and the English in italics. I guess that this book may be a help the next time I get stuck in construing Phaedrus! It was certainly a boon to schoolboys in 1847. There are twelve pages at the end of the book of advertisements for similar helps.
