Linguae Latinae liber dictionarius quadripartitus = A Latine dictionary, in four parts ... : wherein the Latine and English are adjusted, with what care might be, both as to stock of words and proprieties of speech : particularly, 1. in the English-Latine, more words and proprieties of our language, as now spoken, are set down, by several thousands, than in any other dictionary yet extant : 2. in the Latine-classick, the etymologies, significations, and phrases are fully and plainly, yet briefly, discoursed : together with the several kinds and constructions of the verbs, a thing hitherto not much regarded : 3. In the Latine-proper, the expressions of story, which were taken mostly out of Cooper, are much amended :and many useful things are now added, which were formerly omitted : with two mapps, one of Italy, another of old Rome : 4. In the Latine-barbarous, those words which through mistake of writing have been corrupted from the Latine, or by ignorance or boldness of later authors have crept into the Latine, are exposed and expounded : and in all four parts, many things that were utterly impertinent and cumbersom to school-institution and to true uses of learning, are laid aside : of all which several performances, together with new matter by way of appendage to the main work, a fuller account is given in the prefaces / operâ & studio Adami Littleton.
