_THE ODYSSEY OF HOMER._
Translated into English Verse in the Spenserian Stanza. By PHILIP
STANHOPE WORSLEY, M.A., Scholar of Corpus Christi College. 2 vols.
Crown 8vo, 18s.
"Mr Worsley,--applying the Spenserian stanza, that beautiful romantic
measure, to the most romantic poem of the ancient world--making the
stanza yield him, too (what it never yielded to Byron), its treasures of
fluidity and sweet ease--above all, bringing to his task a truly
poetical sense and skill,--has produced a version of the 'Odyssey' much
the most pleasing of those hitherto produced, and which is delightful to
read."--_Professor Arnold on Translating Homer._

being, and the sublime simplicity of our religion."--_Blackwood's

In large 8vo, bound in cloth, richly gilt, 21s.
"There has been no modern poem in the English language, of the class to
which the 'Course of Time' belongs, since Milton wrote, that can be
compared to it. In the present instance the artistic talents of Messrs
FOSTER, CLAYTON, TENNIEL, EVANS, DALZIEL, GREEN, and WOODS, have been
employed in giving expression to the sublimity of the language, by
equally exquisite illustrations, all of which are of the highest
class."--_Bell's Messenger._
