Rh 1810.—"The battle of the Frogs and Mice; from the Batrachomyomachia: with miscellaneous translations Cambridge, [1810.]

This book includes a translation of part of Iliad i.

1810.—"A Translation of the first seven books of the Odyssey of Homer. [In verse. By Charles Lloyd.] Birmingham, 1810. 8o."

41.— Odyssey: [Translated into English verse.] 1811. 12o." (Foster, p.68).

The meagre information leaves one uncertain what work is referred to.

1818 ff.—Shelley's translations of Homeric hymns. Dr. Foster mentions Shelley only as forming part of an American reprint of Parnell in 1872 (Foster, p.65).

"49. The First Book of the Iliad, translated by [William John] Blew. 1831." (Foster, p.68).

This book contains also translations of the Batrachomyomachia, the Hymn to the Delian Apollo, and Iliad ii.

1833.—"A Literal Translation of Homer's Iliad. Prepared according to the text of Doctor Kennedy's edition. By a Graduate of the University. New edition, etc. 3 vol Dublin, 1840-33. 12o"

In the Brit. Mus. copy vols. 2 and 3 are dated 1833, and vol. 1, 1840.

1834.—"Homerics [being a translation in verse of Odyssey Book V and Iliad Book III: attempted by Archdeacon Wrangham (Chester? 1834] 8.o"

1835.—"A Literal Translation of the first, second, third, eighth, ninth, tenth, eleventh, and twelfth books of Homer's Odyssey. By a Master of Arts Dublin, 1835. 8o."

Reprinted, London, 1845.

"53. Homer's Iliad. 1841." (Foster, p.68).

I do not know what work is referred to.

1841.—"The first six Books of Homer's Iliad, with an interpaged translation, line for line, and numerous notes. By the Author of "The first six Books of Virgil's Aeneid" on the same plan London,1841. 12o."

1842.—"The Hymns to Apollo, to Aphrodite, to Pan, and others, translated into English verse by W. M. W. Call Lyra Hellenica, 1842. 8o."

1843.—"Translations of two passages of the Iliad [iii.234—244 and vi. 394—502 and a fragment of Kallinos. [By E. C. Hawtrey] London, 1843. 4o."

This may have been omitted as coming in the category of excerpts, but Dr. Foster does not adhere strictly to his own rule in that regard (see numbers 26, 38, 42, 57), and one is inclined to make an exception of Hawtrey's famous hexameters.
