Sold separately as follows
POEMS. 2 vols. $2.50 net. Half Morocco, $7.50 net. Photogravure Portrait. Postage and packing 20 cents.
The lover of poetry cannot fail to rejoice in this handsome edition.—Philadelphia Press.
A glow of inspiration that merits better than that of any living poet the high adjective, Vergilian.—New York Evening Post.
Work which will live, one may venture to say, as long as the language.—Philadelphia Public Ledger.
NEW POEMS. $1.50 net. Half Morocco, $5.00 net. Postage and packing 12 cents.
Contains "On Hearing Samaroff Play," "Vivisection," "Leopold of Belgium," "To Richard Watson Gilder," "To the Invincible Republic," "Sonnets to Miranda," and "The Woman With the Serpent's Tongue."
"To the Invincible Republic" is full of a generous and admiring appreciation. All of these poems are explicit, strong, and interesting.—New York Sun.
Times—William Watson is, above all things, an artist who is proud of his calling and conscientious in every syllable that he writes. To appreciate his work you must take it as a whole, for he is in line with the high priests of poetry, reared, like Ion, in the shadow of the Delphic presences and memories, and weighing every word of his utterance before it is given to the world.
Athenæum—His poetry is a "criticism of life," and, viewed as such, it is magnificent in its lucidity, its elegance, its dignity.... We revere and admire Mr. Watson's pursuit of a splendid ideal; and we are sure that his artistic self-mastery will be rewarded by a secure place in the ranks of our poets.... We may express our belief that Mr. Watson will keep his high and honorable station when many showier but shallower reputations have withered away, and must figure in any representative anthology of English poetry.... "Wordsworth's Grave" is, in our judgment, Mr. Watson's masterpiece ... its music is graver and deeper, its language is purer and clearer, than the frigid droning and fugitive beauties of the "Elegy in a Country Churchyard."
SABLE AND PURPLE. $1.25 net. Postage 10 cents.
Boston Transcript—Still the poet whose inspirational fantasy gives distinction to modern English Literature.
Spectator—A great artist, "Sable and Purple" is of a high excellence.

By Laurence Hope
The New York Commercial:
Its colors are elemental, silver and gold and red. It is heavy with the breath of citron groves, cool with the tinkling of temple bells, and the air of night, and the cries of wild peacocks and parrots.... In many ways this volume of translation is the most important contribution to poetry that the season has as yet brought forth.
The Baltimore Sun:
There is nothing stale or hackneyed in this book; newness, freshness, and variety are found on every page. These poems are true lyrics, for they give us true glimpses into the hearts of men.
The Chicago Tribune:
A volume of passionate love poems written by a true poet.
The Chicago Inter-Ocean:
They are in several metres, handled always with graceful ease, and often with intensity. The coloring is vivid and the music subtle. The book is redolent with the atmosphere of the Arabian Nights.
The Boston Evening Transcript:
Mr. Hope is a thorough artist to his fingertips, and his choice of words and images is as keen and exact as his ability to adapt Indian literature to the more prosaic mood and tongue of the Anglo-Saxon.
The Athenæum:
Mr. Hope has caught admirably the dominant notes of this Indian love poetry, its delirious absorption in the instant, its out-of-door air, its melancholy.
By Laurence Hope
The Washington Mirror:
The author has so completely infused the charm of the Orient into this volume that one is transported for the time and lost in the poetic beauty of his surroundings, finds no jarring chord nor is disposed to shrink from the frankness of this translation of oriental verse.
It is still a question whether these are direct translations or whether they are written in the Hindu style by Laurence Hope. Perhaps she has done for the Hindu poets what FitzGerald did for Omar.
The Conservator:
He seems to exhale an oriental atmosphere. He sings musically. I can follow the delicate strain by which Hope saves himself from stepping beyond the bounds of a vital reserve.
The New York Star:
The author is imbued with the glowing passion of Eastern romance.
The New York Globe:
The theme, in almost every instance love, is treated with feverish abandon.
THIRD EDITION
By KATRINA TRASK. Author of "Night and Morning," "Mors et Victoria," etc. Cloth, 12mo. $1.25 net. Postage 10 cents. With Colored Frontispiece reproducing the Jewel now at Oxford.
The English speaking world has waited a thousand years for a worthy dramatic impersonation of King Alfred. And here it is.... The play will stand not alone upon the grateful response it wins from the English national heart, but as a work of art.... The author is supremely a poet, the master of metaphor not less than of melody.... It is a play not only to be read but to be acted.... This vivid drama is not cast in the conventional classic mould. It is distinctly and wholly English in spirit and form, and intensely modern—but breathing the air of morning, of springtime, of fresh adventure.—Henry Mills Alden, The New York Times Saturday Review.
King Alfred's noble and vigorous character is limned with great skill, while Elfreda, a graceful and innocent maiden, flits through the play like a woodland fairy.—The Glasgow Evening News, Scotland.
The living Alfred lives in this gracious play, for the author has fashioned his great spirit out of the mist of time.—James Douglas, The Star, London.

In this volume we have a welcome gathering together of the principal poems issued by Mr. Arthur Christopher Benson during the past sixteen years.... In this new form his poems should make new friends.—London Daily Telegraph.

12mo Twelfth Edition $1.25 net
New York Times—Nothing finer has come to us from an English pen in the way of a poetic and literary play since the appearance of Taylor's "Philip van Artevelde."
Brooklyn Daily Eagle—It is not too much to say that "Paolo and Francesca" is the most important example of English dramatic poetry that has appeared since Browning died.
Philadelphia Press—"Paolo and Francesca" has beauty, passion, and power.... The poem deserves a wide reading on account of its intrinsic merit and interest.
HEROD: A Tragedy. By Stephen Phillips.
12mo Twenty-First Thousand $1.25 net
Times—Here, then, is a noble work of dramatic imagination dealing greatly with great passions; multicolored and exquisitely musical. Mr. Stephen Phillips is not only a poet, but that still rarer thing, a dramatic poet.
Mr. William Archer (in The World)—The elder Dumas speaking with the voice of Milton.

POEMS. By Stephen Phillips. Including "Marpessa" and "Christ in Hades."

Literature—No such remarkable book of verse as this has appeared for several years.

12mo
Leather, $1.50 net Cloth, $1.25 net
The Nation—An uncommonly masculine volume.
Chicago Record-Herald—What every admirer of this virile poet desires, a brief summary of his important work from which an adequate conception of his style and versatility can be obtained.
Athenæum—There is urgent need for a collected edition of Mr. Davidson's poems and plays. The volume and variety of his poetry ought to win for it wider acceptance. It is indeed curious that poetry so splendid as Mr. Davidson's should fail to get fuller recognition. There are many aspects of his genius which ought to make his work popular in the best sense of the word. He has almost invented the modern ballad.... He handles the metre with masterly skill, filling it with imaginative life and power.
Times—There are not more than two or three living writers of English verse out of whose poems so good a selection could be made. The poems in the selection are not only positive—they are visible.
Literary World—We count ourselves among those to whom Mr. Davidson has made himself indispensable.
Daily Mail—Mr. Davidson is our most individual singer. His variety is as surprising as his virility of diction and thought.
St. James's Gazette—This volume may serve as an introduction to a poet of noble and distinctive utterance.
New Age—The book contains much that Mr. Davidson's warmest admirers would best wish to remember him by. There is a subtle charm about these poems which eludes definition, which defies analysis.
T. P.'s Weekly—Mr. Davidson is one of the most individual of living poets; he has a rare lyrical faculty.
Morning Post—Mr. Davidson is as true a poet as we have now among us ... he has included nothing that we do not admire.
Daily Graphic—This delightful volume.
Dundee Advertiser—Its poetry gives out a masterful note.... Mr. Davidson's poem pictures.
Transcriber's Notes
In The Chicago Tribune review for STARS OF THE DESERT by
Laurence Hope, "she" may be a typo for "he."
(Perhaps she has done for the Hindu poets what FitzGerald did)
In the List of Illustrations: "To be Alone, to Watch the Dusk and Weep"
has two links: page 32 links to the poem and Frontispiece
links to the illustration.

Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists
because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
people in all walks of life.
Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the

Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
Literary Archive Foundation
Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
status with the IRS.
The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To
SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
particular state visit http://pglaf.org
While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
approach us with offers to donate.
International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations.

Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
works.
Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily
keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
http://www.gutenberg.org
This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
