Diogenes in London. By H. B. Marriott-Watson. (Methuen and Co.)—These
"fantasies and sketches" seem to us but very poor stuff, only just within, if within at all, the limits of decency. But this is part of the newest conception of the literary art ; add the element of dolefulness, and you have the fin-de-siecle essayist.
Messrs. Griffith and Farran have published, in neat and con- venient form, two reprints from the works of William Law. These are The Spirit of Love and The Spirit of Prayer. —Another reprint of considerable interest is Secular Poems log Henry Vaughan, Satirist, selected and arranged, with Notes and Vocabulary, by J. R. Tutin (J. R. Tutin, Hull).—In "The Ancient and Modern Library of Theological Literature" (Griffith and Ferran) we have The Five Empires, by Robert Isaac Wilberforce (there is a misprint in the title on the cover).
