A Complete English-Latin Dictionary: For the Use of Colleges and Schools

Excerpt from A Complete English-Latin Dictionary: For the Use of Colleges and Schools

Br: patient, says an Eastern proverb, and the mulberry-leaf will become satin. The Author of this Volume fears that he has severely exercised the patience of many persons by whom its announcement was favourably received. He is not bold enough to apply the latter portion of the proverb to the quality of his work but he fearlessly asserts that his own patience has been the most severely taxed, and he trusts that the arduous nature of his task will be deemed a sufficient excuse for the delay which has taken place.
