Synopsis
Excerpt from The Study of Ancient History in Oxford
I. I had once a pupil who began his Oxford course by reading for Classical Honour Moderations. Reasons which I have forgotten made him change his plans after a term or so: he took up Pass Moderations instead and I had to teach him for that examination. He was very. Confident that he could surmount the Pass hedges with complete ease, but I had soon to tell him that the work he had done for Honours would lead him straight to a heavy fall. He could translate his books, or most parts of them. He had no idea whatever of getting up their contents, and when one asked him the usual question, Who did what when he was beaten.
