Excerpt from A First Book in Latin: Containing Grammar, Exercises, and Vocabularies, on the Method of Constant Imitation and Repetition

We have found, from actual experiment in our classes, that the oxer cises to be rendered from English into Latin are within the capacity of any student of ordinary indus try who studies the book in order; and we do not know that this can be said of any book of the kind, of equal extent, in use among us.
