[Verginius Rufus]

I have a two volume edition of the Septuagint (mostly a translation from Hebrew but it includes a few texts originally written in Greek). I have read bits of it but haven't tried to read large amounts. I also have the Greek New Testament which is a lot easier to handle (as a physical book), I have read a little of Homer but prefer classical prose authors like Thucydides and Xenophon. I have read the Epic of Gilgamesh in translation only--no intention of trying to learn to read it in the original.

For one of my undergraduate Greek classes, we read nearly the whole of Plato's Phaedo. In a high school Latin class we read Cicero's De amicitia.
