BARABBAS : A DREAM OF THE WORLD'S TRAGEDY.

Twenty-Jifth Edition.

' The tender reverence of the treatment and the imaginative beauty of the writiiig have reconciled us to the daring of the conception, and the conviction is forced on us that even so exalted a subject cannot be uiade too familiar to us, provided it be presented in the true spirit of Christian faith. _ The amplifications of the Scriptup; narrative are often conceived with high poetic insight, and this "Dream of thr World's Tragedy " is, despite some trifling incongruities, a lofty and not inade quate paraphrase of the supreme climax of the inspired narrative.'— Z»«Wj>- lievic'M.

THE SORROWS OF SATAN. Twenty-ninth Edition.

' A very powerful piece of work. . . . The conception is magnificent, and is likely to win an abiding place within the memory of man. . . . The author has immense command of language, and a limitless audacity. . . . This interesting and re- markable romance will live long after much of the ephemeral literature of the day is forgotten. ... A literary phenomenon . . . novel, and even sublime.' — W. T. Stead in the Rtvieiu of Reviews.
