A treatise of the genders of Latin nouns: by way of examination of Lilly's Grammar rules, commonly called, Propria quæ maribus. Being a specimen of Grammatical commentaries, intended to be published by way of subscription upon the whole grammar. Shewing, that system to be i many things false, in most obscure; superfluous in things unnecessary, and defective in things necessary; and consequently an insufferable impediment to the progress of youth. Containing, abundance of necessary rules and observations, not to be found in all the notes that are yet extant upon it, nor even in all the grammarians put together. With an examination of the opinions of all the grammarians of note, both ancient and modern, as occasion requires. Useful for schools, and such as wou'd attain to the true knowledge of the Latin tongue. By Ric. Johnson, M.A. once master of the King's School, Canterbury.
