Messrs. Roberts Brothers' Publications. QUIET HOURS. A COLLECTION OF POEMS, MEDITATIVE AND RELIGIOUS. "Under this modest title we have here about a hundred and fifty of the best short poems in the language. The compiler, whoever she is, has a rare taste, and also, what is equally valuable, good judgment. The poems are on all subjects. This dainty little volume is just the book for a Christmas or New Year's gift." -Peterson's Magazine. "Such a book as this seems to us much better adapted than any formal book of devotion to beget a calm and prayerful spirit in the reader. It will no doubt become a dear companion to many earnestly religious people.". Christian Register. "Quiet Hours' is the appropriate title which some unnamed compiler has given to a collection of musings of many writers - a nosegay made up of some slighter, choicer, and more delicate flowers from the garden of the poets. Emerson, Chadwick, Higginson, Arnold, Whittier, and Clough, are represented, as well as Coleridge, Browning, Wordsworth, and Tennyson; and the selections widely vary in character, ranging from such as relate to the moods and aspects of nature, to voices of the soul when most deeply stirred."— Congregationalist. 18mo, cloth, red edges.

POEMS SELECTED BY THE EDITOR "Another delicate little morceau of a book. Seemly in its outer garb, but incomparably more beautiful within. A cunningly selected group, by the hand of a skilful arranger of poems, from the choicest writers. An exquisite and precious little book, that will doubtless let God's sunshine into many a sad soul." - Christian Intelligencer. "Sunshine in the Soul' is a collection, in a bijou volume, of a number of the most beautiful, tender, uplifting, and satisfying verses of a religious character which exist in our language. There is abundance of help and comfort in this little volume, and many a heart will be made glad in its possession." Boston Traveller. "Designed, as its title indicates, to cheer and elevate, and to be a bright companion for the reader. It is pleasant to find such a book of religious verse, that has nothing austere or gloomy in its pages, nothing that seems to darken heaven to man." - Portland Press.
