Book Description
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Classical Enigmas : Adapted to Every Month in the Year, Composed from the English and Roman Histories, Heathen Mythology and Names of Famous Writers That Monster of Rome, who no equal can claim, For the crimes that for ever, have blacken'd his name. Augustus's sister, great Anthony's wife, Whom he left for that beauty, who cost him his life. The Emperor, who thought it improper to lay, When death call'd his soul from his body away, Determin'd the summons undaunted to meet, And was plac'd by his courtiers erect on his feet. That Prince whom the Romans delighted to name, As first of their race, tho' from Venus he came. That Emperor gigantic, who for his ring chose A bracelet, the wrist of his wife could enclose. The harsh Roman Father, who sternly sat by To condemn, and behold, his own children die. The conquer'd, whom first Cincinnatus did doom To pass through the yoke, for contending with Rome. Last one of the Twins, who was nurs'd by a goat, Yet founded old Rome, that great city of note. Now take the initials, and put them together, They'll tell you a month, that has often wet weather.
