Excerpt from Materials for Latin Prose
As Rome was not built in a day, so the art of writing her language is not to be acquired by reading a short preface or a few rules. In truth, in the acquisition of this skill, there are two distinct stages: he who arrives at the end of the first will be yet far distant from the completion of the second. The first point to aim at is the avoidance of syntactical errors, and to this end rules are available and useful. Experience shows that successive learners run through nearly the same round of mistakes, until one can predict, in any given piece, without much chance of failure, where the error will intrude. Of course there are exceptions to this, and perverse ingenuity will always find 'ample room and verge enough, ' and new worlds to conquer. Still, in the main, the errors of those who have recently left the usual exercise books can be reduced to a few heads.
