Bimillennial Virgil

"In this new edition, which is offered as a modest tribute on the bimillennial anniversary of Virgil's birth, part one contains books I-VI of the Æneid, followed by a full summary of books VII-XII ... The second part includes not only about four hundred lines from Ovid's Metamorphoses but also some of the best passages in the Fasti and the Tristia, as well as one extract from the Epistles from Pontus and two from the Heroides ... Extracts from Catullus are also included and a number of the most celebrated odes of Horace."--Preface.
