ments which he has made on the original text, but also, though very
reluctantly, to omit the continuation of Grecian history, which was
promised in the prospectus. The loss of this part of his labours is
perhaps of little moment, since, in consequence of the conflict-
ing statements which we occasionally receive respecting the ope-
rations in modern Greece, but scanty materials can be obtained for
an historical narrative. As regards the typographical execution
of the present work, no pains have been spared to render it at the
same time neat and accurate. It is to be feared, however, that not-
withstanding all the pains which have been taken in this respect,
some errors in the Greek terms mav have crept into the work. In-
deed, they may well be deemed unavoidable in so long and tedious
an undertaking. Should any be detected, the student is furnished
with an easy and expeditious mode of correcting them, by referring
to the index of Greek words and phrases at the eud of the volume.
It would be injustice on the part of the editor, not to r< mark in con-
clusion, that if any merit attaches itself to the republication of the
present work, it belongs entirely to the enterprising individual from
whose press it makes its appearance.
