TNNLARGED AND IMPROVED, compiled chiefly from
Il the Magnum Totius Latinatis Lexicon at Faccioau
and Forceni and the German works of Scheer and Lue
nemann, embracing, also, the classical distinctions of
words, and the chronological Index from Freunds Lexi
The present edition of this standard and avorte Latin
Lexicon has been much improved by the transfer to its
columns of the classical distinctions of Latin WORDS
given in the Lexicon of Dr. VIM Freund, of Germany,
and translated by Riddle. The classical degree Of each
word is indicated by figure; for example, word toOt
figure is fully classical and Ciceroan tc the figures
L. 2, and B. words classical only in the first,
ond, &C., degrees; and this distinction the student
ceves Mt a glance The Psychological Index, also from
Freund Lexicon has been incorporated into the present
edition of Leveret and will be found valuable acquisi
ton. While transferring these notes and marks, cata-
ogues carefully kept of the words found in each
Lexicon which not found in the other On compar

porance of the additional words found in Leyere far

country and the preference which has been universally
given to all similar works. render its recommended

respectfully invited being still worthy than its
predecessors of the distinguished favor which the work
