The whole of the plays and poems are included in only six volumes of ideally handy and convenient size, neither too large for the pocket nor too small for the shelf. Each volume contains an artistic coloured frontispiece and a decorative title-page. The binding is specially neat and tasteful, and there is a choice of three distinct styles of cloth and leather bindings, at from 2/- each volume net.
The extreme neatness and tastefulness of this set makes it one of the most exquisite and acceptable gifts that can be made. It is the edition that a student or lover of Shakespeare would choose for himself.
Prices, 2/-, 2/6, and 3/-each volume. Also in Sets in Cloth and Leather Cabinets; prices on application to the Booksellers.
Footnotes
[ 1 ] The common salutation throughout the Balearic Islands is Bon di tenga from an inferior to a superior, to which the reply would be Bon di. Frequently, however, the first of these is clipped down to the last word, which is pronounced "Tāīn-gă." After dark it becomes Bon nit, or Bon nit tenga, according to social standing.
[ 2 ] A peseta is worth rather less than a franc at the usual rate of exchange.
