‘A fascinating little edition.’--_Notes and Queries._

‘A cheap, very comely, and altogether desirable
edition.’--_Westminster Gazette._

‘But a few years ago such volumes would have been deemed worthy to
be considered _éditions de luxe_. To-day, the low price at which
they are offered to the public alone prevents them being so
regarded.’--_Studio._

‘Handy in shape and size, wonderfully cheap, beautifully printed
from the Cambridge text, and illustrated quaintly yet admirably by
Mr. Byam Shaw, we have nothing but praise for it. No one who wants
a good and convenient Shakespeare--without excursuses, discursuses,
or even too many notes--can do better, in our opinion, than
subscribe to this issue: which is saying a good deal in these days
of cheap reprints.’--_Vanity Fair._

‘What we like about these elegant booklets is the attention that
has been paid to the paper, as well as to the print and decoration;
such stout laid paper will last for ages. On this account alone,
the ‘Chiswick’ _should easily be first_ among pocket
Shakespeares.’--_Pall Mall Gazette._

WEBSTER’S INTERNATIONAL DICTIONARY.

_2348 PAGES._ _5000 ILLUSTRATIONS._

NEW EDITION, REVISED THROUGHOUT WITH A NEW SUPPLEMENT OF 25,000 ADDITIONAL WORDS AND PHRASES.

The Appendices comprise a Pronouncing Gazetteer of the World, Vocabularies of Scripture, Greek, Latin, and English Proper Names, a Dictionary of the Noted Names of Fiction, a Brief History of the English Language, a Dictionary of Foreign Quotations, Words, Phrases, Proverbs, &c., a Biographical Dictionary with 10,000 names, &c., &c.

=Dr. MURRAY=, _Editor of the ‘Oxford English Dictionary,’_ says:--‘In
this its latest form, and with its large Supplement and numerous
appendices, it is a wonderful volume, which well maintains its
ground against all rivals on its own lines. The ‘definitions,’ or
more properly, ‘explanations of meaning’ in ‘Webster’ have always
struck me as particularly terse and well-put; and it is hard to see
how anything better could be done within the limits.’

=Professor JOSEPH WRIGHT, M.A., Ph.D., D.C.L., LL.D.=, _Editor of the
‘English Dialect Dictionary,’_ says:--‘The new edition of
“Webster’s International Dictionary” is undoubtedly the most useful
and reliable work of its kind in any country. No one who has not
examined the work carefully would believe that such a vast amount
of lexicographical information could possibly be found within so
small a compass.’

=Rev. JOSEPH WOOD, D.D.=, _Head Master of Harrow_, says:--‘I have
always thought very highly of its merits. Indeed, I consider it to
be far the most accurate English Dictionary in existence, and much
more reliable than the “Century.” For daily and hourly reference,
“Webster” seems to me unrivalled.’

FOOTNOTES:

[1] I believe that a translation of one of Heine’s works--his “Book of Songs”--was published in this country a few years ago, but I have not met with it. An American version of the “Pictures of Travel” also appeared in 1855.

[2] One of the finest in the collection, “The Grenadiers,” which is thoroughly imbued with the spirit of Béranger, was written as early as 1815, when Heine was not sixteen years old, and before Béranger had written his analogous poems “Le Vieux Drapeau,” “Le Vieux Sergent,” &c.

[3] The Arminius of Tacitus.

[4] A suburb of Frankfort, on the further side of the Main.

[5] German _litterateurs_ of more or less note.

[6] In the original, _Hell_ and _Kind_, well-known writers. It is necessary to translate the names for the sake of the pun.

[7] The word “Gimpel” in the original has the double meaning of “bullfinch” and “blockhead,” and the point of this verse is therefore lost in a translation.

[8] See Heine’s Tragedy of that name.

[9] The Hindoo god corresponding to Cupid.

[10] Spring.

[11] The eminent Professor and Editor of Hegel’s works. He died in 1839.

[12] It is with real hesitation that I publish this lame and impotent conclusion to a legend the first two parts of which are in Heine’s best style.

[13] The three following verses are extracted by Heine _verbatim_ from Schiller’s well-known “Lament of Ceres.” The version of them here given is taken from the translation of Schiller’s Poems published by me in 1851.

[14] Names for the three royal houses of Prussia, Austria, and Bavaria.

[15] See the account of the old Drum-Major Le Grand contained in the prose section of Heine’s “Pictures of Travel,” entitled “Book Le Grand.”

[16] A well-known republican poet and writer, born at Stuttgardt; at one time caressed, and afterwards banished, by the King of Prussia. He took an active part in the political troubles of 1848.

[17] See Schiller’s Play of “Don Carlos.”

[18] Evidently a satire on the King of Prussia.

[19] A famous theological writer, who died in 1850, at the age of ninety. He was formerly Counsellor of the Consistory (_Kirchenrath_) at Würzburg, and for many years Professor of Church History, &c. at Heidelberg.

[20] A polite allusion to the late King of Bavaria and his Walhalla.

[21] This refers to a poem of Freiligrath’s, entitled “The Dead to the Living,” for which he was prosecuted, but acquitted, in 1848.

[22] A hill close to Berlin.

[23] I have here attempted to imitate a wretched pun in the original.

[24] A “blind passenger” means in German a person who travels without paying his fare.

[25] Berlin.

[26] It will be remembered that the sun is feminine in German.

[27] Edward Gans, a distinguished German professor, and pupil of Hegel, whose works he edited. He died in 1839.

[28] One section of the famous Bremen Cellar is called the Rose, and is said to contain hock of between two and three centuries old. Another part is called the Apostles’ Cellar, and has in it twelve vats, known as the Twelve Apostles, also full of very old wine.

[29] See Freiligrath’s Poems.

[30] Well-known German writers.

[31] A race not unlike the _Crétins_.

[32] Shakespear.

[33] Alluding to the large number of petty states into which Germany is divided.

[34] A well-known poet and physician, born in 1786, and founder of the so-called Modern Swabian School of Poetry.

[35] A voluminous writer, born at Stuttgardt in 1807. He attacked Heine’s School of Poetry, and was repaid by Heine in the same coin.

[36] See Lessing’s “Emilia Galotti.”

[37] See the concluding words of the last scene but one of the above play.

[38] See the end of Schiller’s “Gods of Greece.”

[39] This refers to the time of Heine’s residence in Berlin, when he was intimate with these and other well-known personages. See Sketch of his Life, _ante_.

[40] The slightly irregular metre of this fine poem is a close copy of the original.

[41] A popular German poet, born in 1798, who was deprived of his professorship in the University of Breslau, in 1842, for publishing a volume entitled “Unpolitical Songs.”

[42] The last four verses were erased by the censors from the original edition.

[43] A famous theologian, poet, and orator, and one of Luther’s chief followers. He died in 1523.

[44] A Dominican friar, who was one of Luther’s first antagonists.

[45] The first edition ended with this verse, which was struck out by the censors, and replaced by the five following verses.

[46] The remains of John of Leyden and his two chief accomplices were exposed in these cages, which still remain in their old position.

[47] A youthful poet, who excited great enthusiasm in Germany by a poem, written in 1840 (when a war with France on the Eastern question seemed not unlikely), beginning,--

“They shall not have the German Rhine.”

[48] The well-known French poet, who replied to the above poem of Becker’s, by another commencing,--

“We have had your German Rhine.”

[49] A noted theologian, born in 1802, and one of the leaders of the orthodox party in Prussia.

[50] Called Arminius by the Romans.

[51] The famous historian and professor of theology at Berlin. He died in 1850.

[52] A well-known actress and voluminous dramatic author, born in 1800.

[53] The historian.

[54] A professor of gymnastics.

[55] A linguist and professor of languages and gymnastics jointly. In the latter science he was a pupil of Jahn.

[56] A monument has been recently erected in Dettmoldt to commemorate the victory of Arminius over Varus.

[57] A poetess of some reputation, who died in 1791. Her granddaughter, Helmine Chezy, born in 1783, was also well known as a poetess and romance writer.

[58] The great composer Mendelssohn was grandson to the famous philosopher of that name.

[59] The rest of this chapter was erased by the censors from the original edition.

[60] The great fire at Hamburg took place in May, 1842, or shortly before this poem was written.

[61] A nickname of a relation of Heine’s.

[62] A leading publisher at Hamburg, employed by Heine to publish many of his works.

[63] A noted critic, poet, and historian, born in 1798. He had literary quarrels with both Heine and Börne.

[64] For the full particulars of this story see Herodotus, Book II. c. 121.

[65] The French author.

[66] Carnival masks.

[67] Or Valkyriors; a race of martial virgins, described in northern mythology as riding in the air and fighting under Odin.

[68] This poem was formerly suppressed by the censors.

[69] This poem was originally suppressed by the censors.

[70] Meaning the founder of the Teutonic race.

[71] A noted brigand, executed in 1803.

[72] A Polish term of endearment.

[73] This poem was originally suppressed by the censors.

[74] A poet and writer, born in 1816, and persecuted by the police for his liberal writings.

[75] An ancient Hebrew word for _Almighty_.

[76] A Hebrew word for _Lord_.

[77] Doubtless John Martin is here meant.

[78] A recent poet of no great reputation. He was the joint editor of the “Rhine Annual” with Freiligrath and Simrock.

[79] The famous philosopher, who at one time resided in Munich.

[80] The eminent painter, who decorated the Glyptothek and Pinacothek at Munich. He was afterwards Director of the Berlin Academy.

[81] One of Hutten’s well-known works was entitled “Epistolae Obscurorum Vivorum.”

[82] This poem recounts the untimely fate of a playmate, who was drowned when trying to save a kitten. See Heine’s _Reisebilder_, chapter vi.

[83] A parody on the beginning of Schiller’s “Hymn to Joy.”

[84] See also this story in Book I. of the “Romancero,” p. 411.

[85] Meyerbeer.

[86] The famous composer, whose real name was Beer.

[87] See Book II. of “Romancero.”

[88] The tutelar goddess of Hamburg. See Heine’s “Germany.”

[89] Liszt.

[90] The hero of this story is the well-known Swabian poet George Herwegh.

[91] Funken (or Sparks) was the name given to the soldiers of Cologne before the Revolution, who used to knit when on guard.

[92] Drickes and Marizebill are popular masks at the Carnival at Cologne.

[93] These two poems were first published in the _Musenaumanach_ for 1854.

[94] The national colours of Germany.

[95] This was the nickname of a young lady whose acquaintance Heine made towards the end of his life, who attended him in his last illness, and for whom he felt a strong affection. The present poem was the last composition of Heine, and was written only two or three weeks before his death. It is undoubtedly one of the finest of his works.
