Excerpt from Elements of Greek Grammar The materials for the first edition of this work, were derived chiefly from the Grammar of Hachenberg. Additions were made, however, from other sources, and the plan entirely new modeled, in conformity to the existing modes of instruction in this country. In its progress through six editions, it has received numerous accessions of valuable matter from the later German Grammarians: the articles on the Middle Voice, Tenses, Moods, the construction of the Infinitive and of Participles, and General Principles of Government, have been re-written and enlarged, the Paradigms of the Irregular Verbs in, have been made more complete, a new article has been added on the Particles, and difficult forms of construction, and the Accents, have been introduced. By these successive changes, the work has lost its original character of a compilation from Hachenberg, and the name of that author, therefore, appears no longer in its title. The plan of Adams' Latin Grammar has been followed, as far as the nature of the case would admit. The leading principles of Etymology and Syntax, designed to be committed to memory, are printed in a larger type. Remarks and exceptions follow, under each head, in a smaller character.
