2. 2. 57. rĕvortimini. The reference to rēclusit should be Capt. 4. 4. 10. Add A8. 2. 2. 112:

Íllest ipsus: iám ego recurro húc: tu hunc intereá tene, where, if we recognise this archaic lengthening, there will be no occasion to alter a letter.

2. 2. 177. ad mortem dedit, 'brought me to death's door.' Cf. As. 3. 2. 28, Ubi saepe ad languorem tua duritia dederis octo Validos lictores. Ibid. 2. 4. 20, Jussin in splendorem dari bullas?

2. 2. 202. quo ita ut, 'in such sort as to make me unchaste.'

2. 2. 204. ēs. It is best to write umbra es, etc., not umbra 's, as the long quantity indicates, and this is now generally done. Cf. As. 3. 1. 8, satis dicacula es amatrix. 3. 2. 1. durare: cf. the pun in Asin. 5. 2. 57. ART. Non queo durare, PAR. Si non didicisti fullonicam non miran. dumst.

4. 3. 14. certumst, intro rumpam in aedis. Two friends ask may not rumpam be subjunctive. No: compare Merc. 2.4.4:

Certumst, ibo ad medicum, atque ibi me toxico morti dabo. For other instances of the idiom, see Aul. 4. 6. 10, 15. stabile est should have been mentioned along with the other formulae, meaning the same as certum est, 1. I. 111, cf. Bacch. 3. 4. 25.

THIS SERIES FALLS INTO TWO CLASSES

(1) First Reading Books for Beginners, provided not only with Introductions and Notes, but with Vocabularies, and in some cases with Exercises based upon the Text.

(2) Stepping-stones to the study of particular authors, intended for more advanced students who are beginning to read such authors as Terence, Plato, the Attic Dramatists, and the harder parts of Cicero, Horace, Virgil, and Thucydides.

These are provided with Introductions and Notes, but no Vocabulary. The Publishers have been led to provide the more strictly Elementary Books with Vocabularies by the representations of many teachers, who hold that beginners do not understand the use of a Dictionary, and of others who, in the case of middle-class schools where the cost of books is a serious consideration, advocate the Vocabulary system on grounds of economy. It is hoped that the two parts of the Series, fitting into one another, may together fulfil all the requirements of Elementary and Preparatory Schools, and the Lower Forms of Public Schools. b2
