THE CANTERBURY POETS.

NEW VOLUME.

Square 8vo, cloth, 1s.; Gravure edition, with Frontispiece Portrait of
MATTHEW ARNOLD in Photogravure, price 2s.

THE STRAYED REVELLER, EMPEDOCLES ON ETNA, AND
OTHER POEMS.

By MATTHEW ARNOLD,

WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY WILLIAM SHARP.

     _The text of Arnold’s 1849 Volume_ (THE STRAYED REVELLER) _and of
     his 1852 Volume_ (EMPEDOCLES ON ETNA) _is reproduced, the original
     arrangement of the Poems being preserved. To these are added the
     Poems of Arnold’s 1853 Volume not contained in the two previous
     Volumes. The_ “CANTERBURY POETS” _edition will thus present a
     comprehensive collection of the highest literary interest and value
     of Arnold’s Poems in their original renderings, the early editions
     being now very rare and almost unprocurable. The interesting
     Preface which Arnold contributed to the 1853 Edition of his Poems
     appears as an Appendix to the Volume._
