Excerpt from Cothurnulus: Three Short Latin Historical Plays for the Use of Beginners

The little plays now published stand somewhere between simplified texts and original composition. They make no claim to literary merit; such a claim could not easily be reconciled with their educational aim. But it is hoped that they retain in a very unpretending shape something of the' interest of the great themes which they handle, and that they may give beginners a real, though necessarily a restricted, View of the great impulses which contributed to make the history of Rome in its different epochs. The substance is drawn as directly as possible from the Latin authors.
