Synopsis

Excerpt from The Letters of the Younger Pliny: Literally Translated

I have followed Keil's text, but not servilely. When a reading differing from his has been adopted, the difl'er enoe has commonly been referred to in a note. The notes are merely such as are absolutely necessary to make the English text intelligible to the, reader.
