Abstract
The title continues For Those Who Begin to Read the French Language; Being the Fourth Elementary Work in the Complete Course of French Instruction. Surault here has selected one hundred of La Fontaine's best fables and rendered them into prose. A T of C at the beginning lists and numbers the hundred fables. Before the fables start, there is a rather lengthy treatise on pronunciation (xiii-xxxii). The fables themselves are presented simply in French prose on 1-78. Then follows the key, which presents each fable with an interlinear English translation below and a phonetic spelling for pronuncation above. The back cover lists all six books in the complete course. First there is a grammar, then exercises, then a key to the exercises. Our fables follow, and after them French Questions on Sir Walter Scott's Tales of a Grandfather. Last in the series is a set of French conversations.
