Excerpt from Class Book of Prose and Poetry: Consisting of Selections From the Best English and American Authors, Designed as Exercises in Parsing; For the Use of Common Schools and Academies The publication of the "Poetical Selections" was regarded as an experiment. The Compilers believed that such a book was needed, and that it would be cordially welcomed by teachers generally. The marked favor with which it has been received, and the rapid sale of a large edition, show that they were not mistaken. Thus far, their expectations have been more than realized. In preparing a second edition, the Compilers have aimed to supply the acknowledged deficiencies in the first They have consulted many of the best teachers in New England, who have need the book, and have availed themselves of their criticisms and suggestions. Only two prominent faults have been pointed out, viz., that the selections were too difficult, as a whole, for general use; and that there was need of exercises in prose. A few pieces of poetry have been, accordingly, rejected, and their place supplied by others more simple and better adapted to the design of the book, and some twenty pages of choice prose have been inserted. The selections have been made from the best English and American authors, and will be found alike characterized by purity of style and sentiment. It is confidently believed that the exercises will now be found well adapted to all classes of grammarians in our common schools and academies; and that they afford a sufficient variety of construction, to illustrate all the principles and peculiarities of the English language. Notes have not been appended, for the obvious reason that whatever tends to prevent self-application cannot fail to do injury.

This study is the first concentrated investigation of the Old English Book of Consolation Meters, associated with King Alfred’s court. These Alfredian poems, which have long been neglected, recapture poetic ideas from their Latin model, Boethius’ De Consolatione Philosophiae. This volume examines the Meters as poetic responses to the prose passages of the Froferboc. The poetry provides allusive commentary on the prose as it echoes poetic ideas in Boethius’ poetry. It is the first study to benefit from the recent edition of the Froferboc, the first printed edition to restore the prosimetrum format presented in the earliest manuscript.
