Descripción:
Sussex: Pear Tree Press, 1902. Edmund Waller (1606-1687) was respected for his command of language and prowess as an orator. The romantic poems featured in this rare edition are among his more sensitive works and form a pleasing contrast to the Royalist verse penned during the English Civil war. The present edition is limited to 300 copies and is printed on hand-made paper with uncut fore and bottom edges. A confident and stylised work. Octavo, quarter cloth with paper label; a near fine copy.

DEDICATION TO * * * What would our modern maids to-day? I watch, and can't conjecture : A dubious tale?—an Ibsen play?— A pessimist Lecture?- I know not. But this, Child, I know : You like things sweet and seemly ; Old-fashioned flowers, odd shapes in Bow, "Auld Robin Gray" (extremely) ; You —with my "Dorothy" —delight In fragrant cedar-presses ; In window-corners warm and bright, In warm, and lilac dresses ; You can still read, at any rate, Charles Lamb and "Evelina" :-- To You, My Dear, I dedicate This "STORY OF ROSINA.". First edition. Octavo, bound in original gilt-decorated red cloth, a fine bright copy.

The classicist explains in his preface that "the origin of this tale is in Demotic Egyptian, in prose, on a fragmentary papyrus dated ‘the first month of winter, in the fifteenth year' of some king unnamed. Palaeographical evidence suggests some date about 100 B.C. ...it so fascinated me that I presently found myself, to the neglect of more urgent duties, putting it into English verse and filling up the gaps in the narrative." 'SETNE KHAMUAS, son of RAMESES, High Priest of PTAH, beneath his garden trees Dwelt with his wife and children; wise was he In Books of power and ancient Masteries. And much he pondered on a tale they told, How NEFREKEPTA, dead in days of old, Held still the Book of HERMES which is THOTH Hid in his tomb, and never loosed his hold...'. Quarto, uncut, with colour-printed frontispiece and woodcut tail-piece by Florence Kingsford…
