THE ÆNEID OF VIRGIL.

Translated in English Blank Verse by G. K. RICKARDS, M.A., and Lord RAVENSWORTH. 2 vols. fcap. 8vo, 10s.

"Lord Ravensworth's success and strength are to be found, not so much in his verbal force as in the Virgilian spirit which breathes throughout his lines. No English reader can well miss their poetical grace and vigour; no scholar will deem unfaithful the clean-cut, decisive lines of this masterly version."Evening Standard.

OF OVID. Translated in

English Blank Verse. By HENRY KING, M.A., Fellow of Wadham College, Oxford, and of the Inner Temple, Barrister-at-Law. Crown 8vo, 10s. 6d.

"An excellent translation."—Athenæum. "The execution is admirable.

It is but scant and inadequate praise

to say of it that it is the best translation of the Metamorphoses that we have." -Observer.

into English Verse, with Life of the Poet, and Illustrative Notes. By JAMES CRANSTOUN, LL.D., &c., Author of a Translation or 'Catullus.' In crown 8vo, 6s. 6d.

THE ELEGIES OF SEXTUS

PROPERTIUS.

Trans

lated into English Verse. By the SAME. In crown 8vo, 7s. 6d. "In Mr Cranstoun's work free play is given to the poet's mood and tone at the time of writing, and a sound judgment is shown for the most part in the forms chosen to render passionate and pathetic love elegies, on the one hand, and archæological poems on Roman history and mythology, such as those of his later years, on the other. The result cannot fail to be a wider acquaintance with and appreciation of the Umbrian bard."-Saturday Review. THE ODES, EPODES, AND SATIRES OF HORACE. Translated into English Verse, together with a Life of Horace, by THEODORE MARTIN. New Edition. Post 8vo, 9s.
