However, it was found that the mere reduction of the Arabic portion would not suffice to answer the purpose intended. The lines originally laid down for this dictionary were to prepare a revised edition of Johnson's enlargement of Wilkins-Richardson's Persian, Arabic, and English Dictionary, by reducing the Arabic element and increasing the Persian, so as to produce a volume specially adapted to the needs of the English students.

It is hoped that this Dictionary will justify its claim to comprehensiveness.
