WORKS ON LANGUAGE. 45 



This work, as the SATURDAY REVIEW acknowledges, "is one which 

 stands alone in our language." The subject is one acknowledged to 

 be of the highest importance as a handmaid to History, Ethnology, 

 Geography, and even to Geology ; and Mr. Taylor's work has 

 taken its place as the only English authority of value on the subject. 

 JVbt only is the work of the highest value to the student, but will be 

 found full of interest to the general reader, affording him wonderful 

 peeps into the past life and wanderings of the restless race to which 

 he belongs. Every assistance is given in the way of specially pre- 

 pared Maps, Indexes, and Appendices ; and to anyone who wishes 

 to pursue the study of the subject further, the Bibliographical List of 

 Books will be found invaluable. The NONCONFORMIST says, ' * The 

 historical importance of the subject can scarcely be exaggerated." 

 "His book,''' the READER says, "will be invaluable to the student of 

 English history" "As all cultivated minds fed curiosity about 

 local names, it may be expected that this will become a household 

 book," says the GUARDIAN.

 Dublin. (For other Works by the same Author, see THEOLOGICAL 

 CATALOGUE.) 



Archbishop Trench has done much to spread an interest in the history 

 of our English tongue. He is acknowledged to possess an un- 

 common power of presenting, in a clear, instructive, and interesting 

 manner, the fruit of his own extensive research, as well as the 

 results of the labours of other scientific and historical students 

 of language ; while, as ^<?ATHEN^UM says, " his sober judgment 

 and sound sense are barriers against the misleading influence of 

 arbitrary hypotheses. " 



SYNONYMS OF THE NEW TESTAMENT. New Edition, 

 enlarged. 8vo. cloth. I2s, 



The study of synonyms in any language is valuable as a discipline for 

 training the mind to close and accurate habits of thought; more 

 especially is this the case in Greek ' ' a language spoken by a people of 

 the finest and subtlest intellect; who saw distinctions where others saw 

 none; who divided out to different words what others often were 

 content to huddle confusedly under a common term" This work is 

 recognized as a valuable companion to every student of the New 

 Testament in the original. This, the Seventh Edition, has been
