Paperback, [PU: Forgotten Books], Excerpt from Greek Grammar for the Use of Schools: From the German of Philip Buttmann The deficiency of the Greek Grammars in use ih' this coun try, has been generally felt and loudly complained of. Till a comparatively late period, use was made almost exclusively of the small Latin compend, usually called the Westminster Greek Grammar. The Gloucester Greek Grammar was chiefly trans lated from this, and imperfectly supplied its numerous deficien cies. Of late years Valpy's Greek Grammar has been exten sively used, and with great advantage, being in many respects worthy. Of high commendation. That it is, however, but an in sufficient guide to' the student who seeks a thorough acquaint ance with the language, will be generally admitted, and it is al so not wholly free from the imperfections of the former scho lastic compends.
