Typo corrected:

In "Homer and Humbug," Leacock says, "I was myself trained as a =
classical scholar.  It seemed the only thing to do with me.  I acquired =
such a singular facility in handling Latin and Greek that I could take a =
page of either of them, distinguish which it was by merely glancing at =
it, and, with the help of a dictionary and a pair of compasses, whip off =
a translation of it in less than three hours."
