Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Hundred Riddles of Symphosius: Translated Into English Verse With an Introduction and Notes
In these days, a first edition in English of a classical author is a great rarity. An especial interest, therefore, attaches to the Riddles of Symphosius, which have now, for the first time, been translated and annotated in our language. It may serve to call the attention of Latin scholars to the wealth of unique and valuable literature which still lies, as it has lain for centuries, practically unknown except to a few German and French savants.
