"_Mrs. Webster has shown us that she is able to draw admirably from the
life; that she can observe with subtlety, and render her observations with
delicacy; that she can impersonate complex conceptions, and venture into

MY BEAUTIFUL LADY. By THOMAS WOOLNER. With a Vignette by _Arthur Hughes_.
_Third Edition_. Fcap. 8vo. 5_s_.

"_It is clearly the product of no idle hour, but a highly-conceived and
faithfully-executed task, self-imposed, and prompted by that inward
yearning to utter great thoughts, and a wealth of passionate feeling which
is poetic genius. No man can read this poem without being struck by the
fitness and finish of the workmanship, so to speak, as well as by the
chastened and unpretending loftiness of thought which pervades the
whole_." _Globe_.

WORDS FROM THE POETS. Selected by the Editor of "Rays of Sunlight." With a
Vignette and Frontispiece. 18mo. Extra cloth gilt, 2_s. 6d_. _Cheaper
Edition_, 18mo. limp., 1_s_.
