These Poems, now first printed, are all on the side of King Charles I. and against the Roundheads, It is a curious circumstance that though they were entered in The Stationer's Registers (11th October, 1638) as "Master George Daniell's Poems,' as if about to be published, they seem never to have gone through the press till 1878. It is not impossible that the violence of their Royalist leanings may have had somewhat to do, even at that time, with their apparent non-publication.

LORD VERNON'S GRAND PRIVATELY-PRINTED EDITION.

DANTE ALIGHIERI, L'INFERNO, disposto in Ordine Grammaticale e corredato di brevi Dichiarazioni da G. G. WARREN Lord Vernon, finely printed, and illustrated by the photographed portrait of Dante, drawn from the original of Giotto by Seymour Kirkup, and traced on the fresco before it was retouched; portrait of Lord Vernon; maps, genea logical tables, 102 sheets of armorial bearings, and 112 plates, 3 vols. folio, half bound, uncut (extremely rare), £35. Firenze, 1858-65

This magnificent and valuable edition was printed for presents only. As the distribution of copies was made with great discrimination to parties in whose possession they were long likely to remain, their appearance in the market must be of the rarest possible occurrence: only one other copy than the above has ever been offered for sale.

In these volumes (says a writer in Fraser's Magazine, Vol. 79), the late Lord Vernon has left the most sumptuous of his many and important contributions to the illustration of Dante, and the work is unquestionably one of the very finest that has ever been privately printed. It is at once a tribute rendered to the great Poet-who indeed wants no further honour-a valuable addition to the means of studying his text and of comprehending his times and the scenes among which he lived, and now a worthy monument, in addition to others of the same kind, to the memory of the accomplished nobleman whose position enabled him to gratify so well his own literary tastes, and to communicate, for the benefit of others, the fruits of his long devotion to the poetry of the famous Florentine. The final editorial labours have been bestowed on the present edition of The Inferno by SIR JAMES LACAITA.

CONTENTS of Vol. 1: THE POEM, with a paraphrastic Interpretation or translation of hard places in Italian prose, the explanatory words being in Italic type; also Critical and Explanatory Notes; a Cosmography of Dante, indispensable for understanding the wonderful journey through Hell, Purgatory, and Paradise; and an elaborate chronological List of Editions of Dante, or of illustrative works down to the year 1850.

CONTENTS of Vol. 2: A most valuable and important collection of Original Documents and of Historical and Biographical Matter, comprising an elaborate Life, the full text of the Sentences passed on him, etc., an interesting Literary Chronology from the Sixth to the Thirteenth Century; and Tables of Contemporary History from 1250 to 1320 (which are of great value to readers of Dante as keeping before them the full historical meaning of all he says); a Map of Italy, showing its political distribution in the time of Dante; a full account of the Constitution of Florence, and of its ancient Topography and Public Buildings, and of its Commercial Guilds; and finally, Historical Notices of every Family mentioned in the "Divina Commedia," or connected in any way with Dante, illustrated by their respective Arms, to which allusion is so often made in the poem.

CONTENTS of Vol. 3: 66 The Album," devoted to Pictorial Illustrations-accompanied by short explanatory portions of letterpress-presenting as many as possible of the Places and Buildings mentioned in the "Inferno," founded on daguerreotype views taken expressly for the work. Very eminent artists, both English and Italian, have contributed to the designing and engraving of these plates, and the result is a folio volume of subjects of singular interest and beauty. Included are a few lines of the wail of Francesca of Rimini set to music by Rossini, with the original score given in facsimile from the musician's autograph; besides other interesting plates.
