"Not one of his biographers will lead us so deeply into his secret as he does himself" (38). Most of the information in Sharp's essays is the result of personal acquaintances and reminiscences.

In original brown cloth with blind stamped covers and gold stamped oval on front cover; yapped edges. According to the editor, he had more poems than space in his two previous volumes, Lyra Eucharistica and Lyra Messianica, and so decided to publish the extra poems and a few new additions in the present work. He thought that a "Miscellaneous Collection of Religious Poetry, which should be written by the Contributors who secured the popularity of the former Lyræ," would find favor with his readers. Shipley goes on to say that the "Title �Mystic' was chosen as indicative of the mystical interpretation which has been given in many of the Poems in the following pages to the Sacred or Legendary Events, or to the doctrinal Statements of Holy Scripture, or to the other Subjects upon which the Hymns and Verses were composed." The work contains an index of the first lines of the hymns and also excerpts from reviews from the previous two volumes. PRB-123
Short, Ernest Henry. Watts. 1st ed. London: Allan, 1924. Original red cloth. Ownership signature of G. Stroud Read, March 13th, 1929 on front flyleaf. The author maintains that the art of Watts may be understood only by relating the "artist to the pulsing life and thought of his age." Short goes on to say that "the interest and significance of George Frederic Watts areise from the fact that he is the latest of Britain's poet-painters. In deed and word, his aim was ever to identify his work with �all that is good and great in every creed and utterance, and with all that is inspiring in every record of heroism, of suffering, of effort and of achievement.'" The work is divided into four chapters: biographical and personal, external influences, style and subjects, and the quality of the artist. There are also two appendices: a list of Watt's pictures and a bibliography. PRB-101

Solomon, Simeon. A Vision of Love Revealed in Sleep. London: Printed for the author, 1871. Original blue cloth binding with gold stamping on front cover; cover designed by author. Prospectus for this book (1 leaf) laid in. Simeon Solomon was one of the more fascinating members of the Pre-Raphaelite circle, but after his legal conviction for pederasty in 1873, he was no longer mentioned in discussions of the brotherhood. He showed unusual early promise, becoming a student of the Royal Academy Schools when he was fifteen and entering his first picture for exhibition at eighteen. A Vision of Love Revealed in Sleep was published by the author and is an allegorical fragment, possibly suggested by Rossetti's Hand and Soul. PRB-133
