Excerpt from A Copious and Critical English-Latin Lexicon: Founded on the German-Latin Dictionary of Dr. Charles Ernest Georges
Tm; present work will be found to supply a desideratum that has long been felt by the classical student. The preface of the English editors will show the various sources whence they have culled their materials; while an examination of the volume itself will convince any one how successfully they have accomplish' the object which they proposed to themselves in preparing it. We have had, in fact, no work before this, on the same subject, in the English language, at all deserving of being compared with the present one, and it is to be hoped that the wretched compilations which have hitherto been used will be now completely dis carded. No teacher, indeed, can retain them after this, who is conscientious in his vocation, and sincere in his efforts for the improvement of his pupils. It seems unnecessary, at the present day, to say any thing in favor of frequent practice in Greek and Latin composition. No one can be an accurate scholar without it. Whether a work like the present one is likely to be a useful aid in pursuing such a practice, the following remarks of Lipsius will satisfactorily decide Lectz'o non mfia't, imo nee felicissz'ma memoria; sed opus est excerptis quibuadam et notis remm verbommque singularium, ques imitemur. Qua: excerpts memorial bns libellz's, tanquam maria, contineri velz'm, made sermonis illw apes per tempus ct ad mm promantur. - Epist. Institut, 0. 101.
