Terence (Male)
Genre: Drama
Terence’s Comedies, translated into English prose, as near as the propriety of the two languages with admit. Together with the original Latin from the best editions. Wherein the words of the Latin text are ranged in their grammatical order; the ellipses carefully supplied; the observations of the most valuable commentators, both antient and modern, represented; and the beauties of the original explained in a new and concise manner. With notes pointing out the connexion of the several scenes, and an index critical and phraseological. The whole adapted to the capacities of youth at school, as well as of private gentlemen. In two volumes. By S. Patrick, LL.D. editor of Ainsworth’s Dictionary, and Hedericus’s Lexicon.
