Chaucer for Schools.

By Mrs. HAWEIS, Author of " Chaucer for Children."

This is a copious and judicious selection from Chaucer's Tales, with full notes on the history, manners, customs, and language of the fourteenth century, with marginal glossary and a literal poetical version in modern English in parallel columns with the original poetry. Six of the Canterbury Tales are thus presented, in sections of from 10 to 200 lines, mingled with prose narrative. "Chaucer for Schools" is issued to meet a widely-expresed want, and is especially adapted for class instruction. It may be profitably studied in connection with the maps and illustrations of "Chaucer for Children."

"A comprehensive and highly valuable book of reference. rarely failed to find in this book an account of an article of dress, while in most of the entries curious and instructive details are given. Mr. Planche's enormous labour of love, the production of a text which, whether in its dictionary form or in that of the General History,' is within its intended scope immeasurably the best and richest work on Costume in English. This book is not only

one of the most readable works of the kind, but intrinsically attractive and amusing."-ATHENÆUM.

"A most readable and interesting work-and it can scarcely be consulted in vain, whether the reader is in search for information as to military, court, ecclesiastical, legal, or professional costume. All the chromo-lithographs,

and most of the woodcut illustrations—the latter amounting to several thousands -are very elaborately executed; and the work forms a livre de luxe which renders it equally suited to the library and the ladies' drawing-room."-TIMES.
