1868.—"Homeric Studies. [Containing Book i. of the Iliad and extracts from other books, etc., "translated in the Early-English blank verse."] by E. L. Swifte . . . . London, 1868. 4o."

"79. Iliad. W. L. Collins. 1869. [Ancient Classics)." (Foster, p.70).

This work, the date of which is 1870, is not a translation.

"80. Odyssey. Translated by W. L. Collins. 1870 [Ancient Classics]."

(Foster, p.70).

This also is not a translation.

"81. Iliad. Translated by John Graham Cordery. 2 vol. 1870 . . . ."

(Foster p. 70).

Both volumes of this work appeared in 1871.

1872.—"Key to the Iliad of Homer. For the use of schools . . . . W. R. Smith. [With the text of the first and sixth books, a large portion of the fifth, and a few select passages from the second.] . . . . Philadelphia, 1872. 8o."

This book has the text, and a translation in heroic verse, of the parts mentioned.

1874.—"Homer's Iliad. Translated [into English blank verse] by J. B. Rose . . . . London, 1874. 8o."

1878.—"Notes on Homer's Odyssey, Books ix & x. With a literal translation, by a Graduate in Classical Honours . . . . Cambridge, 1875, 4o."

1876.—"The Odyssey of Homer; construed literally and word for word. Book 17 . . . . [1876] by the Rev. Dr. Giles."

"87. Iliad and Odyssey. Translated by M. Barnard 2 vol. 1876." (Foster, p.71).

The one-volume Odyssey of 1876 does not mention any translation of the Iliad either done or contemplated, and I have not found any record of it.

1879.—"The Deeds and Death of Patroclos. Book xvi. of the Iliad, with . . . . notes and index, and a literal translation. By H. Dunbar . . . . Glasgow, 1879. 8o."

1880.—"Iliad i. By Charles Wellington Stone. Cambridge: University Press, John Wilson and Son. 1880."

"95. Iliad, Books xiii and xiv, translated by Herbert Hailstone. 2 vol., Cambridge. 1880." (Foster, p.71).

Two other small volumes, containing Hailstone's translation of Books xv and xxi, also appeared in 1880.

"98. Iliad, translated by Herbert Hailstone. 1882. Books xiii and xiv are reprints of No. 95." (Foster, p.72).

I have not encountered such a complete translation by Hailstone.

1889.—"The Ninth Odyssey of Homer . . . . rendered into hexameter verse by A. C. Grylls . . . . Cambridge, 1889. 8o."

"109. Iliad, Book xxii, with notes and translation by John Henry Freese. 1890.
