Selected and arranged by _Coventry Patmore_. "_It includes specimens of all the great masters in the art of poetry, selected with the matured judgment of a man concentrated on obtaining insight into the feelings and tastes of childhood, and desirous to awaken its finest impulses, to cultivate its keenest sensibilities."_--_Morning Post_. THE BOOK OF PRAISE. ------------------- From the Best English Hymn Writers. Selected and arranged by _Sir Roundell Palmer_. _A New and Enlarged Edition_. "_All previous compilations of this kind must undeniably for the present give place to the Book of Praise.... The selection has been made throughout with sound judgment and critical taste. The pains involved in this compilation must have been immense, embracing, as it does, every writer of note in this special province of English literature, and ranging over the most widely divergent tracts of religious thought."_--_Saturday Review_. |
