Excerpt from The Beginner's Greek Composition, Vol. 1: Based Mainly Upon Xenophon's Anabasis
The method assumes of necessity, and this is conceived to be one of its chief recommend ations, great familiarity with the original. Such a ready command of the Greek original can neither be required nor expected of more than a limited amount of text. Nor is it essential.

The case is not the same as in Latin, where a much wider and more various reading pre cedes and accompanies Latin Composition.
