Written in the approved modern _Vers de Societie_ style, with a singular
mixture of wit and deep feeling. Many of the verses would not be
disowned by Praed, the master-genius of witty verse, or by Calverly, who
wrote "Fly Leaves," a few years back.--_Boston Advertiser._
Bret Harte created quite a sensation in London society by reading these
verses in manuscript.--_N. Y. Pub. Weekly._
The books contain some of the lightest and brightest bits of verse it
has lately been our good fortune to lead.--_The Critic._
