SPLENDIDLY ILLUSTRATED WORKS

PUBLISHED BY C. TILT, FLEET STREET,

POEMS BY LOUISA ANNE TWAMLEY;

WITH ORIGINAL ILLUSTRATIONS DRAWN AND ENGRAVED

BY THE AUTHORESS.

"These Poems are the production of a very high genius, and not inferior to any of the first female writers of the day. The pictorial illustrations show her to have cultivated very successfully this branch of the Fine Arts."-Hon. Mrs. NortonCourt Magazine.

"There are some few who can appreciate the grace, the beauty, and sweet feeling of these Poems. We fear they are too chaste, and too good, to become popular." -Captain Marryatt-Metropolitan.

"Miss Twamley's Poems show that she is a painter, and her paintings that she is a poet."-Monthly Repository.

"The Poems are sweet and elegant. We hope, and expect, to meet Miss Twamley again; it is long since we have looked into a first volume of poems fuller of promise than hers."-Athenæum.

"There is a smooth facility, a polished ease, and an unlaboured freedom, perceptible throughout the effusions of Miss Twamley."-Fraser's Magazine.

"Miss Twamley comes before us in the double character of a poetess and an artist, and, aided by the twin-sisters of music and painting, she has produced a very delightful volume"-Monthly Magazine.

POPULAR FLORAL WORKS,

RECENTLY PUBLISHED BY C. TILT, FLEET STREET.

LESSONS ON FLOWER PAINTING;
In a Series of easy and progressive Studies.

Drawn and coloured after Nature with the utmost care. By JAMES ANDREWS.
Six parts, 2s 6d. each; or handsomely done up in cloth, gilt, 16s.
Each subject has a duplicate uncoloured, printed on drawing paper, for the
Pupil's Practice.

"One of the most delightful accomplishments that can be chosen for the fair sex is that of catching the transient shades of beauty which are found upon flowers, and fixing them on paper. Nothing is forgotten in depicting them; and when we look upon the faithful representative, even in the depths of winter, we may fancy that we inhale the perfumes of Spring. This study, in imparting a taste for all that is beautiful in nature, fills the soul with ravishing emotions, and opens before us the enchanted avenues of a world full of wonders."-Extract from "The Sentiment of Flowers."

ELEGANT AND INTERESTING WORK IN FRENCH.

Price 9s. 6d., beautifully bound in figured Silk,

LE LANGAGE DE FLEURS:
PAR MADAME CHARLOTTE DE LA TOUR,

Avec une Dictionnaire des Plantes, Français-Anglais, par l' Editeur du Sentiment of Flowers, et douze groupes de Fleurs, colories avec soin.

This is the original work on which the very popular " Language of Flowers" is founded. It is admirably adapted for a French present.

In cloth, gilt edges, price 6s.; or elegantly bound in morocco or silk, price 88.,
THE SENTIMENT OF FLOWERS;

With TWELVE GROUPS of FLOWERS, tastefully designed and coloured.
"In Eastern lands they talk in flowers,
And they tell in a garland their loves and cares;
Each blossom that blooms in their garden bowers,
On its leaves a mystic language bears."

This work teaches the eloquent language referred to in the above beautiful lines. As in the East, so in the fair island of Britain, "flowers are here made to speak the language of sentiment."

"A charming little book, from Madame de La Tour's Langage des Fleurs, in which all that was eligible for English readers in that popular tome is preserved and translated, all that might be objectionable omitted, and much is added of the translator's original matter, which considerably enhances the attraction of the whole. With a dozen of sweet floral coloured plates, it is precisely the thing for a fair lady's boudoir."-Lit. Gaz.

C. TILT has constantly on sale an extensive assortment of GROUPS AND VASES OF FLOWERS, designed with the greatest taste, and coloured in a style far superior to the Drawings generally offered for sale, and at less than one fourth of their prices; averaging from 1s. to 2s. 6d. each print.
