everything requisite for accurate preparation on the part of the student
and a correct understanding of the author.
The publishers take the liberty of adding, that all of the above works
have been republished in England and Scotland. Some of them, indeed,
have already passed through four editions. They are republished under
the superintendence of that eminent scholar, James Boyd, LL.D., one of
the masters in the High School in Edinburgh, who says, “In superintending
the publication, I have not felt myself warranted to make any alteration on the
text, as given by Professor Anthon, nor to mutilate, by the slightest omission, his
admirable Explanatory Notes.”
A more detailed view of the plan of the series, &c., will be found
on the next page.
