PREFACE 


In preparing the Classic Series of Interlinear Transla- 
tions the publishers have insisted upon a faithful adher- 
ence to two obvious essentials; the reduction of the original 
“text to the natural order, and, as far as possible, a strictly 
literal version. 

In all cases, however, where the meaning as thus 
literally rendered is not sufficiently intelligible, explanatory 
words or phrases have been added. 

It is hoped that the plan will be appreciated of insert- 
ing all explanatory words and phrases, by means of brackets, 
in immediate conjunction with the texts thus obviating the 
annoyance and the ‘getibus losé of firhé.that attend trequent 
reference to notés by. siumbered gardgyaphsin an appendix, 

The superiority is readily ‘apparent of the interlinear 
over other translations, not only in the saving of time,but also 
for all purposes of careful study; making possible as well 
as convenient and easy, acorrect solution of idioms, a quick 
insight into the sense, a facile and lucid re-arrangement of 
the context in the English order, and a practical comparison 
of both the similarities and the contrasts of construction.

overworked teacher can keep a 
complete record for each pupil 
for every day during a whole

to write the pupils’ names only 
once for the whole period. Plenty 
of space for attendance, deport-

venient size to carry to and from 
school in the pocket.
