Abstract
As the examinations for which this work is intended to prepare pupils rigidly require what are called Euclid's proofs we have here merely an edition mainly on the lines of Simson's text. This text is so presented that the pupil may see how to write out his “props” in such a way as shall please the examiner. Everything is done that can be done by another to secure success. That the pupil may not be physically incommoded more than is absolutely necessary the text is so printed as to involve the minimum of exertion.
