Translate into English: Ein reicher Jüngling zu Rom hattte krank gelegen an einem schweren Uebel; endlich genx3 er und ward gesund. Da ging er zum erstenmale hinaus in den Garten, und war wie neugeboren und voll Freude und lobete Gott mit lauter Stimme. Und er wandte sein Antlig gen Himmel und Sprach: du Allgenugsamer, könnte ein Mensch dir etwas vergelten, wie gern wollte ich alle meine Habe geben! Solches hörte Hermas, genannt der Hite, und sprach zu dem reichen Singling: Son oben fommt sie gute Babe, babiu vermagi bu nights 3u senden. Komm, folge mir! Der Jüngling folgte dem frommen Greise und sie kamen in eine dunkle Hutte, daselbst war citel Jammer und Elend Denn der Vater lag frank und die Mutter weinete; die Kinder aber waren nackend und schrieen nach Brod Ta eischraf der Jüngling Hermas aber sprach: Siehe hier einen Altar Da sin tem Opfer Siche hier des Herrn Brüder und Stellvertreter. 2a that der reiche Jüngling seine Hand über sie auf, und gab ihnen renhausen zurück, begab sich, ohne auf der Diener Einwendungen zu achten, daß der Herr sich bereits zur Ruhe gelegt habe, in das Schlafgemach des Kurfürsten, knieete vor dessen Bette nieder und leistete ihm auf übliche Weise die Huldigung. Noch in der nämlichen Nacht berief der Kurfürst feinen Staatsrath und rüstete sich zur Abreise. Der Abel strömte nach Herrenhausen, um den Landesherrn noch ein Mal zu begrüßen. Am. 11. September verließ dieser mit dem Kurprinzen das Schloß und fuhr nicht ohne Rührung durch das Gedränge seiner Unterthanen, die sich um ihn versammelt hatten.

THE PRONOUNS. PRONOUNS express the relation of an object to the speaker, inasmuch as they present either the speaker himself as the object (the first person), the person addressed (the second person), or the person spoken of (the third person); as I (first person), the teacher, give you (second person) the book (third person). Pronouns may be divided into five classes, namely, the personal, the demonstrative, the relative, the indefinite, and the interrogative. 4. με (εμε), me Ν.Α. νω, we two où, of himself. συ, thou où, of him oi, to himself σφω, you two Dual. Η The personal pronouns in the nominative are employed only, then, when a certain emphasis falls on them, especially in contrasts. In order to show in what instances they should be used in the following Exercises, the words where they are required are printed in italics. EXERCISES.-ENGLISH-GREEK. We write, but you play. We two write, but you tuo play. I honour you, o ye gods! O boy, hear us! God always sees you. If thou injurest us, thou differest not from enemies. You rejoice with us. I willingly hear you, Ο parents. Father loves thee and me. Mother loves you both. It is my duty (it is of me) to watch the house, for I am the guardian of the house. It is thy duty, Ο boy, to learn earnestly. The lyre affords pleasure to thee and me. You two have (εστε, with dat.) a very faithful friend. δ. The refective pronouns, εμαυτου, of myself; σεαυτου, of thyself; ¿avrov, of himself G. εμαυτού, ης Singular. G. ήμων αυτών αις 4. ήμας αυτούς, ύμας αυτούς, ας ας ἑαυτου (αύτου), ης ἑαυτῷ (αύτῳ), η ἑαυτόν (αύτον), ην, ο ἑαυτων οι αύτων, οι σφων αυτων ἑαυτοις, αις, or αύτ τοις, αις, οι σφισιν αυτοις, αις ἑαυτους, ας, α, or αύτους, ας, a, or σφας αυτους, ας, σφεα αυτα. e. The Reciprocal Pronouns. While the reflective pronouns throw the act back on the subject, the reciprocals denote the interchange of the act, or the influence between two persons or two sets of persons; G.D, νων, of (to) us two σφων, of (to) σφωιν, of (to) them | thus αλληλων means of one another ; αλληλοις, to one another Plural. G. αλληλων D. αλληλοις, αις, οις 1. αλληλους, ας, α Dual. αλληλοιν, αιν, οιν Τα αγαθός εστι μου ὁ πατήρ. Παντες στεργουσι τους σφετερους πατέρας οι τους ἑαυτῶν πατέρας" or τους πατέρας τους εαυτων.

Ο φίλος μου απιστός εστιν. Ὁ σος νους Κακουργος, ον, (g.) evil doing; το σον σωμα μεταχειρίζεται. Ο μεν εμος παις σπουδαιος εστιν, ὁ δε σος μεθημων. VOCABULARY, as a noun, an evil doer. Ωφέλιμος, o, useful. Movev, only. Ι Περιφέρω, I carry round; EXERCISES.-GREEK-ENGLISH. Ὁ βιος πολλα λυπηρα εν ἑαυτω (οι άυτω) φερει. Γιγνωσκε σεαυτον (σαυτον). Βουλου αρεσκειν πασι, μη σαυτῳ μονον. σοφος εν ἑαυτω περιφέρει την ουσίαν. Φιλων επαινον μαλλον η σαυτου λεγε. Αρετη καθ' ἑαυτην (per se, in itself) εστι καλη. Οἱ πλεονεκται ἑαυτους μεν πλουτίζουσιν, αλλους δε βλαπτουσιν. Ουχ οἱ ακράτεις τοις μεν αλλοις βλαβεροι, ἑαυτοῖς (οι σφισιν αυτοις) δε ωφελιμοι εισιν, αλλα κακουργοι μεν των αλλων, ἑαυτων (οι σφων αυτων) δε πολυ κακουργότεροι. ἡμιν αυτοις ήδιστα χαριζόμεθα. Αφθονοι Ουρανίδαι και (even) εν αλλήλοις εισιν. Οἱ κακοι αλληλους βλαπτουσιν. ENGLISH-GREEK. Ημεις μεν The wise carry their (the) property about in themselves. The avaricious man enriches himself, but injures others. You gratify yourselves. The intemperate is not hurtful to others, but useful to himself; but he is an evil-doer of others, and a much greater evil-doer of himself. Good children love one another. B. ADJECTIVE PERSONAL PRONOUNS, OR POSSESSIVE PRONOUNO Certain pronouns partake of the nature of an adjective as well as a pronoun. For instance my, in "my book," qualifies the noun book, and might, without serious error, be denominated an adjective; but since my also represents a noun, a noun of the first person, or the pronoun I which holds its place, my may also be termed a pronoun. My consequently is both an adjective and a pronoun, or an adjective pronoun; inasmuch, too, as my, thy, his, &c., signify possession, they may be also designated possessive pronouns. The possessive pronouns Instead of εμος, the Attios employed the genitive εμαυτου, ης, ου in a reflective meaning, and αύτου, ης, ου, in the signi fication of the personal pronoun of the third person; e. g. τυπτει τον ἑαυτου υίον, he strikes the son of himself, that is, he strikes his son, or Iris own son ; you may also say τύπτει τον υἱον τον ἑαυτου; also τυπτει αυτου τον υίον, οι again τον υίον αὐτοῦ. The possessive pronoun is used in Greek only for the sake of emphasis. When no contrast or other marked force is intended the pronoun is omitted, and its place is supplied by the article, as ἡ μητηρ στεργει την θυγατερα, literally, the mother loves the daughter, that is, the mother loves her daughter. The person of the verb, and the import of the proposition show what pronoun you should supply in English, Instead of the adjective personal pronouns εμος, σος, &c., the Greeks use with the same meaning the genitive of the substantive personal pronoun, as εμου, σου, also εμαυτού, εμαυτου, &c. VOCABULARY. Μεθήμων, οι, neglectful. Μεταχειριζομαι, I handle, eon- and the particle δε. EXERCISES.-GREEK-ENGLISH. Like ούτος decline τοσουτος, τοσαύτη, τοσουτο, so great; τοιούτος, τοιαυτη, τοιουτο, such; τηλικουτος, τηλικούτη, τηλεκουτο, so old, so great; remark, however, that the neuter sin Ο εμος πατηρ αγαθός εστιν' οι ὁ πατηρ μου αγαθος εστιν' or I gular, besides the form in o, has a form in ov Ν.Α. τοσουτω G.D. τοσουτοιν τοσαυτα τοσαυταιν τοσουτο (ν) τοσούτου τοσουτο (ν) τοσαυτα τοσουτω τοσουτοιν The pronoun avros, n, o, signifies either he himself (ipse, ipsa, ipsum), or performs the office of the oblique cases of the personal pronoun, third person, singular and plural, as him, her, it, them. In union with the article, thus forming & auros, ǹ avτη, тo auro, it signifies the same, in Latin idem, eadem, ĭdem. The article by crasis mingles with the pronoun, making one word, thus ò avros — auros, and in the feminine and neuter aurą, rauro, commonly raúrov; but as the crasis αύτη, ταύτο, ταύτον; does not extend throughout, I give the pronoun in full. δ αυτος contracted into αύτος. Singular. αυτός Plural. ταὐτῷ ταυτῳ A. τον αυτον την αυτήν ταύτον τους αυτους, &c. ve-dú-to la vo-stro pén-na. A-vé-te vói ve-dú-to il nô-stro píc-co-lo fra-têl-lo ? II vô-stro lí-bro è buô-no.

ENGLISH-ITALIAN, Hypocrisy is a homage which vice renders to virtue. Nature only requires that which is necessary. Reason demands the useful, self-love looks for the agreeable, passion requires the superfluous. The large trees give more shadow thân fruits. God is the father of men and the preserver of the creatures. The stars of the heaven, the birds of the air, the fish of the sea, the plants, the animals, are works of the Lord. The scope of the creation is infinite, the intellect of man weak. The wis dom of God is like the light of heaven. The order, the beauty, and the pleasantness of the world, are evident proofs of the generally the cause of the misfortune of men. The outbursts existence of a supreme being. The excess of the passions is of anger, of envy, and of príde, powerfully disturb the equilibrium of the humours, the system of the nerves, and frequently at length injure the mechanism of the body. The brings to man the greatest damage; it weakens his powers, lust of intemperance and incontinence is the enemy which deprives him of riches, and injures his most precious good, the health.

Not the slightest precipitate results from the addition of nitrate of silver to a solution of pure arsenious acid in pure water; neither to a solution of arsenious acid in alkali, e. g., (liquor arsenicalis) provided the alkali be neutralised by an acid (say acetic) previously to the addition of nitrate of silver. If this treatment be not exactly followed, a precipitate in solution of certain strength may occur; nevertheless, it is different from the pure yellow precipitate resulting from the ammonia-nitrate of silver. T. G. L. is evidently a minute observer of phenomena. Previous neutralisation would have been taken for granted by a chemist. A. C. H.: A common gas flame smokes all apparatus which it touches: the spirit lamp flame yields no smoke; hence the advantage in the latter. Nevertheless, the mixed gas flame, as it is called, yields no smoke. We shall describe the method of employing this source of heat hereafter.
