on the
continent of Europe the pronunciation of Latin and Greek is in like manner
made to correspond in each nation to the pronunciation of its own language,
and thus there is much diversity among the continental systems, though they
resemble each other more closely than they do the English. In England and
America also the continental methods of pronunciation have been extensively
used. Thus AEneas may be pronounced A-na'-ahss; Aides ah-ee'-daze. Since the
true, the ancient, pronunciation has been lost, and, as many contend,
cannot be even substantially recovered, it is a matter of individual
preference what system shall be followed.]
