CONSTABLE, Printers to His Majesty at the Edinburgh University Press * * * * * * * * * POPULAR BALLADS OF THE OLDEN TIME Selected and Edited by FRANK SIDGWICK FIRST SERIES. Ballads of Romance and Chivalry. 1903. ‘It forms an excellent introduction to a sadly neglected source of poetry.’ --_Athenæum._ ‘There can be nothing but praise for the selection, editing, and notes, which are all excellent and adequate. It is, in fine, a valuable volume of what bids fair to be a very valuable series.’ --_Academy._ ‘The most serviceable edition of the ballads yet published in England.’ --_Manchester Guardian._ SECOND SERIES. Ballads of Mystery and Miracle and Fyttes of Mirth. 1904. ‘It includes many beautiful and well-known ballads, and no pains have been spared by the editor in producing them, so far as may be, in their entirety.’ --_World._ ‘The second volume . . . carries out the promise of the first. . . . Even after Professor Kittredge’s compressed edition of Child, . . . Mr. Sidgwick’s work abundantly justifies its existence.’ --_Manchester Guardian._ THIRD SERIES. Ballads of Scottish Tradition and Romance. 1906. ‘This book is as good a model of fine and careful editing as the two earlier volumes. . . . Mr. Sidgwick’s selections could not be bettered, nor could he have arranged them more attractively.’ --_Manchester Guardian._ ‘There can be no doubt that when the series is completed it will be the best cheap and popular and representative collection.’ --_Bookman._ _FROM SIDGWICK & JACKSON’S LIST_ +EARLY ENGLISH LYRICS: Amorous, Divine, Moral, and Trivial+.
