Spanish, like its homeland, abounds in startling contrasts and spectacu- lar color. Its rapid intonation brings to mind shouts of ole as the stirring drama of a bullfight unfolds.

Latin students first learn the grammatical fundamentals, and then proceed to the study and translation of excerpts from the works of Caesar, Cicero, and Virgil.
