"The Poems of Francois Villon is the latest literary achievement of Lucius M. Beebe, special student at the University. This translation of the works of the great French poet will be published very shortly by the Brimmer Publishing Company.
The volume will include a prose translation of "Le Grand Testament", with a parallel text in the original French, and a bibliography. Among the other features of the work will be some of the best known ballades and various poems in translation by Swinburne, Rossetti, Payne, and other well known writers.
