LYRA MEMORIALIS: Original Epitaphs and Churchyard Thoughts. In Verse.
By JOSEPH SNOW. With an Essay, by WILLIAM WORDSWORTH. Reprinted by his
permission. A new Edition, remodelled and enlarged.

"The object of Mr. Snow in the volume before us is to suggest
a purer taste and a more impressive style in our churchyard
memorials, and by every word and thought to point through the
shadow of the tomb to the brightness and light beyond it. His
work is, in truth, a treasury of feeling, and we find in its
simplicity its highest merit. To the clergy this volume may be
of signal use."--_Theologian_.

"This is truly a book of the affections; there is scarcely
a page which will not touch tenderly a chord in the heart of
every reader."--_Church of England Quarterly_.
