TAPPAN, E.M. (p. 176)
In the Days of Queen Victoria.
Lothrop. 1.00
The celebrated reign of the good queen is faithfully portrayed.
Queen, as true to womanhood as Queenhood,
Glorying in the glories of her people,
Sorrowing with the sorrows of the lowest!
. . . . . . . . . .
Henry's fifty years are all in shadow,
Gray with distance Edward's fifty summers,
Ev'n her Grandsire's fifty half forgotten.
TENNYSON.
WHITE, J.S. (Editor).
The Boys' and Girls' Plutarch.
Putnam. 1.75
Plutarch wrote a hundred books and was never dull. Most of these
have been lost, but the portions which remain have found, with
the exception of Holy Writ, more readers through eighteen
centuries than the works of any other writer of ancient
times.--_Introduction._
If any substitute for a full translation is desired, this abridgment
will serve. It is illustrated.
WRIGHT, H.C.
