described with facility.”

=Hudibras.= By DR. BUTLER. With an introductory note by T. W. H.
CROSLAND. With Twelve Illustrations after Hogarth. Foolscap 8vo,
cloth, top edge gilt, with bookmark, 2s. net; leather, top edge
gilt, with bookmark, 3s. net.
=Bookman.=—“Messrs. Greening here give us a most interesting reprint
of Butler’s celebrated poem in a form which strikes us as being
entirely appropriate. The size of page, type and margin are both
delightful to the eye of a book lover, and pleasantly reminiscent of
the little volumes of the 17th century. While the fine paper, and the
dozen excellent reproductions of Hogarth’s well-known plays, the
portrait of Butler himself, and the neat, artistic binding make it, in
its way, a miniature Edition de Luxe.”
=The Pomps of Satan.= A volume of Essays by EDGAR SALTUS. Crown 8vo,
cloth, 3s. 6d.
=Gœthe’s Life at Weimar (1775–1779).= By G. H. LEWES. Foolscap 8vo.
cloth, 3s. 6d.
=“The Lyons Mall.”= Being the true story of the murders, founded on an
authentic account by one of the descendants of the murdered courier.
Translated from the French by ROBERT H. SHERARD. Crown 8vo, cloth,
6s.
=Globe.=—“A very interesting narrative.”
=Queen.=—“The book is terse and interesting. It never flags.”
=Public Opinion.=—“We get not only an insight into the doings of
knights of the French roads of the last years of the 18th century, but
a vivid and exciting story.”
=Morning Advertiser.=—“Not only is the old story at once thrilling and
true, but it is different from the drama which Sir Henry Irving still
keeps familiarly before the present generation, a question both of
personal justice and of a point of law that renders the book as
important as it is sure to be popular.”
=Pentonville from Within.= With an actress in the background. By
E.B.P. Crown 8vo, cloth, 6s.
=The Cynic’s Posy.= Epigrams written and compiled by G. F. MONKSHOOD.
