They reprinted the Greek one a few years ago - much better than the Oxford one, as it goes right from Homer to Elytis, instead of stopping short with the Greek Anthology. Simili modo the Penguin Latin goes from Ennius to Donne, Swinburne and Sir A. Quiller-Couch.

The other day I reached down my Penguin Book of Latin Verse, purchased (for 7/6) while I was at school, in 1962. There is a potted biography of each writer and that on Leo xiii says, " ... had strong literary tastes and was steeped in the Latin classics.
