Latin.—Either Allen & Greenough's, or Harkness', or Bullion & Morris', or Andrews & Stoddard's Latin Grammar, will be accepted. The exercises of Arnold's Latin Prose Composition should be thoroughly mastered by the student. These exercises should first be written, and afterward translated orally. In connection, with the study of Virgil, Latin Prosody should be learned, and the difference between prose and poetical constructions carefully noted.
