A Collected Edition, in Five Volumes of THE POETICAL AND PROSE WORKS OF ROBERT BUCHANAN. V. WALLED IN, AND OTHER "The New Writer' is certainly no tyro. No one after reading the first two poems, almost perfect in rhythm and all the graceful reserve of true lyrical strength, can doubt that this book is the result of lengthened thought and assiduous training in poetical form. These poems will assuredly take high rank among the class to which they belong." British Quarterly Review, April 1st. - "No extracts could do justice to the exquisite tones, the felicitous phrasing and delicately wrought harmonies of some of these poems."-Nonconformist, March 27th. "Are we in this book making the acquaintance of a fine and original poet, or of a most artistic imitator? And our deliberate opinion is that the former hypothesis is the right one It has a purity and delicacy of feeling like morning air."-Graphic, March 16th. "If these poems are the mere preludes of a mind growing in power and in inclination for verse, we have in them the promise of a fine poet. The verse describing Socrates has the highest note of critical poetry."-Spectator, Feb. 17th. 65, Cornhill, and 12, Paternoster Row, London. Crown PATRICK, & OTHER POEMS. "We have marked, in almost every page, excellent touches from which we know not how to select. We have but space to commend the varied structure of his verse, the carefulness of his grammar, and his excellent English. All who believe that poetry should raise and not debase the social ideal, all who think that wit should exalt our standard of thought and manners, must welcome this contribution at once to our knowledge of the past and to the science of noble life.Saturday Review. XI. ASPROMONTE, AND OTHER POEMS. Second Edition, cloth, 4s. 6d. "The volume is anonymous; but there is no reason for the author to be ashamed of it. The 'Poems of Italy' are evidently inspired by genuine enthusiasm in the cause espoused; and one of them, 'The Execution of Felice Orsini,' has much poetic merit, the event celebrated being told with dramatic force."-Athenæum.
