Abstract

The influence of the literature of Greece and Rome, not only upon that of the nations the groundwork of whose language may be traced back to classical sources, but on those civilised races who descend from a wholly different origin, has been a subject which has received much attention and abundant illustration. We formerly gave a collection of examples to be found in the writings of Shakespeare, and also from several of our English poets; and availing ourselves, as before, mainly of the labours of Henderson, give a continuation of our excerpts. They are very far indeed from being exhaustive, but they may encourage others to fill up the blanks that have been left.
