Advice (issued in June, 1873, with the first two parts of the work):-'I publish these lectures at present roughly, in the form in which they were delivered (necessarily more brief and broken than that which may be permitted when time is not limited) because I know that some of their bearers wished to obtain them for immediate reference. Ultimately, I hope, they will be completed in an illustrated volume. containing at least six lectures, on the Robin, the Swallow, the Chough, the Lark, the Swan, and the Seagull. But months pass by me now like days, and my work remains only in design. I think it better, therefore to let the lectures appear separately, with provisional woodcuts.'

Roadside Songs of Tuscany. Translated and Illustrated by FRANCESCA ALEXANDER, and Edited by JOHN RUSKIN, LL.D. These songs and hymns of the poor people. are but the siftings, so to say, of hundreds and hundreds which I have heard and learnt, mostly from old people many of them have never, so far as I know, been written down before, and others it would be impossible now to find. . . . It seems to me that there are others who will collect and preserve the thoughts of the rich and great but I have wished to make my book all of poor people's poetry.'-The Translator. Miss Alexander's work . . . in its relation to former religious art of the same faithfulness, is distinguished by the faculty and habit of realization which belongs to all Pre-Raphaelism, whether English or American; that is to say, it represents any imagined event as far as possible in the way it must have happened, and as it looked when happening to people who did not then know its Divine import. ... I am thankful my life has been spared at least to place before my country. men these records of domestic virtue yet vivid and pure, in the nation which taught us the first syllables of Christ's Gospel.'-The Editor.
