Excerpt from The Primitives of the Greek Tongue: With Rules for Derivation The Greek Grammar and Greek Pri mitives ofthe learned messrs. DE port. Royal are Well known. As these works are not now to be easily obtained, and are moreover too expensive for the ge nerality of scholars, I have thought it of some service to reprint the primi tives. These may be committed to memory; and this exercise Will be found a very useful one. To increase the value of this little book, and to render it acceptable to students of a more ad vanced standing, I have added the rules for derivation, fromthe Greek Grammar of Messrs. De Port Royal.
