LEvERETTs LATIN LEXICON,

ENLARGED AND IMPROVED, compiled chiefly from
the Magnum Totius Lanitntis Lexicon at Facciolad
and Forceln and the German works of Scheer and Lue
nemann, embracing, also, the classical distinctions of
words, and the Psychological Index from Freunds Lexi
con.
The present edition of this standard and vorite Latin
Lexicon has been much improved g the transfer to its
columns of the classical distinctions of Latin words
given in the Lexicon of DR.. VIM. Frcund, Of Germany,
and translated by Riddle The classical degree Of each
word is indicated by figure; for example, word ,otosa
figure is fully classical and Ciceronian uith the figures
l. 2 and 5, words classical only in the first
ond, &c. degrees and this distinction the student per-
ceives at glance The chronological Index also from
reund Lexicon has been incorporated into the present
edition of Leverett and will be found valuable acqus
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
ing these catalogues found that the value and inn
portance of the additional words found in Levere far
knowledge of the Latin language concerned, very
far exceeds that Of those found in Riddles Freund. The

given to it all similar works. render its recommended
