1. An Introductory Course based on Ancient Authors. Barnes & Noble, New York, 1956Google Scholar.

2. In the same sentence, for Cicero's use of straightforward adjectives, an ablative of description is substituted, presumably because that usage is about to be reconsidered in the corresponding part of Grammar, Vocabulary and Exercises (p. 214).

3. All the doctoring is fully documented at the back of the book.

4. Devotees of computer assisted learning might like to know that it is hoped that such systems can be produced in the near future both for Reading Latin and for Learning Latin.
