5. The Prometheus Bound, and the Agamemnon of ./Eschylus. Translated

from the Greek. By T. MEDWIN, Esq. (Pickering.)— These poetical translations from a difficult Greek author, we should scarcely have expected from an ex-officer of Light Dra- goons. Neither did we mark any signs of' learning in his Conver- sations of Lord Byron: since then, however, we suppose he has brushed up his school Greek, and these are the fruits of his la- bours. The translations are creditable ; being very literal gene- rally, and yet on the whole poetical.
