Ursinus College, 1870-87; Professor of the Greek Language and Literature, 18S7 ; Dean, 1892. The Greek language is unique, distinguished for precision, clearness, completeness, and flexibility, and has no equal as an instrument of human speech. It has a direct bearing of Greek thought on modern life. Greek is the original language of the New Testament. Modern science has constructed its most refined and complicated terminology chiefly from the Greek. The Greek language ought to be profoundly studied for the native excellence of the Greek classics, for the invigorating discipline it affords, for the practical knowledge and mastery of our own native language, and as a preparation for the study of theology.
