ADVERTISEMENT.

These Poems are given as they occur on a list drawn up last June. A few had already been printed in periodicals,

There is hardly such direct warrant for publishing the Translations; which were only intended, many years ago, to accompany and explain certain Engravings after ancient Gems, in the projected work of a friend, by whose kindness they are now recovered: but as two of the original series (the 'Adonis' of Bion, and 'Song to the Rose' from Achilles Tatius) have subsequently appeared, it is presumed that the remainder may not improperly follow.

A single recent version is added.

London, February, 1862.

This work was published before January 1, 1928, and is in the public domain worldwide because the author died at least 100 years ago.
