Nearly all the ballads contained in this very interesting collection are unique. They are printed from the extraordinary collection which belonged successively to the Duke of Roxburghe and Mr. Bright. At the sale of Mr. Bright's library in 1845 they prodnced £535.

630 BOOK of British Ballads, edited by S. C.

The decorations are of the very highest class, the literary department is perfect, and the cheapness of the volume is a marvel.

The above forms a portion of the well-known "Zachary Boyd's Bible." A great many of his words and phrases are curious and amusing, and the book would repay a diligent perusal. Boyd was a contemporary of Shakespeare, and a great many phrases in his "Bible" are the same as to be found in the great southern Dramatist.
