METHUEN'S

ANNOUNCEMENTS

Poetry

Rudyard Kipling. BALLADS.

Crown 8vo. Buckram. 6s.

By RUDYARD KIPLING.

The announcement of a new volume of poetry from Mr. Kipling will excite wide interest. The exceptional success of 'Barrack-Room Ballads,' with which this volume will be uniform, justifies the hope that the new book too will obtain a wide popularity.

W. E. Henley. ENGLISH LYRICS. Selected and Edited by W. E. HENLEY. Crown 8vo. Buckram.

6s. Demy 8vo.

£I, IS.

Also 30 copies on hand-made paper
Also 15 copies on Japanese paper. Demy 8vo. £2, 25.

Few announcements will be more welcome to lovers of English verse than the one that Mr. Henley is bringing together into one book the finest lyrics in our language. Robust and original the book will certainly be, and it will be produced with the same care that made ‘Lyra Heroica' delightful to the hand and eye.

Demy 8vo. £I, Is.
Demy 8vo. £2, 25.

"Q" THE GOLDEN POMP: A Procession of English Lyrics from Surrey to Shirley, arranged by A. T. QUILLER COUCH. Crown 8vo. Buckram. 6s. Also 30 copies on hand-made paper. Also 15 copies on Japanese paper. Mr. Quiller Couch's taste and sympathy mark him out as a born anthologist, and out of the wealth of Elizabethan poetry he has made a book of great attraction. H. C. Beeching. LYRA SACRA : An Anthology of Sacred Verse. Edited by H. C. BEECHING, M.A. Crown 8vo. Buckram. 6s. This book will appeal to a wide public. Few languages are richer in serious verse than the English, and the Editor has had some difficulty in confining his material within his limits.

W B. Yeats. A BOOK OF IRISH VERSE. Edited by W. B. YEATS. Crown 8vo. 3s. 6d.

An anthology of Irish poetry selected by an editor whose own verse has won a considerable reputation.
