The Lectures on A eschylus, Sophocles, Euripides, and Aristophanes were, in each case, supplemented by an after-lecture, not included in the present volume, in which the subject was more fully treated for the benefit of those of the audience who proposed presenting themselves for the Examination held at the end of the course.
