SOUTHEY'S COMMONPLACE-BOOK.

Edited by Mr. Southey's Son-in-Law, the Rev. John Wood Warter,
B.D. Second Series, being SPECIAL COLLECTIONS, and forming a Volume
complete in itself.

"This volume [SPECIAL COLLECTIONS] is a monument of industry
such as few could pile, and affords striking evidence of the
indomitable perseverance and varied learning of Southey....
The oftener we dip into these massive pages, the profounder
grows our surprise that such a mass of information could
have been thrown together by one man.... It is just the book
to dive into for the spare half hour, assured of finding
amusement and information in every page.... The index is so
ample and well arranged, that any particular paragraph may be
turned to without difficulty. Altogether it is a massive and
elegant volume, got up without regard to expense, and as well
adapted for the shelves of the mechanic's library, as for the
study-table of the literary man."--_Eclectic Review_.

Also a New Edition, in One Volume, price 18s.
