An introduction to the making of Latin. Comprising after an easy, compendious method, the substance of the Latin syntax, with proper English examples, most of them translations from the classic authors in one column, and the Latin words in another. To which is subjoined in the same method, a succinct account of the affairs of ancient Greece and Rome; intended at once to bring boys acquained with history, and the idiom of the Latin tongue: with rules for the gender of nouns. A new edition, diligently revised, and carefully corrected. By John Clarke, late master of the Public Grammar-School in Hull
