CAIN: 



A DEAMATIC POEM. 



"The writer of this poem is the same Charles Boner whose book on 

 'Chamois Hunting' has delighted many readers. . . . The poem is 

 marked by no little vigour of thought and variety of feeling. What 

 Mr. Boner has written is good, and very different in spirit from what 

 wTiters of the Byron school would have made out of the subject." 



LlTEEAEY GrAZETTE. 



" At times the diction has great vigour and purity ; and the influence 

 of mountain scenery on the restless and impassioned mind of Cain is 

 well described." Westminstee Eeview.

THE NEW DANCE OF DEATH, 



AND OTHEE POEMS. 



" In the principal of these poems there is great power and origi- 

 nality. Death is personified with a boldness often highly poetical." 



Dublin Eeview. 



" There is no writer of verse at the present day whose works are im- 

 bued with a healthier tone and purer spirit than Charles Boner. His 

 language is unaffected, vigorous, and pure, — at times full of strength 

 and power ; at others, replete with tenderness and melody. The last 

 poem which Mr. Boner published was, we believe, his ' Cain,' a masterly 

 production in conception, and beautiful in versification. We have now 

 before us a shorter work, of less pretensions, but scarcely less beauty. 

 It is a moving picture, or rather a succession of pictures, all connected 

 by one thread, ah illustrating one pervading thought, and that thought 

 a high and noble one— the vindication of the ways of Providence to man 

 in the happier views of death, which are here beautifully contrasted 

 with the painful, gloomy, and unworthy notions ordinarily entertained. 

 We strongly call attention to the merits of this little work."
