What had he done to make him fly the land?
What is life, father?' 'A battle, my child.
What sport shall we devise here in this garden?
Whate'er my God ordains is right

When Britain first, at Heaven's command
When first thine eyes unveil, give thy soul leave
When I consider how my light is spent

When I have seen by Time's fell hand defaced
When Music, heavenly maid, was young

When sycamore leaves wer a-spreadèn

Who is the happy Warrior? Who is he
Who's there? What, my young master!
Why did you leave me here alone, my lords?
Why look the distant mountains

Why looks your grace so heavily to-day? .
Will the king come, that may breathe my last

With fingers weary and worn

With little here to do or see.

Yet once more, O ye laurels, and once more
You know we French stormed Ratisbon
You know your own degrees; sit down; at first

Yes! hope may with my strong desire keep pace

"The principle of selection here is not one chiefly of personal taste, but experience; she has formed it on the strength of a careful induction of children's tastes; not, in fact, left to themselves, but guided by a light hand, that directs rather than controls;' in other words, of children's tastes under the influence of her personal preferences... Anyhow it is a very good and wholesome taste, refined, but not too refined for ordinary children."-Spectator.

NEW ROLLIN.

AN ANCIENT HISTORY, from the EARLIEST TIMES to the FALL OF THE WESTERN EMPIRE: forming the First Period of the "History of the World." By PHILIP SMITH, B.A., One of the Principal Contributors to Dr. Smith's Classical Dictionaries. Complete in 3 vols. 8vo., with Maps and Plans, cloth lettered, 42s.

For the first time in English literature, the reader has before him, in the moderate compass of Three Volumes, a complete ANCIENT HISTORY, from the Creation of the World to the Fall of the Western Empire of Rome, treated as a continuous narrative, and with unity of purpose. Besides its place in the whole scheme of the History of the World, this division may be regarded as forming a complete and independent work, which may occupy the place once filled by the Ancient History of Rollin.

"The style of the volumes is sustained with the equal tone of a single, able, unimpassioned and dignified historian throughout.”—Â thenæum.

"Which ought, we consider, to find a place in every School Library, and indeed it is difficult to say what Library will not be the better for it. All that our respected old Rollin tried to do, and did not do, this clear and most wonderfully compassed summary must be admitted to have done, and a great deal more besides. It is always careful, always well written, often warms into the steady heat of a real living interest, and is pervaded with a profound belief in the Providential guidance of all the events of history."-Literary Churchman.

"The three volumes of the present work now published may be considered as forming a complete and independent text-book of Ancient History, well fitted to occupy the place once filled by the Ancient History of Rollin."-Educational Times.

It is intended to convey, in clear and precise terms, general notions of all the principal divisions of Physical Science, illustrated largely by diagrams. These diagrams exhibit the forms and arrangement of apparatus, and the manner of performing the most important experiments."-British Quarterly Review.
