Excerpt from An Assyrian Manual: For the Use of Beginners in the Study of the Assyrian Language

The texts have not been divided into sentences and para graphs as fully as might have been done. The Assyrian, it must be remembered, indicates but rarely such divisions.

The selection of cuneiform texts, besides the original of the Egyptian Campaign, had special reference to the intrinsic inter est of the passages chosen. It is believed that these passages, excepting a few difficult words, will be within the reach of those who have mastered the syllabic signs (pp. Xiii - xvi) and some pages of the transliterated texts.
