Excerpt from Copious Latin Grammar
It has been necessary to make many alterations of the original, to accommodate it to the difference between the German and English languages. But these are not the only changes. The Author's style is exceedingly heavy and from a strange suppo sition that a work of this kind could be put into the hands of beginners, he often enters into super ?uons and tiresome repetitions as, therefore, this is not a work ofimagination or taste, the style has been freely re-modelled, and all those parts which seemed useless have been suppressed the transla tion, though still long, has been thus reduced by as many as a hundred pages. For the same reason the Author's Prefaces have been omitted, as they merely contain remarks upon the necessity of clearly explaining the principles and terms of Gram mar, and its object and extent, which are repeated in the bod y of the work. The Index has also been retrenched of all those particulars which could as well be learnt from the table of Contents.
