Fourth Edition, Greatly Enlarged and Corrected. 3/4 modern brown leather with gilt lettering and 5 raised bands to spine, with 4 ornaments. Dark cloth over boards.. Very Good. Imperial octavo (oversized). Boards are 117/8" by 8 1/2", paper is 11"x 7 1/2" with wide margins. Lovely marbeled endpapers, with 2 new blank preliminary leaves in both volumes. Original half-titles in both volumes. Plate and specimen leaf (p. 166) present in vol. 1. Some foxing to first and last few original pages, diminishing quickly, a bit more noticeable on v 2. Light fingermarks on upper corners of some pages. vol. 1 xiii, 562 p. vol. 2 579 p. w/ 1 p. corrigenda. Large paper copies limited to 250 (Dibdin's Reminscences, p. 213). Considered the best of the editions of this work, adding the best of both Hebrew bibles and editions of the early church fathers. An attractive set.
