Book Description

Excerpt from The Hawarden Horace Ten of the following pieces have appeared in the columns of the Spectator, from which they are reprinted by the kind permission of the editor. The remainder are now published for the first time. The rendering of Eheu fugaces (Od. II. 14) is from the pen of Mr. M. H. Temple, and that of Est mihi nonum (Od. IV. 11) by Mr. E. V. Lucas. For permission to include their unpublished versions in my collection, as well as for many emendations and helpful suggestions, I desire most cordially and gratefully to acknowledge my indebtedness to these two friends.
