Description

Tuccia, a Roman lady who was a priestess of the goddess Vesta and who, as such, was obliged to maintain her virgin state, was on one occasion accused of unchastity. She vindicated herself by carrying water in a sieve from the Tiber to the temple of Vesta. There is, unfortunately, no similar clear-cut method for testing an ability to learn Latin, but to approach the subject in a wrong way will automatically put you at a disadvantage. If you are working on your own, your first step should be to make yourself completely familiar with the arrangement of this book, what material it contains, and how this material is presented
