This series of four volumes is intended primarily to afford 
college classes in English literature a convenient, inexpensive, 
and scholarly collection of the most important English poetry. 
The selections, so far as possible, are complete poems. The 
notes contain explanations of words and allusions; statements, 
by the poet or his friends that throw light on the poem; the 
poet’s theory of poetry; and extracts from contemporary criti- 
cism. The books are supplied with bibliographies, glossaries,and _ 
indices of authors, titles, and first lines. They are admirably 
suited to the needs of the general reader and the library, and for 
these a “library edition” has been prepared, containing the same 
material but with heavier paper and more ornate binding. The 
series as now completed takes its place as the best general 
collection of English poetry that has yet been offered at a reason- 
able price. ;
