Book Description
Excerpt from Latin Proverbs and Quotations: With Translations and Parallel Passages and a Copious English Index Then it struck me that the practical use of such a work would be greatly enhanced by the introduction of English Proverbs and Quotations of kindred meaning to illustrate the Latin. Lastly, the want of a good Index in the works which came under my notice seemed a very serious deficiency. With the view of supplying, in some degree, the require ments above referred to, I have ventured to publish the present compilation.
