Book excerpt: Excerpt from Treasury Of Latin Gems: A Companion Book And Introduction To The Treasures Of Latin Literature There is probably nothing which gives such keen delight to the ordinary student of Latin, or tends so much to stimulate interest in its literature, as the occasional study of passages that glow with beautiful expressions of thought, or embody in, terse and pleasing form the Wit and wisdom of the age in which they were written. The mind is naturally attracted by the beautiful; and that which tends to awaken interest in the subject of research, as every teacher knows, is one of the most effective and unfailing aids. It is with this end in view that the present volume has been prepared, and it is offered to the public in the hope that it may prove as helpful to others as it has to the author in his efforts to awaken in his students a love for the beauties of Latin literature, as well as deepen and broaden the field of their conception and research.
