PREFACE TO THE FIRST EDITION.

THE object of such adapted Selections as these has some-

times been misunderstood. It has been supposed that the aim

is to save boys' thought ;the real aim is the reverse. It is to

get boys to think and to use their minds on the language at

a stage when otherwise they would either have had their

attention confined to Grammar or Delectus- work, or have

had to struggle at translating authors whose style is really

beyond them. Such a struggle does not, I believe, educate the

boy or make him think. He is simply baffled and bewildered

by having too many difficulties thrust on him at once, and

either buys a word for word translation, or simply looks out

the words without trying to connect them and discover a

meaning. The essence of good teaching seems to me to lie

in presenting to boys an infinite succession of problems

carefully graduated according to the exact stage of their

progress. Power is what we-'want;and the feeling of getting

on, the feeling of doing something with one's knowledge, the

pleasure of following a connected story all this awakens

interest, makes brain and heart work with eye and ear, in-

telligence with memory, and gives in fact that sense of powerwhich is one of the chief sources of power itself.

These '

Easy Selections'are adapted for boys who are only

just beginning Greek. They are somewhat graduated, so

that the beginning is made still easier than the rest;

in the

first hundred lines there are no augmented tenses, in the first

three hundred none which are not specially explained in the

notes. All through, the words are, as far as possible, put in

the order in which they should be taken;the sentences are

very short, and there is a Vocabulary containing not only all

the words, but all the more difficult forms of words used.

The whole is intended as a Preliminary Part to ' Selections

Adapted from Xenophon1,' which has now reached a third

edition. Since those ' Selections' were published I have been

so much engaged with other work that I should never have

been able to complete this Preliminary Part without the

welcome assistance of Mr. Jerram, who I found had already

prepared an edition of the Anabasis on his own account.

At my suggestion he kindly gave up this for an '

Adapted'

edition, to act as a First Greek Construing-book. Besides

his knowledge of the Anabasis, he brought to the work the

freshest acquaintance with the actual wants of boys beginning

Greek, from his experience in directing the classical teaching

of a large preparatory school. Though I am responsible for

the plan of the book, the main burden of the work has fallen

on his shoulders, and if these '

Easy Selections' should in any

way meet the wants of teachers, I hope the credit will be

given where it is due. We owe thanks to Mr. Beuttler for

preparing the first draught of the Vocabulary.

J. S. PHILLPOTTS.Jan. 1877.

PREFACE TO THE SECOND EDITION.

THE principal change in the Second Edition is that the

First Chapter has been made still easier than before. This

improvement has been effected, not by altering the text

(which might have caused inconvenience in schools where

the former Edition was already in use), but by additions

to the notes. The verb-forms are the great stumbling-

block to beginners, and throughout the first 300 lines everysuch form likely to cause any difficulty has been 'parsed.'

The aim of these Easy Selections is to enable a boy to

1If variety is desired, the 'Stories of Rhampsinitus and Marathon'

(Rivington, 2nd ed. 1877) may be used as a bridge between the two.

PREFACE. V

begin construing at once, without the intervention of any

Greek Reader or Delectus. At the request of the boys

themselves the book was introduced into a form, where manyhad begun their Greek Grammar but two or three weeks

previously ;and the experiment was found thoroughly suc-

cessful. Should it^be thought that a reading-book is out

of place at so early a stage, it must be remembered that

by the time boys begin Greek, the chief difficulties of trans-

lation from a foreign language have been already mastered

in Latin, if not in French as well. With Grammar and

Vocabulary a boy can begin construing almost as soon as

he knows the alphabet. The need of constant reference to

the Accidence to help him in this task makes an intelligent

boy look upon his Grammar as a friend rather than as a

foe; whereas, if he learns paradigms alone for several weeks

or months, he soon loses the interest of novelty in disgust

at the dryness of the method. The standard of accuracy

need not be lowered, but the required amount of accuracy

may be achieved as completely with a more ready coopera-

tion on the part of the learner. After all, we educate non

scholae sect vitae; and if, as we profess, our chief aim is to

develope intelligence, we cannot afford to dispense with the

exercise of it at any stage.

The First Edition was not stereotyped, on purpose to leave

room for alterations. Several minor additions are now intro-

duced, and the whole has been most carefully revised and

corrected. Should any errata still have escaped detection,

the Editors will be greatly obliged to any one who will send

a line to either of them.

NOTES,

CHAPTER I.

THE MARCH TOWARDS BABYLON.

[N.B. In the first loo lines no augmented tenses are used. There is a note

on every augmented tense throughout thefirst chapter. After Chapter 7 there

are notes on such augmented tenses only as present any peculiar difficulty.]

Line i. yiYVOVTal > the present instead of the past t-ytvovro. Tenses

are of two kinds, past or dead, and present or living. History, telling

of the past, should only use past or dead tenses, but it often uses presentor living tenses, to make the story more lively; as if the historian

were looking on at the time the thing happened. Hence the present

tense, when thus used, is called the historical present.

iraiSes S\JQ, instead of naiSt 5vo, because no stress is laid on the fact

that there were only two of them. But further on in 1. 4, where there is

such a stress, we find afifyorfpca rui natSt. Cp. IV. 279 note.

1. 2. Though Artaxerxes was the elder son, he was born before his

father became king. Cyrus was born after Darius had succeeded to the

throne, and this, according to Persian customs, gave him at least someclaim. Darius I had chosen Xerxes to succeed him on the same ground.

Cyrus was not thus chosen by his father ; but he was the favourite of

Parysatis (1. 18), and the queen-mother was powerful in Persia.

1. 3. dcrOsvwv, pres. past nom. masc. sing, of dcrfocecu, contracted

from aaOtvtoav.

Oavetv, 2 aor. infin. of Ovrjcr/coi (stem 0av-).

1. 4. irap-tivat, pres. infin. of irap-fipt,' I am present."

1. 6. opx^s, 'province.' A satrap was a viceroy under the king of

Persia. The satrapy of Cyrus consisted of Lydia, Phrygia, and Cappa-docia; the Ionian towns, or Greek colonies, had been under Tissaphernes,but about this time all of them, except Miletus, revolted to Cyrus.

1. 7. dva-pami,'

goes up,' i. e. inland or up from the coast. [Hencethe expedition of Cyrus is called 'Ava-paats or the March inland. Theretreat of the 10,000 Greeks should properly be called K.a.Ta.-@a<ns, or

the March doiun to the sea] .

1. 9. dva-pds, 2 aor. part. nom. masc. sing, of dra-/3aiVw (stem Pa-).

paaiXeiois, 'palace,' sc. Sw/juiffi. Distinguish rd. Paai\<t&., neut. pi.

of @a<jt\fios, from 7) /3a<j(Aeia, 'queen,' and this again from i) fiaaiKtia,

'kingdom.'1. 10. TXvra, 3 sing. pres. ind. of rt\( vrnoi, contracted for r\(vra(i.

1. 12. 8ia-pdXXi, 'accuses.' Ba\\(iv is' to throw,' Sid, 'indifferent

directions;' hence Sia-0a\\fiv, 'to pull to pieces' a person's character,

i.e. 'slander* or 'accuse.' Thus in the New Test. 6 Aid/3oA.os is a

title of Satan, 'the Accuser,' who tempts us to sin, and then accuses us

before God.

1. 15. diro-KTtivai, 1 aor. infin. act. of a-no-K-rtivca.

f| jff|TTjp, 'his mother,' lit. 'the mother' (of him whom we are talking

about). The Greek article is used for the possessive pronoun (' my,''

thy,''

his,' etc.) when the sense makes the reference clear.

1. 20. d4>-iKvoi)vT(u, 3 pi. pres. ind of d^-iwto/xat contracted from

Onp-lKvioVTO.1.

1. 21. KCU ovroi. Kai means (i) 'and,' joining two words or clauses

together, (2) 'also' or 'even,' laying a stress on some particular word.

Notliing makes greater nonsense of a Greek sentence than to confoundthese tiw) meanings of KOI. Think which makes sense here.

1. 22. pacnXet, 'the king.' Ba<7tA.vs without the article commonlymeans '

the great king' or ' the king of Persia,' being used like a propername. Sometimes fityas is added, as in 1. 182 of this chapter.

rots Pappdpois TOIS Trap' lavroi. i. e. the Asiatics who were in his

own service, as distinguished from the Persian envoys above mentioned,

who ' came from the king' (1. 20).

1. 23. i<rvv, 3 pi. pres subj. of tltf, I am.' The v is added to wert

because the next word begins with a vowel.

1. 24. TOV iroX(Atv, Lat. bellandi. The article TO is used to make a

declinable noun substantive of the so-called infinitive, so that it can be

declined like the Latin gerund. The usage makes it clear that the

infinitive really is, what it ought to be called, viz. a verb-noun.

1. 25. XApfl, 3 sing. 2 aor. subj. of Xa^avu (stem Xap>).

1. 26. XppovT|<7<$>. The name x(PP~VTlffos (or X /)ff"- |"?'os) 's fr m

\ipoot,'

land,' and rfco*,'

island,' and means ' a peninsula.' It was used

as a sort of proper name for the strip of land which forms part of Thrace,

and runs out along the north side of the Hellespont.1. 27. Yv6nvos, 2 aor. part, of 77'o>u (stem

1. 40. imp-tvai els SapSeis. As -nap tifit 'I am come,' it can be

used with a preposition signifying motion lo a place. Sardis was the

capital of Lydia, and Lydia had been made a Persian satrapy by Cyrus

the Great, when he conquered its king Croesus, B.C. 546.

prevent incursions of the Picts) : see opposite page. The wall of Media

was situated about 100 miles N.W. of Babylon, and must originally have

extended from the Tigris to the Euphrates ; but at this time there was

a considerable gap in the wall at the western or Euphrates end.

Tissaphemes must therefore have first led the Greeks some sixty miles

in a homeward (or north-westerly) direction, through this gap to the

north side of the wall, then have brought them back through the wall

1 This identifies Mr/Sias rtixos with the Wall of Nimroiid, said to have

been originally built by Nimrod, against the Ninevite invaders from the

north. Another view is that the ' Wall of Media'

was a long way south of

this, between Cunaxa and Babylon, and that Sittace was much lower downthe Tigris than it is placed in the above map. In this case, the Greeks

would have passed only once through the wall, from the north, so as to get

'inside,' i.e. on the south side, of it.

Xenophon had been a disciple of Socrates from his youth ; Socrates

himself wrote nothing, so we are indebted to his two pupils Xenophonand Plato for what we know of him. Xenophon's Memorabilia

(Reminiscences), or notes of Socrates' sayings, show the teacher's

practical good sense. Plato had a real grasp of philosophy and had

imagination as well, and in his dialogues or '

imaginary conversations'

he depicts Socrates as -a most subtle and humorous arguer on the

The word <t>d\ay does not necessarily mean a compact mass ; it was

only the Macedonian phalanx that was so, and our use of the term

comes from this. The proper meaning is' a line,' Lat. acies, as opposed

to ' a column.' In the present instance the Greeks first formed a line, but

finding this inconvenient for marching up the hill, they'

disposed their

companies in coltimns' (kiroi-fiaavro opQiovs rovs \6xovsl. 313). [Soldiers

cannot march 'in line' (i. e. standing side by side) unless the ground is

quite clear, like a parade ground. Going along roads and all ordinary

marching is done 'in column,' i. e. some four or more abreast, and the

rest following behind in a string.]
