Also printed entirely on Japanese paper bound in half vellum with gilt top 52s. 6d. net (limited to 35 copies for sale). The volume contains a general Index with all makers’ marks and the names of donors, owners, etc., also a chronological list of all the pieces exhibited._

_GLASGOW HERALD._—“The illustrations are extremely good,
delicate, and yet exquisitely clear, and amply deserve the
editors’ praise.”

_THE SCOTSMAN._—“The Collection was peculiarly rich in old
College plate, and many of these founders’ cups and other
articles are, apart from the interest attaching to their age
and history, noble specimens of old silver work.”

_THE TIMES._—“A very beautifully illustrated Catalogue of the
Fitzwilliam Exhibition.... Among especially beautiful plates
we may mention that of the ‘Founders’ Cup’ of Emmanuel College
(34), the ewer and salver belonging to Sidney College (37), the
‘Poison Cup’ of Clare, and Archbishop Parker’s ewer and salver
belonging to Corpus College.... Lord Carysfort contributed
two wonderful pieces, an incense ship and a censer, among the
earliest known work of an English silversmith, which, having
belonged to Ramsey Abbey, were found in Whittlesea Mere in
1850.”

_PALL MALL GAZETTE._—“It is a work of great beauty, and
contains sixteen full-page plates, besides many illustrations
in the text. The book should be prized, not by collectors
alone, but by all interested in old plate, and by those who
hope for more grace in modern design.”

_ROYAL ASIATIC SOCIETY’S JOURNAL._—“This interesting little
work gives an account, much fuller, of course, than appears
in our present issue, of the discovery of the palimpsest
MS., of which Mrs Lewis exhibited the photographs at our May
meeting.... The whole is a very charming narrative of an
important literary discovery, which is of especial interest as
being due to the self-sacrificing zeal of two lady scholars.”

_TIMES._—“An unpretending but vivid record of the successful
pilgrimage of two ladies to Mount Sinai, and their discovery of
an early and important codex of ancient Syriac Gospels, as well
as of three other valuable codices of later date.”

LAPSUS CALAMI AND OTHER VERSES. By the late J. K. STEPHEN. With a Biographical Introduction and Photogravure Portrait after a Chalk drawing of Mr F. MILLER. Foolscap 8vo. Cloth. 5_s._ net. _Just ready._

The editor says of this volume: “I have made this edition
practically complete, omitting only a few short pieces for more
or less special reasons.” Besides the contents of the third
edition of _Lapsus Calami_ and the whole of _Quo Musa Tendis?_
it has several pieces from the first and second editions of
_Lapsus Calami_ that were omitted from the third, and two
pieces not before printed.

QUO MUSA TENDIS? Foolscap 8vo. 3_s._ 6_d._ net; also 150 Copies on large paper, Dutch hand-made. 12_s._ 6_d._ net.

_TIMES._—“His verse is musical and various, and his themes are
touched with a happy knack of originality.”

_SCOTSMAN._—“Poetry or not, his verse is of the kind that
invariably inspires a friendly feeling to the writer; and every
one who reads either this book or _Lapsus Calami_ will keep a
kindly eye open for Mr Stephen’s next appearance, and share the
pleasures of its success.”

_DAILY CHRONICLE._—“The whole of the _Lapsus Ultimi_ are
very clever, and show keen analysis of character as well as
effective dramatic handling.”

_CAMBRIDGE REVIEW._—“Mr J. K. Stephen’s new book, _Quo Musa
Tendis?_ fully maintains the reputation which its predecessor
earned, and will be warmly welcomed by Mr Stephen’s numerous
admirers.”

_FREEMAN’S JOURNAL._—“On the whole the neat little volume
is full of genuine and original merit, thoughts and fancies
brightly expressed, and bearing evidences of the refined
culture one associates with the best traditions of University
life. We can only trust that ‘J. K. S.’s’ prose will not be
unworthy of the promise of the muse of his student days.”

LAPSUS CALAMI. Fifth Edition (Fourth Thousand). With considerable omissions and additions. Foolscap 8vo. 2_s._ 6_d._ net. Also 150 on large paper, Dutch hand-made.

_SPECTATOR._—“Parodies of moderate merit are so easy, that we
seldom enjoy parodies, but J. K. S.’s parodies are of more
than moderate merit. They do not merely make one smile, and
then regret that one has smiled from the sense of emptiness
which follows; they make one almost think that the parody must
have been written by the poet parodied in a moment of amused
self-ridicule.... Take it all in all, the Lapsus Calami will be
a favourite wherever it is read.”

_HERALD_ (Boston U.S.).—“_Lapsus Calami_ was first published in
the April of 1891. In May a second edition was called for, and
in June a third was issued, an edition with various omissions
and additions. I am glad that the stanzas I am about to copy
were not omitted, for I think them delightfully wicked.... If
the Boston Browning Club were not so grave and serious a body,
I should like to read _The Last Ride together_ to them when I
come home.” LOUISE CHANDLER MOULTON.

THE LIVING LANGUAGES. A Defence of the Compulsory Study of Greek at Cambridge. Crown 8vo. 1_s._

_CAMBRIDGE REVIEW._—“The pamphlet before us can be enjoyed,
whatever our opinions may be, and deserves to be read and
considered whether we are convinced by it or no.”
