Selections from the Poetical Works of the late Mortimer Collins,

Made by F. PERCY COTTON.

The number of copies is limited to 500

(each numbered), printed upon hand-made paper. In demy 8vo. 10s. 6d. A very charming volume is made of "Selections from the Poetical Works of Mortimer Collins," by Mr. Percy Cotton, of which a very limited edition is published by Messrs. Bentley and Son. Many of the best poems were discovered in magazines and newspapers, and the series of fragments which Collins used to quote from an imaginary "Comedy of Dreams," and place at the head of chapters in his novels, are carefully collected and arranged. They are full of real and delicate humour.'-SATURDAY REVIEW.

"This is a book to buy, a book to read, a book to keep, and (before the 500 copies are all sold) a book to give away. Mr. Percy Cotton deserves the sincerest thanks for collecting these joyous, tuneful, simple, and manly poems,'-DAILY NEWS.
