THE RET. H. MUSGRAVE. WILKINS'S NEW GREEK
DELECTUS,

Just published, in 12m0., price 4s. cloth,
APROGRESSIVE GREEK DELECTUS.-
By the Rev..ll. MUSGRAVE WILKINS, M.A., Fellow of
Merton College, Oxford, Author of "Notes for Latin Lyrics"
in use in Harrow, Westminster, and Kugby Schoold.

The plan of this work, sug-
gested by the Rev. Dr. Tem-
ple, Head Master of Rugby
School, and since approved by
many of the first scholastic
authorities, is to illustrate
every stage of Bishop Word-
worth's Greek Accidence on
the principle that a delectus
should be a grammar teaching
by example. Accordingly, in
lieu of the exegetical notes,
too commonly construing and
parsing for the pupil in simi-
lar works,constant reference's
London : Longman, Greei

made to Yirordsworth's Acci-
dence and Syntax, the scope
and practical bearing of which
are thus inculcated on the
pupil's mind as he proceeds.
Idiomatic constructions only
are explained in the notes ;
ordinary words and phrases
being given in a Lexicon ap-
pended, in which it has been
aimed to present all the addi-
tional information which the
youthful student of Greek can
require, so as to make this de-
lectus complete in itself.

ON

" The aim of the author is to present a common-sense view
of the Causes, Nature, Consequences, and Treatment of this
Disease, as also to free these questions from the Professional
Fallacies, the Popular Debisions, and the exaggerations of
Quackery by which they have hitherto been surrounded, to the
destruction of the health and happiness of thousands. These
objects are discussed in a common-sense and highly. practical
manner."—Medical Circular.
