IL the Magnum Totius Latintatis Lexicon at Faccolat
Forcen and the German works of scheler and Lue
nemann, embracing ALSO the classical distinctions of
words, and the Psychological Index from Freunds Lex
con.
The present edition of this standard and avorto 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 oioh
figure is fuy classical and Cic7o1dn 1Oit the figures
l, 2, and 3, words classical only in the first,
ond, &c, degrees: and this distinction the student per-
ceives glance The Psychological Index also from
Freunds Lexicon has been incorporated into the
edition of Leverett and will be found vaua bic acqus
ton. While transferring these notes and marks, cata-
logues carefully kept of the words found in each
Lexicon which not found in the other On conpar
ing these catalogues it found that the value and inn
porance of the additional words found in Leyerett far
knowledge of the Latin language is concerned very
far exceeds that Of those found in Riddles Freund The
extensive Of Leverets Lexicon in all parts Of the
country and the preference which has been universally
given to il all similar works. render its recommends
ton supeTfuous; but attention to this edition is
respectfully invited being still worthy than its
predecessors of the distinguished favor which the work
has hitherto received.
