EXPLANATORY ENGLISH READER, AND UNIVERSAL CLASS BOOK; Consisting of a choice Variety of Selections in Prose and Poetry, on the most interesting and improving Subjects, systematically arranged, and edited on a Plan highly calculated to assist both Teacher and Pupil; compiled from the Works of the most eminent Authors, and embracing a copious Fund of Instruction and rational Entertainment,

The Fifth Edition, enlarged by the admission of se veral Original Pieces, (in the press, and nearly ready for publication.) Price 5s. 6d.

These Four READERS are so arranged as to lead` on the Pupil, by easy and regular gradation, to a complete acquirement of the art of Reading with grace and propriety; every care being taken to adapt them to the capacities of youth; and the system on which they are edited being found, from experience, to afford peculiar facility of instruction, with ease and pleasantness to the instructor. The length of time that the Explanatory English Reader" has been out of print has unavoidably induced some of its former patrons to substitute other books for it; but the constant and unabated demand for the Work is a certain proof of the estimation in which it is held; and the Proprietors have therefore endeavoured to improve and augment the Present Edition, that it may maintain its superiority among the numerous "Readers" which have of late issued from the press.
