Volume XXI.
Reading edition
LYRA ELEGANTIARUM: a Collection of some of the best Specimens of Social and Occasional Verse by Deceased Authors. Revised and Enlarged Edition. Edited by Frederick Locker-Lampson, assisted by Coulson Kernahan. With Notes, and Portrait of the Editor.
The Lyra Elegantiarum, which is a standard and exhaustive collection of the best vers de Société and light lyrical verse in the language, has for some time been out of print, and second-hand copies have recently been sold for more than ten times the original price. In announcing this New Edition, the Publishers wish to call attention to the fact that not only has the work been thoroughly revised and brought up to date, but that it has also been greatly enlarged, and contains very many Poems not to be found in previous issues.
