 Spring Morning,' which has somewhat of the

 noble assertion of man's resurrection." — Saturday

" A real advance on its predecessor, and con- 

 tains at least one poem ('The Organ Boy ') of 

 great originality, as well as many of much beauty 

 .... As exquisite a little poem as we have read 

 for many a day .... but not at all alone in its 

 power to fascinate." — Spectator. 



" Will be gratefully welcomed." — Examiner.

" A noble play. . . . The work of a true poet, 

 and of a fine artist, in whom tliere is nothing 

 vulgar and nothing weak. . . . We had no con- 

 ception, from our knowledge of Mr. Ue Vere's 

 former poems, that so mucli poetic power lay in

 of beauty, nervous as well as rich in thought." —
