The Clarendon Press sends us the first two volumes of

its edition of Ben Jonson, to be completed in ten volumes. The editors are Professor C. H. Herford and Mr. Percy Simpson, and they seem from these two volumes, The Man and His Work, to fit in together exceptionally well. The edition, when it is finished, will be a monument of fine scholarship and sensitive criticism.
