      SECOND EDiriOm Just published , foolscap 8 vci 5 s . D EEAM OF PYTHAaOBAS , and OTHEB POEMS . By EMMA TA . THAM . " Here is an unpretending volume of poems by a young lady j and we have nothing to add at present but a word of unfeigned sympathy and regard for a young mind so full of fine arid fervent feeling , so rich , in aspiration , so refined in culture , so pure and delicate in thougnt , so accomplished in expression . "—Leader . " The Dream of Pythagoras' is a fine poem , full of fanoy . " — -Athenaeum . " There is a simplicity of language , an originality of thought , a redundance of imagery , and an exuberance of fancy ¦ which we have seldom seen equalled in , tlie productions of any female writer . "—Britannia , " The writer has a , fine imagina / tio n , a commanding flow of language , an ear so musical as to reject instinctively an inharmonious combination of vowels ] or the clash of rugged consonants . " - — Taits Magazine . " Miss Tatham ' s poetry is characterised by unsurpassed purity of sentiment , high-toned piety , exquisite _ pathos , profound thought , brilliant conceptions , and the finest music , all clothed with a soft melancholy , vvJiich enchants tho reader . The Dream of Pythagoras , ' which is tho loador of this train of mystical beauties , is a thrilling description of metempsychosis . "We pronounce the boo k the most genuine specimen of original poetry which this poetical ago ha » produced . "—Christicm Weekly News . " Here wo find merit onough to ¦ warrant us in welcoming this young lady to the band of poets whose words arc not to fall unheeded . "Wo do not fear comparison with Shelley and Mrs . Heina . ns . "—Church of Ennland Jteview . " In every pa ^ o wo find a warm , lively , chastened imagination , uxprGKBing its thoughts , hopes , and . aspirations , in . language at once 80 happy and vigorous , as to captivate tho understanding , command ( ho homago of tho judgment , and awakon emotions which it woro well for tho hearts of all constantly tochorish .
