Thank you for the sympathies. At least I think I am in a better
position than John Brown was when he taught himself Greek while herding
sheep. ;-) (In my case, I'm like sheep being herded inside the train).
However, I still don't know why Hudson's book can be any better than
Machen's (unless one thinks ignoring the accents is a better way).

Ah, Sie sind Deutscher? That's another language I'm trying to learn in
the Tokyo subway...;-)
