Excerpt from The Ten Tragedies of Seneca: With Notes, Rendered Into English Prose as Equivalently as the Idioms of Both Languages Permit
I have been so long favorably impressed with the force, beauty and artistic skill as portrayed in the Tragedies of Seneca, as to be convinced that a great loss has been sustained at the hands of many who would have fully appreciated the labors of that admirable poet, presumedly because they have never been presented to the reading world in a suitable English form.
