Summary:

This third volume of the "New Edition" of George Osborn's nineteenth-century collection of The Poetry of John and Charles Wesley continues to widen the access of the original poems of the eighteenth-century Wesleys, as well as their translations and altered versions of others' poetical works. Although the total of thirteen volumes of Osborn's edition might justifiably be considered by the scholarly world as "outdated," it cannot be termed "obsolete," since, nonetheless, it remains as the largest collection of the Wesleys' poetic productions yet published.
