"We hail the publication of this work as a valuable addition to our literature. With an elegant and graceful dedication to our young and interesting Queen, the volume consists of original poems, distinguished for beauty of thought, expressed in language classic and polished; and of translations rarely equalled for fidelity and vigour. The Death of Demosthenes is indeed a noble subject, nobly executed. We have now done our most arduous but pleasing task, to review the finest poems which have appeared for many years. In this utilitarian age of steam and vapour, when, whilst we are going on with our rail-roads, we are going back in our learning, it is rare to find a mind which can think with and emulate the ancients-give a new charm to classic literature-call forth the mighty spirits of Greece-bring them, with all their eloquence and genius, before us-create with themcopy after them. Mr. Fox, therefore, deserves our commendation, and merits our gratitude for his classical volume of poems; for nothing perfect in eloquence, nothing perfect in poetry, can be produced, unless we love, study, and imitate the great masters of thought and taste the ancients

The classical is another name for the beautiful, and Mr. Fox's volume must charm all, except the ignorant without learning, and the learned without taste."-Dublin Review.
