Excerpt from The Oration of Demosthenes Upon the Crown: Translated Into English, With Notes, and the Greek Text, With Various Readings Selected From Wolff, Taylor, Reiske, and Others Subsequent reflection has served to remove the deep impression which Lord Dudley's argu ment had made. It must be considered, in the first place, that even to scholars the experiment is not without interest of trying how far the two languages can be used so as to render in the one the thoughts couched originally in the other; and even to scholars the comparative trial of the structures of the two, their resemblances, their differences, and their contrasts, is very inte resting. Then, if indeed this be not included in the preceding observation, there can no more accurate method be fallen upon for well apprehending the force and genius of both tongues than such a comparative trial. Many things are sure to be thus observed which had previously escaped our attention: nor is it to be doubted that the sense, as well as the diction, of the original, is much more thoroughly perceived and felt after such an attempt. Ican truly say in the present case. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
