I can scarcely help smiling at what you say, and at the anxiety you feel. I only gave three days for direct preparation, and you need not give one. But since omne ignotum pro magnifico, I will tell you what really took place. He then goes on to say that he was examined with his friend Wheeler and a Christ Church man. The books he took up in Greek were Thucydides and Herodotus. But in Latin he made no selection; he took up all: omnes optimae aetatis auctores--omnes aureos auctores--are the expressions he employs. His friend Wheeler followed his example in the Latin, and took up Sophocles and Longinus in the Greek. In Hebrew Daniel Wilson stood alone.
