PREFACE.

THE notes upon the first four books of this Edition of the Iliad are abridged from my recently published edition of those books. Those upon the other books are translated, with a few additions and alterations, from Dr. Dübner, the learned editor of the Paris edition of Stephens's Thesaurus. I have added five Appendices, of which the last contains an account, from the Lexilogus, of Buttmann's investigations, as interesting as they are original, in this department of Classical Philology. For the translation of Dr. Dübner's notes my thanks are due to the Rev. A. R. Webster, Perpetual Curate of Bradninch, Devon.
