Wise" (1909); (2) "Letters hitherto uncollected, by Samuel Taylor Coleridge", ed. by Colonel W.F. Prideaux (1913); (3) "Epistle to a canary" by Elizabeth Barrett Browning, ed. by Gosse (1913) [lacks cover], with a letter from Gosse to Wise dated 3.6.1913; (4) "Letters from Algernon Charles Swinburne to John Morley", ed. by Gosse (1914); (5) "Poems" by Swinburne, ed. by Wise, issued (with some changes of poem titles) as "Lady Maisie's bairn and other poems" (1915) [lacks cover]; (6) "Letters to Robert Browning and other correspondents, by Elizabeth Barrett Browning", ed. by Wise (1916); (7) "To Elizabeth Barrett Browning and other verses, by Walter Savage Landor" (1917) [2 copies]; (8) "A modern Greek idyll, by Walter Savage Landor" (1917) [2 copies]; (9) "An address to the fellows of Trinity College, Oxford on the alarm of invasion, by Walter Savage Landor" (1917).
