THE VOICES OF THE YEAR;

Or, the Poet's Kalendar.

ILLUSTRATING THE MONTHS AND SEASONS OF THE YEAR.

"The volume is illustrated with numerous woodcuts, some of them the full size of the page, and all sweetly appropriate. The binding is a rich imitation of Venetian tooling of the middle of the sixteenth century. We know of no book we would more willingly send as a gift to a boy at school, to a daughter in the country, or which would be more acceptable as an addition to the library of a country house, than these Voices of the Year."-Reader. "All the well-known poems which describe rural life and occupation, are included in this volume."-Watchman.

"No pains have been spared in collecting from the resources of English poetry, every pastoral of merit, and a great number of poems, more or less touching the beauties of nature, their charms and association-Morn ing Post.

"The title is happy, and the matter justifies it; the year being divided into seasons, and subdivided into months, and the whole delineated by choice morsels from the poets, and exquisite pictures on wood."-The Home News.
