history of the Roman law so clear, and, at the same time, so
short.... More improving reading, both for the general student and

among learned professional men, who will not gather some novel
information from Lord Mackenzie's simple pages."--_London Review._

fit her for painting a historical gallery of the most illustrious

song."--_Blackwood's Magazine._

degree of judgment and taste not always found in works of a similar

"We certainly never saw a more damaging exposure, and it is
something worth notice that much of it appeared in 'Blackwood's
Magazine' during the lifetime of Lord Macaulay, but he never
attempted to make any reply. The charges are so direct, and urged
in such unmistakable language, that no writer who valued his
character for either accuracy of fact or fairness in comment would
let them remain unanswered if he had any reason to
give."--_Gentleman's Magazine._

and manners that has been given to the public since the days of Sir
Walter Scott. In bestowing upon it this high praise, we make no
exception, not even in favour of Lord Cockburn's 'Memorials'--the
book which resembles it most, and which ranks next to it in
interest."--_Edinburgh Review._

"It is of the handiest of sizes; the paper is good; and the type,
which seems to be new, is very clear and beautiful. There are no
pictures. The whole charm of the presentment of the volume consists
in its handiness, and the tempting clearness and beauty of the
type, which almost converts into a pleasure the mere act of
following the printer's lines, and leaves the author's mind free to
exert its unobstructed force upon the reader."--_Examiner._

By JOHN HILL BURTON. New Edition. In crown 8vo, 7s. 6d.
"A book pleasant to look at and pleasant to read--pleasant from its
rich store of anecdote, its geniality, and its humour, even to
persons who care little for the subjects of which it treats, but
beyond measure delightful to those who are in any degree members of
the above-mentioned fraternity."--_Saturday Review._
"We have not been more amused for a long time: and every reader who
takes interest in typography and its consequences will say the
same, if he will begin to read; beginning, he will finish, and be
sorry when it is over."--_Athenaeum._
"Mr Burton has now given us a pleasant book, full of quaint
anecdote, and of a lively bookish talk. There is a quiet humour in
it which is very taking, and there is a curious knowledge of books
which is really very sound."--_Examiner._

Magazine.' 8vo, 10s. 6d.

And other Poems. By W. EDMONDSTOUNE AYTOUN, D.C.L., Professor of
Rhetoric and English Literature in the University of Edinburgh.
Twentieth Edition. Fcap. 8vo, 7s. 6d.
"Professor Aytoun's 'Lays of the Scottish Cavaliers'--a volume of
verse which shows that Scotland has yet a poet. Full of the true
fire, it now stirs and swells like a trumpet-note--now sinks in
cadences sad and wild as the wail of a Highland
dirge."--_Quarterly Review._

Scotland, and no Editor for these Ballads could be found more
accomplished than Professor Aytoun. He has sent forth two beautiful
volumes which range with 'Percy's Reliques'--which, for
completeness and accuracy, leave little to be desired--which must
henceforth be considered as the standard edition of the Scottish
Ballads, and which we commend as a model to any among ourselves who
may think of doing like service to the English
Ballads."--_Times._

L1, 19s.
"Mr Worsley,--applying the Spenserian stanza, that beautiful
romantic measure, to the most romantic poem of the ancient
world--making the stanza yield him, too (what it never yielded to
Byron), its treasures of fluidity and sweet ease--above all,
bringing to his task a truly poetical sense and skill,--has
produced a version of the 'Odyssey' much the most pleasing of those
hitherto produced, and which is delightful to read."--_Professor

of the language, by equally exquisite illustrations, all of which
