Preface
Septimus
R. L. Chambers and K. D. RobinsonThis is the Junior book of the series of Latin Readers of which Caesariana and Orbis Terrarum have already been published. It is intended to be used during the first year of any Latin Course, and, with a good form, might even be started during the first term.
The text is constructed in a definite order of difficulty based, though not rigidly, on The First Two Years of Latin (Christophers). Used in conjunction with some regular grammar and syntax book, the Reader should be sufficient to cover about three terms' work. A deliberate attempt has been made, in constructing the Latin, to give sufficient practice in those points of importance most commonly occurring at this stage in grammar, usage or vocabulary.
