By ANTHONY RICH, JUN. B.A.

Late of Caius College, Cambridge: and

One of the Contributors to Dr. Smith's "Dictionary of Greek and Roman Antiquities."

Opinions of the Press.

Britannia. The work is so judicious both in design and execution as to deserve a place in every col. lection of classics, and to lie on the table whenever a classic author is read.

Morning!Advertiser.-Not only a requisite and most serviceable companion to the student and to the scholar, but a welcome and desirable addition to every gentleman's library.

Examiner. This admirable book will be as welcome to mature students as to those who are commencing study. It is an original contribution to the investigation of classical literature, as delightful as it is ably executed.

Spectator. A useful book for the youthful student or the general reader. The object is to define the words that represent the names of visible objects, by exhibiting engravings of the things themselves to the eye.

Literary Gazette. It is a master-key to unlock the doors of Greek and Latin dictionary reference. ....There is not a school where languages are taught, nor a place or library where history is read in the empire, that can do without it.

John Bull.-There is not a subject connected with the habits and pursuits of the Greeks and Romans, on which this copious repertory does not contain ample information. The classical student will find it an invaluable addition to his works of reference.

Morning Herald. The advanced scholar and proficient in Greek and Latin cannot fail to acquire new and precise information on all points connected with the life and manners of the two classical nations from a perusal of its pages......All students of ancient literature are greatly indebted to Mr. Rich.

Educational Times.-This book will prove an invaluable assistant to the student of the classic literature of Greece and Rome......... will furnish, in a condensed and accessible form, a vast store of information on classical topics which has hitherto been denied to all but those who could gain admission to libraries and museums of the highest order.
