Thomas Babington Macaulay's excellent compendium of Roman narrative poetry consists of works both tragedian and dramatic, which were popular for centuries in Ancient Rome.

An acclaimed compilation which has seldom left print since it was first published in 1842, Lays of Ancient Rome refers to the 'lay' - another term for a narrative poem. A total of four lengthy poems are present in this edition, together with a scholarly introduction by the author himself, who also translated the poems. All are dramatizations of events, or popular myths, set during the time of the early Roman Republic.

Wonderful for their insight into Roman society and dramatic lore, Lays of Ancient Rome has for years been a supplementary text in classics and literature school courses. Although generally martial in subject matter, the poems emphasize virtues such as courage, self-sacrifice, and a commitment to justice.

Poorly Packaged
Scent: Almond Cocoa Butter
The soap is fine. The lotion seems thinner than what I have ordered in the past, but it will do. I've gotten the impression that Greenwich Trading is no longer making the Almond Cocoa version, so no doubt the stock is not new, which probably explains the viscosity. I was expecting that to be the case, so I'm not complaining about the lotion. The reason I'm writing this review is to ask the seller, JumpStart Goods, to make sure that Amazon packages the bundle of bottles in a box. The bottles were packaged together in a very thin (crisp and easily ripped) plastic bag. Then someone--the seller or Amazon--put the plastic-wrapped bundle in a thin Amazon pouch (one of those thin white and yellow envelope-like pouches) and expected it to endure the shipping process. Of course it didn't! When the envelope arrived, the bottles, which had broken out of the plastic bag, were rattling around inside the Amazon pouch, and the pump on the lotion bottle had broken. Fortunately, there was no leak, and I can put the lotion in an almost-empty bottle of the lotion that I already have--in other words, use it as a refill. I also need to mention that the package was held up several days in shipping. I assume that folks at UPS had noticed some issues with the package and had done their best to rectify the situation. Ironically, the same day that this envelope arrived, another Amazon order arrived in a secure box. That order was a tiny 1-inch paint brush. At least a hundred 1-inch paint brushes, or a bundle of soap and lotion, could have fit in that box!
