Excerpt from Milton's Paradise Lost: Books I and II; With Introduction, Notes, and Diagrams

This little book, the outgrowth of teaching, is designed to meet the wants of students. Among the points of difference between it and similar editions, it includes some of the best results of recent investigation, and it omits certain passages that jar on the reverence due to youth.' With very slight exceptions the text is Masson's.* The notes may seem at first sight too numerous; but many of them are intended for teachers, and examination will show that they are calculated to stimulate rather than Supersede thought.

The introductory matter should be read carefully before beginning the critical study.
