- "The Text of the Poems in this edition will, it is hoped, be found very accurate, having been carefully prepared by the Editor for the larger Library Edition, called 'The Cambridge Edition,' in three volumes 8vo. The Introductions are, with some revision, the same as those given in 'The Golden Treasury Edition' in two volumes 18mo., and are an adaptation of the more extensive editorial matter of 'The Cambridge Edition'."--Preface.
