I X -C I C E R O. 



By THE Editor. 



' ' No charm of style, no facility and eloquence of illustration, is 

 wanting to enable us to see the great Roman advocate, statesman, and 

 orator, in the days of Rome's grandem', in the time of her first fatal 

 hastening to her decadence, with whom fell her liberty two thousand 

 years ago. The first lines of introduction to this fascinating boolj are 

 full of help and Ught to the student of the classical times who has not 

 mastered the classical literature, and in whose interests this book is 

 done, simply to perfection." — Saunders' News-Letter. 



X.-SOPHOCLES. 



By Clifton W. Collins, M.A. 



' ' Sophocles has now been added to the acceptable and singularly 

 equal series of ' Ancient Classics for English Readers.' Mr Collins 

 shows great skill and judgment in analysing and discriminating the 

 plays of the sweet singer of Colonus." — Guardian. 



XI-PLINY'S LETTERS. 



By the Rev. Alfred Church, M.A., and 

 The Rev. W. J. Brodribb, M.A. 



' * This is one of the best volumes of the series called ' Ancient Classics 

 for English Readers.' . . . This graceful little volume will introduce 

 Pliny to many who have hitha"to known nothing of the Silver Age." — 

 AthencBum. 



" Mr Lucas Collins's very useful and popular series has afforded a fit 

 opportunity for a sketch of the life and writings of the younger Pliny ; 

 and the writers of the volume before us have contrived, out of their 

 intimate and complete familiarity with their subject, to place the man, 

 his traits of character, his friends, and his surroundings so vividly before 

 us, that a hitherto shadowy acquaintance becomes a distinct and real 

 personage." — Saturday Review. 



Xll.-E u R I P I D E s. 



By W. B. Donne. 



' ' This is the twelfth instalment of this admirably conducted series, and 

 one of the very best that has yet appeared." — Belts Weekly Messenger. 



XIII.-JUVENAL. 



By Edward Walford, M.A. 

 "This is one of the best executed volumes of the whole series of 

 ' Ancient Classics, ' and exhibits Mr Walford's critical powers in a very 

 favourable light." — Pall Mall Gazette. 



XIV.-ARISTOPHANES. 



• By the Editor. 



"There has been no work yet published which brings the Greek 

 comedian better within the comprehension of the average English- 

 man."— ^^awrfa^-if.
