The lessons in this volume are designed not merely to improve fluency and expression, but to cultivate judgment, imagination, and virtue through attentive engagement with excellent literature. As you read, strive to understand not only the meaning of the words, but also the truths about human nature, character, and duty that the authors seek to convey. Read carefully, recite thoughtfully, and allow these lessons to strengthen both your command of language and your formation as a wise and eloquent student.
