8vo, (192mm.), viii,clxxx,141; 320,[1]p. Engraved frontispiece portrait, numerous engraved head and tailpiece vignettes, some slight spotting to the text. A worn copy but in fair state given that it is bound in the original drab-olive boards, albeit they are somewhat worn and the joints are worn but holding, printed back labels,… previous owners signature: of Robert Scott Fettes, dated 10 June 1859 on the front free endleaf on each vol. Later bookplate of Peter Isaac. (Isaac `checklist' in William Bulmer, the fine printer in context 378; Jackson, Annotated list of the publications of Thomas Frognall Dibdin 12; Windle & Pippin, Thomas Frognall Dibdin A9a) This was Bulmer's first piece of printing for Dibdin and while the Reverend's scholarship might not meet today's higher standards (the text of this edition, for instance, is taken from the Alsop 1639 edition which Dibdin excoriates in his introduction) he did bring forth some of the printer's finest work. (Isaac p57).
