8vo, pp. [vi], 118, [2] contents; without the half title; rebound in full dark blue morocco antique, spine and inner dentelles gilt, edges gilt. First edition: the author's second collection of verse; about a dozen poems have been reprinted from the volume published five years before, but in some cases there have been substantial changes. Among the new poems are a translation of Virgil's first eclogue, Poetry, a Cure for Ambition, The Force of Musick (addressed 'to Mr. Morelli'), and To Belinda in Flanders, written in 1718. Theobald's name appears at the end of his dedication to the Hon. Charles Fairfax, in which he reveals that literature is not his true vocation: 'The Poems, Sir, I have now the Honour to address to You, are the Products of leisure Hours. And as Physick, not Poetry, is my Profession, so I hope you will not think I am ambitious of being reputed an Author.' Foxon p. 789. ESTC lists four copies only: Bodleian, Clark, Princeton and National Library of Australia.

8vo, pp. [xxiv], 202; one leaf of dedication loose, else a good copy, in contemporary mottled calf, gilt, spine gilt (some wear). First edition of the author's first book. Henry Travers is commonly listed, e.g. in the ESTC and WorldCat, with the date 'fl. 1731', as if nothing were known of him aside from the publication of this book. It is in fact possible to retrieve many details of his life, most particularly from Anonymiana (1809), a posthumously published work by the antiquary Samuel Pegge (1704-1796), edited by the scholar-printer John Nichols. Travers was born in the West Country, and received his early schooling in Tiverton, in Devon, where he was a friend and classmate of Thomas Hayter (1702-1762), later the Bishop of London. His subsequent education was at Queens' College, Cambridge, which is no doubt where he first met Pegge, who was at St. John's; one of the poems in this volume, a paraphrase of Joshua VI, 20 ('Irregular Ode'), is in fact by Pegge, though his name does not appear. Travers then became a Church of England clergyman, and his first post was as a vicar in West Walton, in Norfolk. He subsequently moved to the village of Upwell, near Wisbech, on the Cambridgeshire border, before going on to the parish of Ilkley, in West Yorkshire. By this time his friend Hayter was Archdeacon of York, and it was with his assistance that Travers became the curate at Nunburnholme in the East Riding. Travers died in 1754, and was succeeded by Laurence Sterne, who added the curacy to his position as vicar of Sutton-on-the-Forest. Pegge describes one eccentricity of his friend: 'Mr. Travers had an extreme aversion to a pig, when brought to table; but what is very strange, could eat it when cut to pieces.' This volume, published when Travers must have been just short of his thirtieth birthday, displays a fairly wide range of interests. Included are a number of occasional poems and Biblical paraphrases, as well as 'The Pleasures of Angling', translated from a neo-Latin poem in the popular anthology Musae Anglicanae. The longest pieces are a modernisation of Chaucer's Shipman's Tale, and a translation of Book III of the Iliad. With a 16-page list of subscribers, including many Cambridge names. The dedication in verse is to the Duke of Bedford. The first leaf of the dedication is a cancel (loose from stub), adding the engraved arms of the dedicatee; as first printed, this leaf had no arms. Foxon p. 820, apparently suggesting that some copies of this book have a frontispiece but this appears to be an error, as no copies with a plate have been traced.

Erstausgabe
8vo, engraved frontispiece and pp. [viii], 320; [353]-376, [8] advertisements; bound in old sprinkled calf, gilt, rebacked, spine gilt, red morocco labels; edges gilt, marbled endpapers. A sound copy. First edition of one of the most important miscellanies of the early 18th century, almost certainly edited by Pope, as was first proposed by Norman Ault in his New Light on Pope (1948). Most notable here is the first appearance of Pope's Rape of the Locke [sic], in two cantos (pp. 353-376); the poem was subsequently expanded to five cantos, and printed separately in 1714. 'The story of its composition is well known. John Caryll, something of a mediating figure among the Catholic gentry of the time, was sufficiently disturbed by an estrangement caused between the Petre and Fermor families when Robert Lord Petre cut a love-lock from the pretty head of Arabella Fermor that he asked Pope to write something to make a jest of the incident, 'and laugh them together'.' (Maynard Mack, p. 248). There is no evidence that Pope had ever met Miss Fermor, portrayed here as Belinda. The poem adopts the conventions of mock-heroic, and represents, in an essentially affectionate though sometimes daring way, the absurdities of the fashionable world, where trifles were liable to be magnified to epic proportions. Six other pieces by Pope are first printed in this volume: (i) The First Book of Statius his Thebaid (pp. 1-56); (ii) The Fable of Vertumnus and Pomona; from the fourteenth book of Ovid's Metamorphoses (pp. 129-136); (iii) To a Young Lady, with the Works of Voiture (pp. 137-142); (iv) Two copies of Verses, written some years since in imitation of the style of two persons of quality (pp. 143-146); (v) To the Author of a Poem, intitled Successio (pp. 147-148); and (vi) Verses design'd to be prefix'd to Mr. Lintott's Miscellany (pp. 174-175). The last of these is not signed, but was claimed by Pope in a letter to his friend Henry Cromwell, first printed by Edmund Curll in 1727. The volume also includes contributions from Matthew Prior, John Gay, William Broome, Edmund Smith, Elijah Fenton, and several others. There are in addition two modernisations of Chaucer by the late Thomas Betterton, who died in 1710. Pope had known Betterton since his boyhood, and it is likely that he had a hand in polishing the two poems for publication, as he was paid £5 7s 6d for his efforts, a sum he turned over to Betterton's widow, a day or two before her own death. Various scholars have claimed that the gap in pagination in this volume can be explained by Pope's late withdrawal of Windsor Forest and the Ode for Musick, which he had decided to publish separately. Foxon rejects this hypothesis, and argues convincingly that the irregularity was caused by the fact that portions of the volume were printed separately, so that Pope could rewrite in proof, as had been done with Tonson's miscellany in 1709. Griffith 6; Case 260 (1)(a); Rothschild 1565.

8vo, pp. [iv], lv, [v], 233, [1] advertisements; nicely bound in contemporary blue straight-grain morocco, spine gilt; drab endpapers, gilt edges. First edition of an anthology of translations by Robert Bland (1779-1825) and J.H. Merivale (1779-1844). Bland had briefly taught Byron at Harrow; and Merivale married the headmaster's daughter, so they were both associated with the school. This collection 'attracted considerable notice', according to Bland's biographer in ODNB. It includes, on pp. 99-100, a translation into English of Samuel Johnson's Greek epitaph on Goldsmith. The collection was published in a second edition in 1813.

8vo, pp. xxxii, 312; contemporary calf, discreetly gilt with double fillet lines on covers, with small gilt corner ornaments; rebacked in recent times with new gilt spine. Sole edition of one of the most unusual poetical miscellanies of the early 18th century, published by subscription to replenish the habitually empty pockets of the editor. The dishevelled life of Richard Savage (1697/8-1743) was dominated by his vexed relationship with his supposed mother, the Countess of Macclesfield. Savage's benefactor in this venture was Aaron Hill, a writer then very much at the centre of London's literary life. Samuel Johnson describes Hill's generosity: 'He encouraged a Subscription to a Miscellany of Poems in a very extraordinary Manner, by publishing his Story in the Plain Dealer, with some affecting Lines, which he asserts to have been written by Mr. Savage upon the Treatment received by him from his Mother, but of which he himself was the Author, as Mr. Savage afterwards declared. These Lines, and the Paper in which they were inserted, had a very powerful Effect upon all but his Mother, whom, by making her Cruelty more publick, they only hardened in her Aversion. Mr. Hill not only promoted the Subscription to the Miscellany, but furnished likewise the greatest Part of the Poems of which it is composed, and particularly The Happy Man, which he published as a Specimen. The Subscriptions of those whom these Papers should influence to patronise Merit in Distress, without any other Solicitation, were directed to be left at Button's Coffee-House; and Mr. Savage going thither a few Days afterwards, without any Expectation of any Effect from his Proposal, found to his Surprise seventy Guineas, which had been sent him in consequence of the Compassion excited by Mr. Hill's pathetic Representation.' Savage went on to include in his miscellany about a dozen of his own poems, including an opening piece on the recovery of the Duchess of Rutland from smallpox. The sum mentioned by Johnson, if accurate, must have been arrived at more by the artifice of some rich friends than by an outpouring of public sympathy, as the two-page list of subscribers contains only about a hundred names, among them several of those who had contributed poems, such as John Dyer, David Mallet, William Popple, Richard Steele, Martha Sansom (better known under her maiden name, Martha Fowke), and Edward Young; Aaron Hill himself took six copies. Most of these authors could not have been expected to contribute more than a token sum. The present copy belonged to one of those who could have afforded to make a significant present: it has the contemporary bookplate of John Brownlow (1690-1754), the whig MP who in 1718 was given an Irish peerage as Viscount Tyrconnell; he also inherited the splendid Belton House, near Grantham. Brownlow's aunt (his mother's sister) was Anna, Countess of Maccesfield, Savage's alleged mother. No doubt in consequence of this, Savage dedicated perhaps his best-known single work, the poem called The Wanderer (1729) to Tyrconnell, with a dedication which (maybe tactfully) did not mention the dedicatee's close connexion with the poet, but does imply that he had already had personal discourse with him: 'To be admitted into the honour of your Lordship's conversation is to be elegantly introduced into the most instructive as well as entertaining parts of literature'. In fact. The Wanderer is not merely dedicated to Tyrconnell, it begins with an address to him: Fain wou'd my verse, Tyrconnel, boast thy Name, Brownlow, at once my Subject and my Fame! It seems quite possible, or even probable, that this copy, with the Brownlow and Belton House bookplates, was given by Savage (or his friends) to Tyrconnell, and that this initiated the patronage to which Savage referred three years later in the dedication to The Wanderer. There are also two contemporary manuscript corrections in this copy, on pp. 162 and 198, which could well be authorial, or at least authorised, as they make sense of lines which otherwise would lack coherence. Case 336.

8vo, pp. xxix, [i], [iv], 366; rather a tired copy in contemporary panelled calf (rubbed, some wear to corners). Second edition (though not so designated); substantially enlarged from the edition of 1731, so as to be virtually a new book. Most of the poems from the edition of 1731 are here reprinted. The most notable additions include The Miller of Trompington, or the Reeve's Tale from Chaucer, and a translation of Books I-II of the Iliad, to accompany the version of Book III already published. The list of subscribers (on 23pp) includes many Oxford and Cambridge names, but the preponderance are from the Yorkshire area, including Laurence Sterne's uncle, Rev. Jaques Sterne, 'Archdeacon of Cleaveland and Precentor of York'. Travers's old friend Thomas Hayter, by now Archdeacon and Prebendary of York, subscribed for six copies. At the end of the preliminaries is a cancel of pp. 123-4; the cancellandum is still in place where printed (Q2), and reveals that the reason for the cancel is that one line of verse had been inadvertently omitted on p. 123. Foxon p. 820.
