Excerpt from The Essentials of Latin Syntax: An Outline of the Ordinary Prose Constructions, Together With Exercises in Composition Based on Caesar and Livy
This book, which has grown out of recent experience in teach ing Latin composition both at Andover and at Princeton, attempts to present the essentials of Latin syntax arranged in a concise and orderly way.
I have tried to put the subject matter into as clear and simple a form as possible, giving with each construction named one English example with its Latin equivalent, and references to only three grammars.
