The sale of Five large Editions in India proves the reputation of these 

 famous Lays in their native land. Their fun^ satire, atid graphic deli7tea- 

 tion of character and adventure, are admirably sustained in the six new Lays 

 which the Author has added to the present edition. 



OPINIONS OF THE PRESS. 



Graphic. — "A 

 new and sumptuous 

 edition of ' Lays of 

 Ind,' by Aliph 

 Cheem, which owes 

 fresh attractions not 

 only to some clever 

 woodcuts with 

 which it is now em- 

 -^^ bellished, but to the 

 ^^ addition of six lays, 

 v- '/I which are quite 

 "-\f equal, in point of 

 \^.^^ merit, to those we 

 "^ ""' have already favour- 

 ably noticed." 



Illustrated Sport' 

 ing and Dramatic 

 News. — "A capital 

 collection of clever 

 ^ sprightly verses ad- 



-• "^- - mirably adapted to 

 serve the author's 

 modestly announced 

 intention, viz., that 

 of smilingly beguil- 

 ing an idle hour. 

 \\ e have enjoyed the book immensely. Some of the little vignette illustra- 

 tions deserve warm praise, and all of them are decidedly good."
