 A MONODY 
 
 ON THE DEATH OF 
 
 THE LATE PEINCE CONSOKT. 
 
 " He, onely, like himselfe, was second unto none, 
 Whose detta (through life) we rue, and al in vain do mone."
 
 PART I.
 
 "What shall I say, to whom the past 
 
 Is present still? "What sing of Death, 
 Who taketh naught away but breath, 
 
 Who leaveth naught which shall not last? 
 
 Who leaveth love, a little spark 
 
 Half quench'd in tears which flow amain ; 
 
 Who leaveth, through the night of pain, 
 A beacon, burning in the dark.
 
 II. 
 
 To us the past appeareth sad, 
 
 Who feel our loss, bat cannot see 
 His gain, or ours; which seeing, He, 
 
 For us and for himself, is glad. 
 
 And greater than our loss, I ween 
 
 Loss could not be : for thine, sweet soul, 
 Is ours, who seemest, in thy dole, 
 
 Crown'd with our sorrow, sorrow's Queen. 
 
 And deeper than the constant sea 
 
 Which maketh moan upon the shore, 
 Our love doth grow to more and more, 
 
 And with its arms encompass thee.
 
 III. 
 
 To us the past is present still, 
 
 Who linger in the tearful vale ; 
 Who court not any changeful gale 
 
 Which wantons on the breezy hill. 
 
 To Her, to us, the vale is dear, 
 
 The sweet sad past which passeth not 
 We mourn around a mournful spot, 
 
 Wc languish for a by-gone year. 
 
 And still among us lives his name, 
 
 The man with head, and heart, and hand ; 
 
 And all about the sorrowing land, 
 From lip to lip is breathed his fame.
 
 PAET II.
 
 What art Thou, having past away, 
 
 Clear head, great heart, and royal hand? 
 Doth thy consummate spirit stand, 
 
 Among our spirits, here, to-day ? 
 
 What seest Thou, whose eyes are free 
 
 From mortal blindness? Let us know 
 The dead are round us. Let us grow 
 
 To that which Thou would' st have us be.
 
 12 
 
 II. 
 
 clear in thought, and pure in heart! 
 
 What tribute shall we bring to Thee, 
 
 Who brookest no impurity, 
 Who knowest now, no more in part? 
 
 Who seest from a blissful clime 
 
 That which we seek among the years, 
 And falter, blinded with our tears, 
 
 And lost among the mists of time. 
 
 No thought or act we offer Thee : 
 
 A crown of love with tears we bring 
 To Her, and in the song we sing 
 
 A sigh for purer love to be.
 
 13 
 
 III. 
 
 With close-lock'd hands, and mingled tears, 
 We linger in the valley still; 
 And round the bases of the hill 
 
 A mist is driven from the meres. 
 
 From out the mist come feeble cries, 
 
 Which mingle madly right with wrong. 
 We only know that Thou art strong, 
 
 And holdest truth among the wise: 
 
 Great Death hath made thee wise and strong 
 Our loss is dearer for Thy gain : 
 And growing wise in bearing pain, 
 
 We learn to sunder right from wrong.
 
 PAET III.
 
 What shall I sing of Death who came, 
 An angel robed in white, and bore 
 Him from us weeping on the shore? 
 
 How shall I measure praise or blame? 
 
 Death! Thon seest how we mourn. 
 
 We doubt not, but our eyes are dim ; 
 
 We fain would have a glimpse of Him 
 In that still place, beyond the bourne. 
 
 And, waiting by with folded wing, 
 The angel answers, "Be content: 
 Ye draw towards a great event, 
 
 Not seeing what the seasons bring."
 
 L8 
 
 II. 
 
 Beyond the bourne we have not been, 
 And he who goes may not return; 
 Or, coming back, we may not learn 
 
 "What are the things which he has seen. 
 
 And even Him we may not see. 
 
 The silent Soul is with us still, 
 Contemplating our little ill 
 
 In that great light which is to be. 
 
 We may not see : we can but trust 
 That He hath seen the end of all, 
 Discerneth that we shall not fall 
 
 Although we falter in the dust.
 
 PART IV.
 
 T. 
 
 The bells of Yule ring out again 
 
 The dying year. With note of woe, 
 And clang of war, the seasons go; 
 
 And Thou art gone, but we remain. 
 
 The seasons go, and swiftly come 
 The sister-seasons in their train ; 
 They come and go, but we, in pain, 
 
 Await a passage to our home ; 
 
 Nor sit and sing, with idle hand, 
 
 But mingle in the toil and strife, 
 And battle with the surge of life 
 
 Upon the borders of the land.
 
 22 
 
 II. 
 
 But ever sweet it seems to dream 
 
 Of Him we loved, at dewy dawn, 
 Or when long shadows span the lawn 
 
 And lie athwart the rosy stream. 
 
 And memory mingles other days 
 
 With those which are, and solace brings 
 To one who tunes his harp, and sings 
 
 Of grief that goes and love that stays; 
 
 Of love that cannot pass away, 
 
 Though all things else may come and go, 
 And life shall languish, as the snow 
 
 Which fails before a summer day.
 
 PAET V.
 
 What shall I sing of Death? who came, 
 A silent messenger of love, 
 And led Him to the courts above 
 
 Who bore on earth a splendid name, 
 
 Who wore his splendour without pride, 
 Who nobly fill'd a royal part, 
 A prince in deed, a king in heart, 
 
 Meet Consort for a peerless Bride. 
 
 The form shall moulder in the grave : 
 
 Thus much was fashion'd out of dust, 
 And we, though sad to lose it, must 
 
 Iteturn to earth the gift she gave. 
 
 To Nature we resign the form, 
 
 Well knowing that she will not lose 
 An atom, though the wild wind blows, 
 
 And ever beats the pitiless storm.
 
 26 
 
 [I. 
 
 With unremitting toil, the wave 
 
 Wears out the old sepulchral rock. 
 Hereafter mighty throes will shock 
 
 The crust of earth that holds thy grave : 
 
 For peopled town, and lonely grange, 
 Fair flower' d dell, and forest-trees, 
 Shall mingle under rolling seas, 
 
 And all that is shall suffer change. 
 
 Old races perish. But a few 
 
 Faint tracks remain. New forms abound 
 
 A little while, then strew the ground; 
 
 But over all the eternal blue. 
 
 Here seemeth tumult, jar and strife, 
 New forms and types replacing all, 
 A birth and death, a rise and fall, 
 
 But thence a voice, "I am the Life."
 
 27 
 
 III. 
 
 And through the seeming tumult, Thou 
 
 Did'st see the unseen, beyond the strife 
 Which throngs the crowded ways of life ; 
 
 Then seeing darkly, clearly now; 
 
 For ever with the True and Just, 
 
 In whom we live and blindly move, 
 In weakness leaning on the love 
 
 Which summon'd Nature out of dust, 
 
 And gave to her the changeful Hours 
 Which in a circle round her stand, 
 And gave to Death the border-land 
 
 Which lies between thy soul and ours.
 
 28 
 
 IT. 
 
 Feebly we go in darkness here, 
 
 With failing heart and aching brain. 
 Sad billows murmur on the main, 
 
 '0 that the end, the end were near!' 
 
 'What end?' I answer, making moan, 
 
 ' The end, the end,' they murmur still ; 
 And rocks the myriad- vaulted hill; 
 
 And all the weary seasons groan. 
 
 Redeemed Soul, I would not vex 
 
 Thy wisdom with a foolish song. 
 Sweet Nature do'th not any wrong, 
 
 Though all her ways my soul perplex. 
 
 We cleave to faith, we watch and pray, 
 We fold thy mantle round the heart, 
 And watching, as we sit apart, 
 
 Catch distant glimpses of the day.
 
 PART VI.
 
 Pure was thy life, and fair thy death, 
 A perfect lesson Thou hast left, 
 Which he may learn who is bereft, 
 
 Or in disquiet wandereth : 
 
 Allegiance to the true and good, 
 
 A constant heart, an eye that saw 
 God's ordinance in human law, 
 
 A little raft upon the flood : 
 
 A life fulfill' d with noble deeds, 
 A simple manly chastity, 
 A soul where rested charity 
 
 Above the tumult of the creeds.
 
 32 
 
 II. 
 
 I weep for Her, my grief is theirs 
 
 Who knew Thee most and loved Thee best 
 "We sadden, but there cometh rest, 
 
 An after-fruit of tears and prayers; 
 
 And love abideth evermore 
 
 To Thee, to us, and over all. 
 
 Death, we come if thou but call; 
 
 We yearn to quit the doubtful shore.
 
 33 
 
 III. 
 
 O love, who art and wilt endure, 
 
 Great Nature circles at Thy feet : 
 
 In Thee, at length, we trust to meet, 
 
 When Thou hast made our passion pure.

 ZAIDE. 
 
 1 Tuya soy, tuya seri 
 F tuya es mi vida, Zaidi." 
 
 I. 
 
 Pacing in a narrow street, 
 
 For a footfall listening, 
 For the light fall of light feet 
 In a balconied retreat, 
 Where long tendrils droop and meet, 
 
 While the stars are glistening; 
 
 ii. 
 Pacing moodily below, 
 
 Groaning in his sorrow, 
 Vcxt with bitter pang and throe, 
 Vext at one delaying so, 
 While the weary hours go 
 
 Creeping towards the morrow
 
 38 
 
 in. 
 In upon his clouded heart 
 
 Steals a ray of gladness, 
 Making all the gloom depart, 
 Felt in darkness when apart, 
 Healing all the ancient smart, 
 
 Cheering all his sadness; 
 
 rv. 
 In among the dew-dript flowers 
 
 Drowsily awaking, 
 On the floor of terraced bowers 
 Drops a foot-fall, like soft showers 
 Kissing leaves in April hours, 
 
 While the dawn is breaking ; 
 
 v. 
 Comes a vision past compare 
 
 Of a maiden slender, 
 Mantled with a veil of hair, 
 Draped in linen pure and fair, 
 While the Moor stands gazing there, 
 
 Rapt in musings tender.

 VI. 
 
 ' Bella Mora ! Slender maid ! 
 
 Silent is my pleading; 
 Not a sound of serenade, 
 Not a ring of spur or blade, 
 Not a murmur in the shade, 
 
 Tho' my heart is bleeding.' 
 
 VII. 
 
 'A te Moro! Aid knows 
 
 My heart too is wailing, 
 Woeful at the coming close 
 Of its blissful dream, which goes, 
 Like fair upland veil of snows 
 In the bright sun failing.' 
 
 VIII. 
 
 ' Let thy fair dream fail and go, 
 
 Fairer dawns the morrow; 
 Shall thy tears like fountains flow 
 Night and day? Dear love, not so 
 Lose thy fears, and trusting, know 
 Loss of all thy sorrow.'
 
 40 
 
 IX. 
 
 Quail' d she then at love's behest, 
 
 Doubtful blushes hiding. 
 'Ere the night fail'd in the west, 
 Drooping on her lover's breast, 
 Found she there true maiden's rest 
 In love's strength abiding.

 " De ver-le penar usi 
 Mai/ penada vivo yo, 
 Y remedio no le do. 
 
 More than little he loves me, 
 More than who should kinder be, 
 Loves me for this cruelty. 
 
 Yet, in being cruel to him, 
 
 My frail heart is rent with woe : 
 
 My vext eyes with tears grow dim, 
 
 Tears that rise but will not flow, 
 
 Seeing that he suffers so : 
 
 Shall I own it ? No, ah no !

 I. 
 
 At morn I leave 
 My couch, and fondly comb my golden hair : 
 
 Of leaf and bud I weave 
 
 A chaplet rare, 
 
 "Wherewith to make 
 My fair brow fairer at the noontide hour, 
 
 For thy sweet sake, 
 And to my sweetness add the fragrance of a flower,

 The breath of dawn 
 Proclaims thee coining, 'ere thou comest, dear : 
 
 About the shadowy lawn 
 
 Thy voice I hear. 
 
 The breeze of noon 
 With my fair locks shall fan thy brow, and I, 
 
 Thy lover, soon 
 With loving arms will form thy noontide canopy. 
 
 in. 
 
 My joy is full; 
 The bright sun gleams above the western flood, 
 
 And languid breezes lull 
 
 The dreaming wood. 
 
 Fair is my lot, 
 With fairy locks to shade thee; fair thy rest; 
 
 love, wake not !

 Lull him, lull him to sleep !

 Ah me, Ah me, 
 Would that I, with thee, 
 
 Might float at rest ! 
 For the lone sad sea 
 Bears my love on its breast ; 
 Lull him, lull him to rest!

 Spread thy broad sail 
 To the morning gale; 
 
 Come to thy rest !

 Thee, all day, from the west ; 
 Lull him, lull him to rest ! 
 
 IV. 
 
 Fair galley, glide 
 On a tranquil tide 
 
 Home to thy rest ! 
 The haven is wide, 
 And my sheltering breast 
 
 Yearns till it lull him to rest.

 JUANA. I. 
 
 i. 
 I know not what this phantom is that wanders 
 
 About the brain : 
 My lone heart knoweth not. but darkly ponders 
 
 Upon its pain. 
 
 ii. 
 I hear the sad sea moaning round the bases 
 
 Of the lone hills : 
 Sad as the sea, sad memory embraces 
 
 "Wide tract of ills; 
 
 in. 
 
 Dim hopes which glimmer like to distant mountains 
 
 In fading light, 
 Thro' tears which flow like never-failing fountains 
 
 By day and night.
 
 JTJANA. II. 
 
 i. 
 Are tears of any profit, 
 By night or day ? 
 When love hath past away 
 From sight, is aught left of it? 
 Say, sister, say. 
 
 ii. 
 Is love which passeth kinder 
 Than grief which stays? 
 Thro' lone nights and long days 
 Sorrow hath naught to bind her, 
 Yet sadly stays. 
 
 in. 
 Ah, tell me, sister, truly, 
 Is sorrow kind ? 
 Doth she not sadly bind, 
 That, coming, love may duly 
 Due welcome find?
 
 A SERENADE. 
 
 i. 
 
 In the sad starlight 
 
 Vigil I keep; 
 By the glad starlight 
 
 Sweet, my love, sleep ! 
 Chill is the night, love, 
 
 Sad without thee; 
 Hast thou in sleep, love, 
 
 One sigh for me? 
 
 ii. 
 Soft are thy lips, love, 
 
 Sweet is thy hreath ; 
 Hard is thy heart, love, 
 
 Bitter is death; 
 Yet sweet is bitter, 
 
 Bitter is sweet; 
 Soft is death's litter 
 
 Laid at thy feet.
 
 51 
 
 in. 
 In the sad dawning 
 
 Vigil I keep; 
 All the glad morning 
 
 Sweet, my love, sleep ! 
 Gather thy tresses 
 
 Of gold* to thy breast; 
 Grey morning presses, 
 
 I haste to my rest. 
 
 IV. 
 
 Fold thine arms close, love ; 
 
 Sadly I wend, 
 Sighing for thee, love, 
 
 Unto my end ; 
 Sighing for thee, love, 
 
 All the sad night, 
 Dying for thee, love, 
 
 In the grey light.

 ENGLISH LYEICS.
 
 A FRAGMENT. 
 
 i. 
 
 Why not reminded be of hours so brief 
 
 And glorious ? 
 Dwells not a beauty in the Autumn leaf? 
 And over memory's lingering joy is grief 
 
 Victorious ? 
 
 II. 
 
 Is there no meaning in the having been 
 
 Once bless' d? 
 Can winter leaves still hold a summer green? 
 Or think you ancient wrongs have never been 
 
 Redress' d ? 
 
 in. 
 
 Doth not joy linger in the silver cones 
 
 Of mountains ? 
 Which gleam in sunlight of the western zones 
 While o'er the plain night sweeps with all its moans 
 
 Of fountains?
 
 WATER-TONES. 
 
 i. 
 The still sad town oppresses me ; 
 The Minster bell beats on my brain 
 Its monotone of ancient pain; 
 But here, the low sweet sobbing of the rivulet 
 blesses me. 
 
 ii. 
 brooklet, sob, and sigh, and fret; 
 Lone Miasotis dips her blue, 
 The bracken rusts with Autumn dew, 
 And all things droop and wear the tearful aspect 
 of regret. 
 
 in. 
 brooklet, babble on in sorrow; 
 Garrulous was thy ripple of yore, 
 When young love stirr'd the heart's fresh core, 
 And young life wore from Spring to Summer. 
 Babble on in sorrow.
 
 66 
 
 IV. 
 
 Tell out thy tale of hearts unblest, 
 Of hands that cling to faded flowers, 
 Or wrestle with the hopeless hours; 
 For in the deep eternal these and thou shalt 
 be at rest.
 
 ON REVIENT TOTJJOURS.' 
 
 Teabs are dry, old vows are broken, 
 
 Dost forget? 
 Were those mute vows never spoken. 
 
 Eyes ne'er wet ? 
 
 Clings the grey mist to the mountain 
 
 As before? 
 Shrills the mavis by the fountain 
 
 As of yore? 
 
 Doth the perfumed rose still charm thee, 
 
 Or frail musk? 
 Night-dews were not wont to harm thee 
 
 In the dusk.
 
 68 
 
 Come and hear the rain-drop patter 
 
 In the brook: 
 Come; faint moonbeams will not flatter 
 
 Thy wan look. 
 
 Come; a faded flower shall greet thee 
 
 Past its bloom : 
 Come; a once glad step shall meet thee 
 
 In the gloom. 
 
 Still the myriad chafer humming 
 
 In deep shade : 
 Hark, I hear soft footsteps coming 
 
 Down the glade. 
 
 Who is this that cometh sadly 
 
 Down the glade? 
 Peace, fond heart, that boundest madly 
 
 In deep shade!
 
 69 
 
 Love, thy cheek and brow are pallid, 
 
 Cold thy breath : 
 Would that vows once breathed were valid 
 
 Unto death ! 
 
 All thy vows they said were broken ; 
 
 Bitter jest ! 
 Nearer, love ; I see my token 
 
 In thy breast. 
 
 Nearer, love; thine eyes are filling; 
 
 Dost thou fear? 
 Simple faith strong doubt is killing 
 
 With a tear. 
 
 Nearer to my breast she clingeth 
 
 Than before : 
 Fairer tints the fair dawn bringcth 
 
 Than of yore.
 
 'ON REVIENT TOUJOURS.' 
 II. 
 
 i. 
 Hast thou forgotten 
 
 Thine ancient vow? 
 Wilt thou recal it? 
 
 Recal it now. 
 Others have told me, 
 
 Come tell me thou, 
 Hast thou forgotten 
 
 Thine ancient vow ? 
 
 ii. 
 Others have told me, 
 
 Come, let me hear ; 
 Put thy sweet lips, love, 
 
 Close to mine ear; 
 Softly, not sadly, 
 
 No, not a tear; 
 Grief cometh gladly 
 
 If thou art near.
 
 71 
 
 in. 
 Are thine arms round me 
 
 Tenderly, now ? 
 Hath a spell bound me, 
 
 Or is it thou ? 
 If it be thou, love, 
 
 Come tell me now, 
 Hast thou forgotten 
 
 Thine ancient vow?

 ii. 
 
 blossom still by lonely rill ; 
 And round my lady's bower, 
 Uplift thy little voice, sweet flower, 
 
 And murmur still, 
 ' Forget-me-not.'
 
 73 
 
 in. 
 
 whisper to her in day dreams ; 
 And where she walks demurely 
 Gaze up into her pure eyes purely, 
 By crystal streams, 
 ' Forget-me-not' ! 
 
 IV. 
 
 grow about her dainty feet 
 
 By water- courses lonely, 
 
 And murmur thou thy sweet name, only 
 Than hers less sweet, 
 
 ' Forget-me-not' !

 The Tempest. 
 
 I. 
 
 No bud for thy bosom to-day, dear, 
 No wreath for thy lily-brow; 
 
 The white Lily droops in the vale, dear, 
 The red Rose fails on the bough ; 
 
 ii. 
 Her frail petals languish and droop, dear; 
 
 Lost is the tint that I seek; 
 The crimson has past to thy lip, dear, 
 
 The bloom to thy sunny cheek.
 
 75 
 
 in. 
 
 The Columbine pales in the wood, dear, 
 The frail Harebell on the wold ; 
 
 Thine eyes pale not, and thy locks, dear, 
 Like the trees, are strew' d with gold. 
 
 IV. 
 
 Sweet Summer has past with the bloom, dear, 
 
 Of flower and blossom and tree, 
 Fair memory lightens the gloom, dear, 
 
 With glimpses of those and of thee.
 
 HOMEWARD - BOUND. 
 
 i. 
 So late : past hope : it cannot be : 
 So many weary years at sea, 
 The wanderer doubts if that can be — 
 That dim blue line — reality; 
 Or if the horizon mock his sight 
 "With feint of land, at fading light 
 Of dying day, with hope too bright 
 To cheer him thro' the gloom of night, 
 And dawn upon the morrow still serene and bright. 
 
 ii. 
 Past hope : tho' weary eyes may pale, 
 And heart must sink, before the veil 
 Of envious night, which yields too slowly 
 Her place to sunrise calm and holy ;
 
 77 
 
 At early dawn that purple line 
 lleveals a wished-for realm of pine 
 That climb steep cliffs which glance and shine 
 And lave their feet in sunlit brine : 
 So, love, a dawn past hope, your eyes reveal to 
 mine.

 The Publishers have been induced, by the scarcity and increas- 
 ing value of this admired Series of the Poets, to prepare a New 
 Edition, very carefully corrected, and improved by such additions 
 as recent literary research has placed within their reach. 
 
 The general principle of Editing which has been adopted is to 
 give the entire Poems of each author in strict conformity with the Edition 
 which received his final revision, to prefix a Memoir, and to add such 
 notes as may be necessary to elucidate the sense of obsolete words or ex- 
 plain obscure allusions. Each author will be placed in the hands of 
 a competent editor specially acquainted with the literature and 
 bibliography of the period. 
 
 Externally this new edition will resemble the former, but with 
 some improvements. It will be elegantly printed by Whitting- 
 ham, on toned paper manufactured expressly for it ; and a highly- 
 finished portrait of each author will be given. 
 
 The Aldine Edition of the British Poets has hitherto been the 
 favourite Series with the admirers of choice books, and every 
 effort will be made to increase its claims as a comprehensive and 
 faithful mirror of the poetic genius of the nation.

 Mrs. Gatty is facile princeps in the art of. writing for the young. She is to 
 the altered tastes of this generation almost what Miss Edgeworth was to 
 the last. And we have the rare satisfaction of knowing that Mrs. Gatty's

 tary. ' Melchior's Dream ' is the production of the veritable ' Aunt Judy' 
 herself, and the very pretty illustrations which adorn it are from the pencil

 Though the circulation of Dr. Webster's celebrated Dictionary, in its 
 various forms, in the United States, in England, and in every country 
 where the English Language is spoken, may be counted by hundreds of 
 thousands, it is believed that there are many persons to whom the book 
 is yet unknown, and who, if seeking for a Dictionary which should supply 
 all reasonable wants, would be at a loss to select one from the numerous 
 competitors in the field. 
 
 In announcing this New Edition, the Proprietors desire to call attention 
 to the features which distinguish it, and to put before those who are in 
 want of such a book, the points in which it excels all other Dictionaries, 
 and which render it the best that has as yet been issued for the practical 
 purposes of daily use : — 
 
 1. Accuracy of Definition. 2. Pronunciation intelligibly marked. 3. 
 Completeness. 4. Etymology. 5. Obsolete Words. 6. Uniformity in the 
 Mode of Spelling. 7. Quotations. 8. Cheapness. 
 
 With the determination that the superiority of the work shall be fully 
 maintained, and that it shall keep pace with the requirements of the age 
 and the universal increase of education, the Proprietors have added to 
 this New Edition, under the editorship of Professor Goodrich, — 
 
 A Table of Synonyms. An Appendix of New Words. Table of Quota- 
 tions, Words, Phrases, &c. 
 Tables of Interest, enlarged and Improved ; calculated at Five 
 per Cent.; Showing at one view the Interest of any Sum, from £1 to

 Interest, from one to 12 months, and from two to 13 years. Also Tables 
 for calculating Commission on Sales of Goods or Banking Accounts, from

 This series is intended to supply fur the use of Schools and Students cheap 
 and accurate editions of the Classics, which shall be superior in mechanical 
 execution to the small German editions now current in this country, and more 
 convenient in form. 
 
 The texts of the Bibliotheca Classica and Grammar School Classics, so far 
 as they have been published, will be adopted. These editions have taken 
 their place amongst scholars as valuable contributions to the Classical Litera- 
 ture of this country, and are admitted to be good examples of the judicious 
 and practical nature of English scholarship ; and as the editors have formed 
 their texts from a careful examination of the best editions extant, it is believed 
 that no texts better lor general use can be found. 
 
 The volumes will be well printed at the Cambridge University Press, in u 
 16mo. size, and will be issued at short intervals.

 ILARKE'S COMMERCIAL COPY-BOOKS. 
 Price Ad. A liberal allowance to Schools and 
 Colleges. 
 The First Copt-Book contains elementary turns, with a broad 
 mark like a T, which divides a well-formed turn into two equal parts. This 
 exercise enables the learner to judge of form, distance, and proportion. 
 
 The Second contains large-hand letters, and the means by which such 
 letters may be properly combined ; the joinings in writing being probably as 
 difficult to learn as the form of each character. This book also gives the whole 
 alphabet, not in separate letters, but rather as one word ; and, at the end of 
 the alphabet, the difficult letters are repeated so as to render the writing of the 
 pupil more thorough aud uniform. 
 
 The Third contains additional large-hand practice. 
 
 The Fourth contains large-hand words, commencing with unflourished 
 capitals; and the words being short, the capitals in question receive the 
 attention they demand. As Large, and Extra Large-text, to which the fingers 
 of the learner are not equal, have been dispensed with in this series, the 
 popular objection of having too many Copy-books for the pupil to drudge 
 through, is now fairly met. When letters are very large, the scholar cannot 
 compass them without stopping to change the position of his hand, which 
 destroys the freedom which such writing is intended to promote. 
 
 The Fifth contains the essentials of a useful kind of small-hand. There 
 are first, as in large-hand, five easy letters of the alphabet, forming four 
 copies, which of course are repeated. Then follows the remainder of the 
 alphabet, with the difficult characters alluded to. The letters in this hand, 
 especially the a, c, d, g, o, and q, are so formed that when the learner will 
 have to correspond, his writing will not appear stiff. The copies in this book 
 are not mere Large-hand reduced. 
 
 The Sixth contains small-hand copies, with instructions as to the manner 
 in which the pupil should hold his pen, so that when he leaves school he may 
 not merely have some facility in copying, but really possess the information 
 on the subject of writing which he may need at any future time. 
 
 The Seventh contains the foundation for a style of small-hand, adapted to 
 females, moderately pointed. 
 
 The Eighth contains copies for females; and the holding of the pen is, of 
 course, the subject to which they specially relate. 
 
 This Series is specially adapted for those who are preparing for a commercial 
 life. It is generally found when a boy leaves school that his writing is of such 
 a character tfuit it is some months before it is available for book-keeping or 
 accounts. The specud object of this Series of Copy-Books is to form his ivriting 
 in such a style that he may be put to the work of a counting-house at once. By 
 following flux course from the first the writing is kept free and legible, whilst it 
 avoids unnecessary flourishing. 
 
 Specimens of hand-writing after a short course may be seen on application tv 
 the J^ubliskers.
 
 BELL AND DALDY'S 
 
 SOCKET MOLUMES. 
 
 A SERIES OF SELECT WORKS OF 
 FAVOURITE AUTHORS. 
 
 HE intention of the Publishers is to produce a Series of 
 Volumes adapted for general reading, moderate in price, 
 compact and elegant in form, and executed in a style 
 fitting them to be permanently preserved. 
 
 They do not profess to compete with the so-called cheap volumes. 
 They believe that a cheapness which is attained by the use of 
 inferior type and paper, and absence of editorial care, and which 
 results in volumes that no one cares to keep, is a false cheapness. 
 They desire rather to produce books superior in quality, and 
 relatively as cheap. 
 
 Each volume will be carefully revised by a competent editor, 
 and printed at the Chiswick Press, on fine paper, with new type, 
 and ornaments and initial letters specially designed for the series. 
 
 The Pocket Volumes will include all classes of Literature, both 
 copyright and non-copyright ; — Biography, History, Voyages, 
 Travels, Poetry, sacred and secular, Books of Adventure and 
 Fiction. They will include Translations of Foreign Books, and 
 also such American Literature as may be considered worthy of 
 adoption. 
 
 The Publishers desire to respect the moral claims of authors 
 who cannot secure legal copyright in this country, and to re- 
 munerate equitably those whose works they may reprint. 
 
 The books will be issued at short intervals, in paper covers, at 
 
 various prices, from Is. to 3s. 6r/., and in cloth, top edge gilt, at 
 
 6rf. per volume extra, in half morocco, Roxburgh style, at Is. 
 
 extra, in antique or best plain morocco (Hayday), at 4s. extra.
