PREFACE.
NOTE.
In the first two editions of this work a slight deviation was made, in the
arrangement of the Cases of Nouns, from the order usually followed. The
change was determined on after mature deliberation, and after a highly satis-
factory trial with a large class but at the urgent request of many Teachers
;
the Editor has been induced to revert in the present issue to the old estab-
lished order. Those, however, who prefer the new arrangement will find
the Nouns so printed at p. 223. This is not the place to enter into the
more subtile arguments, logical and philological, which may be advanced in
favour of the alteration ; for a few of these the student of maturer years
is referred to the preface of Professor Madvig's Latin Grammar, Wood's
translation, second edition. The considerations which will weigli most
with Teachers in adopting the change are those of convenience and mne-
monic utility. It may therefore be laid down, generally, that the more the
forms of Cases are reduced in number, or the more that like Cases are
grouped together, even though not reduced in number, the simpler does
the system of Declension become to the learner. Thus the forms of
Neuter Nouns are acquired with much less difficulty, and retained with
much more ease, than those of Masculines and Feminines, from the fact
that they have really only three Cases, fi'^X-ov, fjiijkov, /liiKt^: for it
mnst be remembered that "a Case is not the word used in a certain con-
Btrnctlon, but the word used in a certain form by virtue of the constmo-
tion ;" and that, consequently, " there are no more Cases in a language
PREFACE. IZ
than there are distinct forms of Cases." Again, in the Dual, in all
Declensions, the advantage of this arrangement is so obvious that it has
long since been adopted by common consent Bat if we fullow this
gronping principle farther, we shall also find it of great service in the
Declension of Masculines and Feminines. Thns, in the First Declension,
it b an invariable rule that the Vocative and Acctiatztive /oQow the Nomir
all the irregularities are set side by side, and are thus more easily
save much labour both to himself and his pupils. Thus, in words accented
like avX^ and <tkuL, the acuted Cases (Nom., Voc, and Accus.) come
together, and the circumflexed (Gen. and Dat.) together ; and in those
like 7\a>rra, 5ov\oi, H7J\oi>, and ivdfxitroi, the Cases similarly accented
come together, (with, of course, the slight exception in the plural.) So
in the large classes of Notms represented by
and &tip (uc, fiifrrip
syncopated Nouns and those with dissyllabic Genitives and Datives),
the Cases (Nom., Voc, and Accus. of all Numbers) which retain the
accent on the radical syllable follow each other and those, on the ;
immediate sequence.

familiar to the student. The Verb is the great puzzle to boys, and
it is therefore of the utmost consequence that it be learned very
gradually, and impressed very surely. The Teacher will find the
best results follow, if, in declining verbs, the pupils are made to
append an accusative or other appropriate case to each form ; as,

In reading a Greek author, the problem which a young student is most fre-
quently called upon to solve, in regard to nouns, i^ "To find the nominative from an
oblique case," and not rice versa; and it is hoped that the arrangement of nouns
adopted In the text will render this a comparatively easy task.
X The dative plural ought to be, in full, Ksiiiatv-ui. ; but the letters t, S, B, v w^ere
not allowed to stand before s, and thus it becomes Aeijxwu This principle must ba
carefully itoted, as examples of it are constantly recurring.

* A syllable is called long, either when itivcncel is naturally long (ij, u, a, <tc.), or when
tvco consonant* (not being a mule and a liquid) follow a vowel naturally short. Thus, in
the datire plural, Xiovr-ai, the second syllable, -ovro--, is long, since o (though short
in itself) is followed by three consonants; but as neither t nor v can stand
before ?, both of them are thrown out, and the word is reduced to Aeo<rt. In this
form, however, the syllable (-orro--), formerly long, has been reduced to which -oo--,
is short ; and, to compensate for this, the o changed into Its kindred diphthong -ow,
is
so that Ae'ocrc becomes A«ov<ru Similarly, nouns whose stem ends in -«t make their
dative plural in -<i<Tt; and those in -avr in -a<Ti^ Tlie same change is seen in

CONTRACTION.
1. When two vowels (belonging to different
syllables) meet ip the same word, they are usually
(in the Attic dialect) combined either into a diph-
thong or a long vowel. This is called Contraction.
The meeting of two vowels is called a concursus.

from 5 to 100 they are all indeclinable. The
Ordinals, however, are regular adjectives of three

ness." t)((i), signifying " to have one's self," x.e., " to be," when joined
with a participle, implies the continuance of the state indicated by the
participle ; so here the whole phrase means, " I continue now for a long
time in a state of non-sickness."

x"M'*'''') liut verbs signifying rest in aj'lace are
very often followed by a preposition denoting motion, with an accusa-
tive, the phrase thus suggesting the movement that preceded and led to
the state of rest. So here the preposition els, with tlie accusative, sug-
gests the sailing into the line of storm and vavayQv relates the result.

ffKeveos, genitive singular of cKeDos, neuter. This is what is called the
partitive geiiitive —
" clasping j?ar< o/the tackling." " Tackling" is pro-
perly expressed by the plural rd. ffKeit}, but the Greek of these dtrreia is not
the most correct or elegant. § Observe that the penult of dyKvpa is long,
while the corresponding syllable of ancdra is short. In later Greek, how-
ever, the penult was short, dyKvpa.
15. ffii diriOaves observe that the personal pronouns are expressed in

12. cdpov/jUvoJv Twv dXX&w, " the others being inclined to choose him ;"
or, " being on the point of choosing him."
13. Ko^Xfas, " some snails." Snails were considered rather a dainty
bj the ancients ; so much so that a Roman country seat was hardly com-
plete without its cochlearium, or " snai>-preserve."
14. Tdffas }]fiJpas, " during all days ;" i.e., " every day." Observe that
duration of time is put in the accusative.
15. rod dStKstp here again we find the article with the infinitive
:

dp^erai. § S.Tep, a neuter plural, has its verb, Ap^erai, in the singular.
16. ifiireffovcra, 2 aorist participle active of ij.i.rLvTCi>. § dXX'for iWd,
" well, but." 4XX4 often begins a clause having reference to something
not expressed, but uppermost in the mind of the speaker. Here the fly
ponders with itself, " I am going to die, certainly. WeU, toell! but it is
gome consolation that I have had a hearty meal, a satisfying draught,
and a comfortable bath." § pi^puKO, from pi^ptiicKU and viruKa, from ;

ancients were not faces, but tcJiole heads. § ^p shonld rather be r^v, or

" hia mother." § vvo\a^ov<ra, scil. riv \(rfO» so in the Scriptures, " He

by you?"
19. elvai Karixovra, &c.: "that there was {i.e., existed) another dog,
which possessed (literally, possessing) a piece of flesh ;" or, ftvai KaT^ovra
may be taken as equal to Karix'^uf. But the former is preferable.
§ i,ifxli, 2 aorist participle of a<f>lT)fu. %i Si KwreTxev, " and that, on
the other hand, which he held." S is the accusative singular neuter
of the relative pronoun Ss, rj, S, governed by KareTx^-
20. fK6ovTos, Sia<pdelpovTos: observe that the former is the aorist,
" when a stag had come ;" and the latter the present, —
" and was spoiling,"
i.e., was going to spoil. § ^(pTjcrep, " said, yes ;" i.e., i, the man. § avrdt
means the man, and airrov the horse.
21. ^paxiPTWv, 2 aorist passive of /S/>^w. § dipot is the accusative,
expressing duration of time, —
" during the sunmier ;" while upq, is the
dative, indicating a point, time when, or a space of time, in some part of
which an action takes place. § With x«M<2''oy ^PX"'') supply upau.
22. itoXXtji' bSov is in the accusative, expressing motion along or through-
out a space; just as action during, or throughout a certain time, is put in the

Dialogue II. Line 1. Tovrorl, " this here." The demonstrative < is

23. «j oi>S4, &c, " that I shall never cease ;" more literally, " how that I

other remarkable example of which will be found in Xen. Anab., I. 3. 6.
It is usually called the genitive abadUUe, the in being added to show that
the action implied by the participle does not really exist, bat is only thought
of or intended. But thb so-called genitice absolute (a term which is seJf-
eontradictory, and which has been adopted to get easily quit of a difficulty)
can always be referred to some recognised grammatical principle and some
general rule, and is very often used to express the time, or cause, or
manner. Here, then, we regard the participle in the genitive as the
cause of the state indicated by the verb -yiywaKcrt. We
would therefore
translate, " make up your mind to this, (or, come to this conclusion,)
because (i.e., for this reason, that) I shall never cease." Instead of this
genitive, we should have expected the infinitive with an accusative before
it. 26- ravra ovx C/Spts, "is not this insolence itself V^ ue., "is not

the translation of the phrase. 35. rpairiffdai, literally, "turn yourself;"

EUPHONY.
TuE concurrence of certain consonanta was ver7 offensive to a Greek
ear, and was therefore systematically avoided. The following are the
principal ruleswhich must be observed in affixing a termination beginning
with a consonant to a stem ending in a consonant :
L THE MUTES.
1. In a concursus of mutes, the second must he a lingual dental^
T, B, or ; i.e., a labial b
not followed by a palatal, nor a palatal by a
labial. [The preposition Ik, in compound words, forms the only excep-
tion to this rule.]
2. Cognate consonants come together; i.e., a light labial or palatal mast
precede a light lingual dental, an aspirate must precede an aspirate, and
an intermediate, an intermediate thus we cannot say yiypa-<f>-T-cu, but
:
cannot say hrel-d-d-rjv, but iirel-ff-d-rjy (from xel0-u) not ip€i-5-d-Tjpai, but
;
not pi^pex-ftai (from ^p^-w). Except a few words like dK/iij, dpaxp-v, &c.
7. The mutes t, S, 6, before fi, are changed into j; as, ir^Tr«<j--/Mn, not
rhreiff-fuii (from ireiOw). Except a few words like araOfids.
8. The mutes v, ^, <f>, before j, combine with i and form \j/ ; as, ti5-^-«
for Ti-TTff-tj).
13. 'J'he letter ;/, before a liquid, assimilates itself to it ; as, cruX-X^w,
for <TW-\4yo}.
14. Consonants are not doubled, excepts-, k, t, y, and the semi-vowels
X, /t, p, s, {it, k, and y very seldom.)
V,
THE ACCENTS.*
1. Tliere are three accent-marks in Greek :
N.B. —
The terminations -ot and -at (except in the optative mood),
and the Attic inflexions -ujs and -uv, are treated as short
syllables; as, dnavdai., iroXirai, dvOpunroi, 7r6Xews, dviiryewv.
G. When
the last syllable of a word is long, the acute cannot stand
farther back than the penult ; as, dvOpuvov.
7. The circumflex can stand on the penult only when the last syllable
IS short (see No. 4.) ; as, fivla [but fivld, nominative dual], yXurra [but
* It is only tlie leading principles of acccntimtion tl'.at are here given. For the
theory and more minute details, the advanced student Is referred to "The Laws of
Oreek Accentaatioo," by the&ev. U. J. Bryce, LL.D. SVilliams and Norgate: 1859.
APPENDIX. 155
(3.) If neither of the syllables have the acute, the contracted syl-
lable will not be aflFected; as, fidvT-ee-s, fidm-ei-i ; rifi-ao-
ft.ivri, Tifi-u-fievTj.
10. The accent remains throughout the oblique cases on the same
syllable on which it stands in the nominative, so long as the quantity of
the final syllable permits ; as, ai'^-i}, avK--^ ; /ScurtX-ei^, jSatrtX-^a ; iro/>-
div-os, irapdiv-ot; Xfifjuliv, XeipLuv-ot; iroifL-qv, iroifiAv-os\ alyeipos, atyeip-
ov, but aiyelpov.
11. Exceptions. — In the Third Declension, genitives and datives of
two syllables take the accent on the inflexion ; as, &:Qp, 0-qp-m,
but accusative &T)p-a, nominative plural
Orip-olf, 0T]p-uv, 6T]p-ffl ;
ACTIVE.
(1.) 1 aorist infinitive on penult, Xwr-«u,
2 aorist infinitive on final, \Lir-t1p.
2 aorist participle on final, XtTr-tii'.
Perfect infinitive on penult, \e\vK-iviu. : and 80 all infini
tives in -vai\ as, ridevai..
MIDDLE.
1*2.) 2 aorist imperative on final, as Xtx-oO.
2 aorist infinitive on penult, "Kkw-ivOau
(l-'S)
12
156 APPEISDIX.
PASSIVE.
(3.) Perfect infinitive on penult, \e\v-(r6ai.
Perfect participle on penult, XeXv-ii^vos.
All participles of the Third Declension, ending in s, take an acute
18.
on the final syllable ; as, \vOels (1 aorist passive), rideU (present active),
iiut the participle of 1 aorist active follows the rule as, jSouXeycras. ;
PROCLITIC&
19. Some
small words, o6, el, ws, iv, els [is], iK, 6, i], ol, al, throw
forward their accent on tlje word following, if connected in syntax ; an,
ENCLITICS.
20. Enclitics are small, unemphatic words, which throw back their
accent on the preceding word (if cimnected in meaning), so that the two
words form only one, as it were, in pronunciation ; as, k6/>7j tis, vo/ieTi
Tives, paaiXeiJS iffrt, So0\6s rit, ^ovv riva. Compare que, ne, &c., in
Latin; as, omneinque.
iarl -xpijCLfiQ., stones and bricks and beams of timher are use-
fvl [tilings).
THE ARTICLE.
2. The article was originally a demonstrative adjective pronoun, and
hence it is used to point distinctly to an object, to render it prominent,
and thus distinguish it from others, and oppose it to others.
(1 .) It points to what is known, or supposed to be well known as, ;
(5.) It has a distributive force ; as, toO fir]v6s, hy Vie month, — i.e., every
month.
(6) It distinguishes the subject of a sentence from the predicate ; as,
6 avyjp d.yad6s, the man is good; or, iyaObs 6 iirqp. But 6
d7o06s ojtJpwould simply mean, the good man.
(7.) It indicates what is customary or deserved; as, ?\a/3e ra va\rd, he
received the two spears usually given / ttjj' Siktjv, the deserved
punishment.
Ohs. 1. The article, with a participle, is equal to a relative clause;
as, 6 vpirruiv =
iKeivos is irpdrrei, Ac who docs. In this case it
retains its primary demonstrative power.
Ohs. 2. —
It is used with the infinitive mood (in all cases), thus
forming a kind of gerundival substantive; as, rd /cX^rretp,
stealing; toC KXhrTew, of stealing, of thefL
AGREEMENT.
8. —A verb agrees with subject number and person;
KcT.E. its in as,
tyCj ypdipu ; ffii ypd(peis ; ijfieU ypdipofiev.
Exception. — But a neuter plural subject usually takes the verb the in
singular rk rpix^h
; animals run.
as, ftDa Oie
If.B.— Since two singulars are equal a two singular subjectsto plural,
connected by a co-ordinative conjunction (xoi, &c.) have a verb
or adjective in the plural ; 6 reus xal i} Kbp-q ffo^l flai, theboy and
the girl are icise.
Exceptiotu —
But in a series of nominatives the verb often agrees with
the subject nearest it; as, (pCkei ae o irarrip koI ^ p^^VP ^"^ oi
d8e\<pol, your father loves you, and {so do) your mother and your
brothers.

used to express the subject of the sentence, or the
substantival predicate, as
is
shown in Art. 3 and 4 above.
6. The vocative is used in expressions of address, as in Latin; but
the nominative often takes the place of the vocative, even in address.
• T-AO sutjstantives are said to be ia appostiion whea one is appended to the other
U:> explain or limit it.
158 APPENDIX.
ACCUSATIVE.
7. Theaccusative case expresses the direct object of the action indicated
by a transitive verb. It answers to the questions, whom? what? to wluit
2>lace? during what time?
8. Rule. —Transitive verbs govern the accusative ; as, 6 vats ftlirrei
tV <T<pa'ipav, the boy throws the hall ; welOei. rbv Kpiri/jV, he persuades tJie
judge. [But many transitive verbs govern tlie gen. or dat.]
9. Any verb, whether it be transitive or intransitive, may govern in the
accusative a substantive of kindred signification ; as, tovtov rbv kIv^vvov
Kivdvveiicro}, shall incur this danger ; vixrov voaeiv, to he ill of a disease.
1
10. Manyverbs in Greek are followed by two accusatives, the one ex-
pressing the person, the other the thing. Such are verbs of concealing,
teaching, ashing, dividing, depriving, clothing, and many others.
11. An accusative is often put a.ite,T passive rcrJs, intransitive verbs,
and adjectives, to define them and limit their application. This is called
the accusative of reference or limitation ; as, d-Xyeiv roi/s Tr65a$, to be
pained in the feet: KaX6s ri ififiara, beautiful in the eyes; i.e., having
beautiful eyes : 2w»cpdT7;s rb 6vofj.a, Socrates by name.
12. The accusative is used to express duration of time and extent of
space; as, iriyre 7]fj,^pas l/u-eive, he remained (foT)f,ve days; dir^ei 5^(co
ffradlovs, it is distant ten stadia.
THE GENITIVE.
13. The primary meaning of the genitive is source or origin. Hence
it is employed The point of separation {from, aivayfrom) ;
to express (1.)
(2.) The cause, matei-ial, or occasion; (3.) The time at which, or j)i<^ce in
which an action originates or occurs. Hence it signifies,
(1.) The author or possessor ; as, b vibs rov Sfo^toiTOS, Xcnojihoii's
son ; T) /xdxaipa rov va&rov, tlie sailor''s cutlass. It thus answers
to the questions, whose? of whom? of what?
Obs. 1. Thus arises the genitive of material ; as, v6fuafjf.a dpryipov,
a coin of silver.
Obs. 2. eljj.1, like sum in Latin, followed by the genitive to
is
denote that something is the part, duty, or characteristic of ; as,
dvSpbs iariv dyaOov eO woieiv toi>s (plXovs, it is the part [or duty)
of a good man to benefit his fiends.
(2.) The tchole of which anything is a part (partitive genitive) ; as,
ffocpwraros irdvrup, the wisest of all ; (rraybves vSaros, drops of
water ; irov yijs eariv, where on earth is he ? ovk iyd) ro&rwr
elfd, I am not one of these ; Ix^is ri tuv xpvfJ-dTwv, you liave
soTne of the money.
(3.) T?w. part affected. Hence it is used with verbs which signify to
touch, take hold of share, obtain, &c. as, iirTcrai rov x"'w»'os,
;
I heard the voice. IJut iJKovffa ravra rov narpbi, I heard this
FROM my father. So verbs and verbal adjectives which signify
an affection of the mind are followed by a genitive as, tireipoi ;
THE DATIVE.
14. The dative case denotes,
(1.) The individual (person or thing) to whom anything is given or
communicated ; as, aimp elwev 6 Kvptot, the master said to him ;
ZiiKe^av dXXiJXotj, they conversed vrith one another.
(2.) The individual who is benefited or injured in any way ; as, if
PacriXeia vrrjpxe rtf Ki5p<^, tfie queen favoured Cyrus ; SiSuai
avT<^ iTTirov, he glees him a horse.
(3.) Belief in,or obedience to ; as, Ty yye/iSvi ivurreiitrafiev, we trusted
to the guide.
(4.) The cause why something is manner or circumstances
(done), the
in which it is (done), the instnment by which it is (done), and
the agent by whom it is (done) ; as, dyaXXovrai r-§ viK% they
are delighted at the victory i.e., because of the victory ; ^q.
UL IXFIXITIVE MOOD.
15. The infinitive mooda kind of verbal substantive, and is used
is
with or without the article to express the object or aim ; as, IKri^u
wvdjfftv, I hope to conquer, —
i.e., I hope-for victory.
16. It often serves as the subject of a verb ; as, ifii im
ri /tat^eCxif)
to kam is pleasant

" We
can speak favourably of this improved edition of a well-known
work. There is a valuable introduction on physical geography, and
throughout the book prominence is given to the natural features, cli-
mate, and productions of each country. One new feature, which we
think good, is the employment of our own country as a standard for
comparing the si^e, latitude, and distance of others." Athenaum.

DR. COLLIER'S
NEW HISTORIES OF THE BRITISH EMPIRE.
JUNIOR CLASS-BOOK.
HISTORY OP THE BRITISH EMPIRE. With Copious Questions.
By W. F. CoLLiEE, LL.D. 12mo, 208 pages, cloth. Price Is. 6d.
The Questions appended to this work will be found of great use, not
only for class-examination, but also as the headings for easy Exercises
in Composition. Every teacher is aware of the sxiggestive force upon
intelligent children of well arranged questions. They not only recall
the information received, but prompt its expression in a variety of
forms, which prove that the pupil has made it his own. It is suggested,
therefore, that —
especially in schools where the teacher has more than
—
one class to superintend the questions be used as Notanda, from
which to compose a short narrative of the events recorded in each
chapter or section.
