(Weidmannische Handlung/Insel Verlag, 1757)

Aesop's Fables in English & Latin, Interlineary, for the Benefit of those who not having a Master, Would Learn Either of these Tongues
(Printed for A. and J. Churchil at the Black Swan in Pater-noster-row, 1703)
There are 337 pages for two-hundred-and-thirty fables. I think I laughed at Locke's project when I first read of it. It makes more sense to me now. He is trying to help people who cannot get to school to learn Latin, ...

Les Fables d'Esope Phrygien avec Celles de Philelphe. Traduction Nouvelle
(1757)
Edition nouv. avec nouvelles Fig. The date is unfortunately cut off the bottom of the page. This copy seems to line up perfectly with Bodemann #97.3 except for the frontispiece, which here has Aesop (?) on a pedestal in ...
Aesop's Fables English and Latin/Aesopi Fabulae Anglo-Latinae
(J. Read, 1731)

A typical early-18th century bilingual textbook for learning Greek, presumably from the already known Latin. 62 fables. AI by Latin names on 63-4. It was very nice to find something old done in Scotland to bring back ...
