This work, which is intended equally for the simultaneous and the
separate study of the languages that it sets forth, and which is adapted
as well for the native of Germany, France, Italy, Spain, or Portugal, as
for him to whom English is vernacular, in the acquirement of any one of
the other tongues besides his own, will be found an acceptable manual
not only to the tyro, but to the more advanced scholar. The reading
portion of the matter is interesting, and the text in every case
remarkably correct, while the Elementary Phrases, forms of Cards,
Letters, Bills of Exchange, Promissory Notes, Receipts, &c., in the six
languages, constitute what has long been a desideratum from the American
press. For the comparative study of the _Romanic_ tongues the work
affords unusual facilities.
