John Stuart Mill · en
"_An admirable edition, the result of great research and
of a careful revision of the text. The memoir prefixed
contains, within less than ninety pages, as much sound
criticism and as comprehensive a biography as the student
of Dryden need desire._"--PALL MALL GAZETTE.
=Cowper's Poetical Works.= Edited, with Notes and Biographical
Introduction, by WILLIAM BENHAM, Vicar of Addington and
Professor of Modern History in Queen's College, London.
pp. lxxiii., 536.
"_Mr. Benham's edition of Cowper is one of permanent
value. The biographical introduction is excellent,
full of information, singularly neat and readable and
modest--indeed too modest in its comments. The notes
are concise and accurate, and the editor has been able
to discover and introduce some hitherto unprinted
matter. Altogether the book is a very excellent
one._"--SATURDAY REVIEW.
=Morte d'Arthur.=--SIR THOMAS MALORY'S BOOK OF KING ARTHUR AND
OF HIS NOBLE KNIGHTS OF THE ROUND TABLE. The original Edition
of CAXTON, revised for Modern Use. With an Introduction by Sir

"_It is with perfect confidence that we recommend
this edition of the old romance to every class of
readers._"--PALL MALL GAZETTE.

Introductions, Notes, Running Analysis, and an Index. By JAMES
LONSDALE, M.A., late Fellow and Tutor of Balliol College, Oxford,
and Classical Professor in King's College, London; and SAMUEL
LEE, M.A., Latin Lecturer at University College, London, pp. 288.
"_A more complete edition of Virgil in English it is
scarcely possible to conceive than the scholarly work
before us._"--GLOBE.
=The Works of Horace.= Rendered into English Prose, with
Introductions, Running Analysis, Notes, and Index. By JOHN
LONSDALE, M.A., and SAMUEL LEE, M.A.

explanation._"
