THE SOUL OF LILITH. _Tenth Edition._

BARABBAS: A DREAM OF THE WORLD'S
TRAGEDY. _Thirty-sixth Edition._
'The tender reverence of the treatment and the
imaginative beauty of the writing have
reconciled us to the daring of the conception,
and the conviction is forced on us that even so
exalted a subject cannot be made too familiar
to us, provided it be presented in the true
spirit of Christian faith. The amplifications
of the Scripture narrative are often conceived
with high poetic insight, and this "Dream of
the World's Tragedy" is a lofty and not
inadequate paraphrase of the supreme climax of
the inspired narrative.'--_Dublin Review._
THE SORROWS OF SATAN. _Forty-Fourth
Edition._
'A very powerful piece of work.... The conception
is magnificent, and is likely to win an abiding
place within the memory of man.... The author
has immense command of language, and a
limitless audacity.... This interesting and
remarkable romance will live long after much of
the ephemeral literature of the day is
forgotten.... A literary phenomenon ... novel,
and even sublime.'--W. T. STEAD in the _Review
of Reviews_.
THE MASTER CHRISTIAN.
[_160th Thousand._
'It cannot be denied that "The Master Christian"
is a powerful book; that it is one likely to
raise uncomfortable questions in all but the
most self-satisfied readers, and that it
strikes at the root of the failure of the
Churches--the decay of faith--in a manner which
shows the inevitable disaster heaping up....
The good Cardinal Bonpré is a beautiful figure,
fit to stand beside the good Bishop in "Les
Misérables".... The chapter in which the
Cardinal appears with Manuel before Leo XIII.
is characterised by extraordinary realism and
dramatic intensity.... It is a book with a
serious purpose expressed with absolute
unconventionality and passion.... And this is
to say it is a book worth
reading.'--_Examiner._

fine literary method is a keen pleasure.'--_The
