'Beautiful Radha, jasmine-bosomed Radha,'
from the allurements of the forest nymphs, in whom the five
senses are typified."--_Times._
"No other English poet has ever thrown his genius and his
art so thoroughly into the work of translating Eastern ideas
as Mr. Arnold has done in his splendid paraphrases of
language contained in these mighty epics."--_Daily
Telegraph._
"The poem abounds with imagery of Eastern luxuriousness and
sensuousness; the air seems laden with the spicy odours of
the tropics, and the verse has a richness and a melody
sufficient to captivate the senses of the
dullest."--_Standard._
"The translator, while producing a very enjoyable poem, has
adhered with tolerable fidelity to the original
text."--_Overland Mail._
"We certainly wish Mr. Arnold success in his attempt 'to
popularise Indian classics,' that being, as his preface
tells us, the goal towards which he bends his
efforts."--_Allen's Indian Mail._

THE MIND OF MENCIUS;
OR, POLITICAL ECONOMY FOUNDED UPON MORAL PHILOSOPHY.
A SYSTEMATIC DIGEST OF THE DOCTRINES OF THE CHINESE PHILOSOPHER
MENCIUS.
Translated from the Original Text and Classified, with Comments and
Explanations,
By the REV. ERNST FABER, Rhenish Mission Society.
Translated from the German, with Additional Notes,
By the REV. A. B. HUTCHINSON, C.M.S., Church Mission, Hong Kong.
"Mr. Faber is already well known in the field of Chinese
studies by his digest of the doctrines of Confucius. The
value of this work will be perceived when it is remembered
that at no time since relations commenced between China and
the West has the former been so powerful--we had almost said
aggressive--as now. For those who will give it careful
study, Mr. Faber's work is one of the most valuable of the
excellent series to which it belongs."--_Nature._

THE RELIGIONS OF INDIA.
BY A. BARTH.
Translated from the French with the authority and assistance of the
Author.
The author has, at the request of the publishers, considerably
enlarged the work for the translator, and has added the literature of
the subject to date; the translation may, therefore, be looked upon as
an equivalent of a new and improved edition of the original.
"Is not only a valuable manual of the religions of India,
which marks a distinct step in the treatment of the subject,
but also a useful work of reference."--_Academy._
