Excerpt from Studies in the Greek and Latin Versions of the Book of Amos Short, and in some cases superficial, as this Dissertation is it is the result - or rather, the partial result - of several years reading. It has been impossible to indicate my indebtedness in every case; one reads and assimilates, and then frequently forgets to whom the debt is due; on the other hand, one comes, apparently independently, to some conclusion, and finds perhaps a little later on that some one else has arrived at a similar one. It may, at any rate, be said that every conclusion arrived at, whether independently or through the guidance of other books, has been conscientiously considered by personal examination of the point under investigation. I desire to express my thanks to the Rev. G. H. Box for most kindly suggesting several improvements in my ms, especially in its preparation for the Press, and also to the reader at the Uni versity Press for his most careful correction of the proof-sheets.
