A Book of Poems and Pastorals, illustrated by the late

Alice Havers, Gertrude D. Hammond, and Harriet M. Bennett (Hildee- heimer and Faulkner), contains extracts from Keats's "Isabella;. or, the Pot of Basil," "Una and the Lion," from the "Peery Queen ;" Jean Ingelow's "Brides of Arderley ;" " Ginevra," from Rogers's "Italy ; " and various ballads and songs. The illustrae trations are praiseworthy, some of the figures being very pretty (real shepherdesses do not wear such costumes as we see in "To his Love"), while there is graceful design in the borderings and. tail-pieces.
