_Good Words_ in 1869 contains two drawings to _Carmina Nuptialia_, and _The Sunday Magazine_ the same year has a very beautiful composition, _Blessings in Disguise_. In 1870-1871 _Good Words for the Young_ includes, in the first two volumes, no less than seventy-six illustrations by Mr. Hughes to _At the Back of the North Wind_, fourteen to _The Boy in Grey_, thirty to _Ranald Bannerman's Boyhood_, thirty to _The Princess and Goblin_, ten to _Lilliput Revels_, six to _Lilliput Lectures_, and two to _King Arthur_, besides one each to _Fancy_, _The Mariner's Cave_, and a notable design to _The Wind and the Moon_. In 1871 also belongs _My Lady Wind_ (p. 38), _Little Tommy Tucker_ (p. 46), in _Novello's National Nursery Rhymes_. In 1870 _Good Words_ contains four: _The Mother and the Angel_ and three full-page designs, which rank among the most important of the artist's work in illustration, to Tennyson's _Loves of the Wrens_. This song-cycle, which the late Poet Laureate wrote expressly for Sullivan to set to music, was issued in 1870 in a sumptuous quarto. The publisher, Strahan, who at that time issued all Tennyson's work, had intended to include illustrations, and three were finished before the poet vetoed the project. These were cut down and issued with the accompanying lyrics in _Good Words_. Although the artist, vexed no doubt at their curtailment, and by no means satisfied with their engraving, does not rank them among his best things, few who collect his work will share his view. Despite the trespass beyond the limit of this book, it would be better to continue the list to date, and it is all too brief. In 1872 _Good Words_ contains five of his designs, and _Good Words for the Young_ twenty-four to _Innocent's Island_, and eight to _Gutta-Percha Willie_. 1872 saw two remarkably good volumes decorated by this artist, T. Gordon Hake's _Parables and Tales_ (Chapman and Hall) and _Sing Song_, a book of nursery rhymes by Christina Rossetti (Routledge).
