The Latin Grammar of Gildersleeve and Lodge (Walton-on-Thames Surrey: T. Nelson and Sons, 1992), first published by Macmillan Education Ltd. in 1895, was an invaluable aid in the preparation of this course, and furnished a number of the examples. Gildersleeve and Lodge were at Johns Hopkins and Bryn Mawr, respectively.
Other examples are from Morwood, A Dictionary of Latin Words and Phrases (Oxford: Oxford Univ. Press, 1998).
The Latin text of In Trutina is from the booklet accompanying Charlotte Church's CD Voice of an Angel, Sony SK60957.
The Latin texts from Caesar, Vitruvius, Suetonius, and Frontinus are from the Loeb Classical Library.
All translations are by the author, and all errors his.
