LILLIAN, AND OTHER POEMS.

By Winthrop Mackworth Praed. Now first Collected. One
Volume 12mo. Price One Dollar.

"A timely publication is this volume. A more charming companion (in the shape of
a book) can scarcely be found for the summer holydays."

—New York Tribune.

"They are amusing sketches, gay and sprightly in their character, exhibiting great
facility of composition, and considerable powers of satire."

—Hartford Courant.

"There is a brilliant play of fancy in `Lillian,' and a moving tenderness in `Josephine,'
for which it would be hard to find equals. We welcome, therefore, this first collected
edition of his works."

—Albany Express.

"As a writer of vers de societe he is pronounced to be without an equal among English
authors."

—Syracuse Daily Journal.

"The author of this volume was one of the most fluent and versatile English poets that
have shone in the literary world within the last century. His versification is astonishingly
easy and airy, and his imagery not less wonderfully graceful and aerial."

—Albany
