 PREFACE. 
 
 THESE papers have been compiled as a companion 
 volume to the French Latin and German Examination 
 Papers in the same series. They are intended for the 
 use of those students who have passed through the 
 elementary stages of grammar and scholarship, 
 they are carefully graduated, and they touch on 
 most of the points with which a not advanced 
 scholar may fairly be supposed to be acquainted. 
 I hope that their uso may serve to relieve the 
 tediousness of constant grammar -repetition, and to 
 make the student acquainted with the various 
 idiomatic phrases in which a language really lives. 
 
 I am glad to know that the previous books in 
 this series have inspired the pupils who use them 
 with some interest in the dry bones of grammar. 
 Variety is the soul of teaching, and I have tried, 
 by giving questions on elementary philology, anti- 
 quities and literature, to carry the student's mind
 
 vi Preface. 
 
 beyond the Dative Plural of Substantives and 
 the parts of the Irregular Verbs. At the same time, 
 I hope I have not neglected the necessary points of 
 Accidence. 
 
 These papers are intended to form part of the 
 ordinary class work, and may be used with or 
 without preparation, viva voce or as a written exam- 
 ination. Many of the questions have been set at 
 the Universities, Military, Public Schools and Local 
 Examinations, and many are drawn from various well- 
 known works on Greek Accidence and Syntax.

 FIRST LATIN LESSONS. 
 
 It is desirable at the early age at which boys now begin the study 
 of Latin, before even the elements of grammar are grasped, that the 
 first book should be of the simplest possible character. This con- 
 sideration has mainly influenced the author in preparing this little 
 book, and as it teaches the elements of English as well as of Latin 
 Grammar, it may be placed in the hands of a very young child. 
 
 "The book is very easy and well suited to little boys." -Journal 
 of Education. 
 
 "This will be found a useful book, for it carries out the injunc- 
 tion, so necessary for successful teaching, 'line upon line, precept 
 upon precept.'" Spectator.

 MISCELLANEOUS LATIN EXERCISES 
 
 ON 
 
 COMMON RULES AND IDIOMS. 
 
 This volume is designed to supply miscellaneous practice in those 
 rules and idioms with which boys are supposed to be familiar. 
 Each exercise consists of ten miscellaneous sentences, and the 
 exercises are carefully graduated. The book may be used side by 
 side with the manuals in regular use. It will probably be found 
 very useful by pupils preparing for Public Schools, Local, Army, 
 and minor University examinations.

 LATIN VOCABULARIES 
 
 FOR REPETITION : 
 
 ARRANGED ACCORDING TO SUBJECTS. 
 
 In this book an attempt has been made to remedy that scantiness 
 of vocabulary which characterizes most boys. The words are 
 arranged according to subjects in vocabularies of twelve words 
 each, and if the matter of this little book of eighty-nine pages is 
 committed to memory, the pupil will have a good stock of words on 
 every subject. The idea has received the sanction of many eminent 
 authorities. 
 
 "This little book will be found very valuable by tlio.se studying 
 Latin, and especially by those preparing for scholarship exams, at 
 the Public Schools." Practical Teacher. 
 
 "A most ingenious idea, and quite worthy of a trial." The Head 
 Master of Eton. 
 
 "A book likely to prove most useful. I have been all through it 
 with care, and can testify to its accuracy." The Head Master of 
 Charterhouse.

 GREEK TESTAMENT SELECTIONS. 
 
 FOR THE USE OF SCHOOLS. 
 
 WITH MAP, INTRODUCTION, NOTES, AND 
 VOCABULARY. 
 
 This small volume contains a selection of passages, each sufficient 
 for a lesson, from the Gospels, forming :\ life of Christ. In schools 
 where only a limited time can be given to the study of the Greek 
 Testament, an opportunity is thus supplied for reading some of the 
 most characteristic and interesting passages. 
 
 "When the first edition of this useful book was published, we 
 ventured to predict that it would be highly appreciated and widely 
 used. Such has been the case. A new edition has been called for, 
 and a much enlarged and improved edition has been issued. "-

 There is a difficulty in this passage which we 
 can only briefly allude to and explain. Quir- 
 inus was not governor of Syria till A.D. 6, ten 
 years after the birth of our Lord. St. Luke 
 has therefore been charged with a grave 
 error in assigning the enrolment to Quirinus. 
 The governor of Syria at this time was Sen- 
 tius Saturninus. Several explanations have 
 been offered, two of which are reasonable : 
 (1) the enrolment was begun under Satur- 
 ninus and completed under Quirinus ; (2) 
 Quirinus was governor twice : first, at the 
 present date, B.C. 4; secondly, in A.D. 6.

 Mr. Stedman says quite truly that 'the papers are graduated in

 These Papers have been compiled to furnish practice for those

 Universities. A large number of the questions are original, a larger 
 number taken from papers actually set. The first fifty papers are, 
 on the whole, suitable for boys preparing for Public School Scholar- 
 ships ; the remainder for Candidates for the College Scholarships.
