Excerpt from Method of Analysis: With Passages From English Literature for PracticeThe teacher will usually find abundant examples in the reading book or work Of literature studied by the class; but as no one book can give every variety both of construction and style, I venture to hope this little book may serve a useful purpose. That it may not be devoid Of literary interest, I have chosen, where I could, passages conspicuous for beauty either Of thought or diction. Among my own pupils many have found great pleasure in identifying quotations; so, that the search may not last too long, I have added an index of the authors and their works which may be used or not as a kind Of key. A few extracts however, taken from examination papers, I have so far failed to identify.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
