RUDYARD KIPLING'S NEW POEMS

Rudyard Kipling. THE SEVEN SEAS. By Rudyard Kipling. Third Edition. Crown 8vo. Buckram, gilt top. 6s.

'The new poems of Mr. Rudyard Kipling have all the spirit and swing of their predecessors. Patriotism is the solid concrete foundation on which Mr. Kipling has built the whole of his work.'—Times.

'Full of passionate patriotism and the Imperial spirit.'—Yorkshire Post.

'The Empire has found a singer; it is no depreciation of the songs to say that statesmen may have, one way or other, to take account of them.'— Manchester Guardian.

'Animated through and through with indubitable genius.'—Daily Telegraph.

'Packed with inspiration, with humour, with pathos. '—Daily Chronicle.

'All the pride of empire, all the intoxication of power, all the ardour, the energy, the masterful strength, and the wonderful endurance and death-scorning pluck which are the very bone and fibre and marrow of the British character are here.'—Daily Mail.

Rudyard Kipling. BARRACK-ROOM BALLADS; And Other Verses. By Rudyard Kipling. Tenth Edition. Crown 8vo. 6s.

'Mr. Kipling's verse is strong, vivid, full of character…. Unmistakable genius rings in every line.'—Times.

'The ballads teem with imagination, they palpitate with emotion. We read them with laughter and tears; the metres throb in our pulses, the cunningly ordered words tingle with life; and if this be not poetry, what is?'—Pall Mall Gazette.

"Q." POEMS AND BALLADS. By "Q.," Author of 'Green Bays,' etc. Crown 8vo. Buckram. 3s. 6d.

'His book will be read with interest by the most fastidious lovers of poetry, and it will please many who think they have no taste for poetry at all.'—Scotsman.

"Q." THE GOLDEN POMP: A Procession of English Lyrics from Surrey to Shirley, arranged by A. T. Quiller Couch. Crown 8vo. Buckram. 6s.

'A delightful volume: a really golden "Pomp."'—Spectator.

"Q." GREEN BAYS: Verses and Parodies. By "Q.," Author of 'Dead Man's Rock,' etc. Second Edition. Crown 8vo. 3s. 6d.

'The verses display a rare and versatile gift of parody, great command of metre, and a very pretty turn of humour.'—Times.
