Hardcover. First edition. Green cloth boards gilt with dampstain at the top corner affecting the front pastedown and the first few pages. Warmly inscribed by a previous owner with a slightly cocked spine and light rubbing, very good. Inscription reads, "They say that to love is to sorrow, That to trust is to be deceived; And to draw is to wake on the morrow, If the wise ones may be believed. Then let me love those who will never, Us never, fire back sullen looks, But will smile at me, ever and ever, My constant, best-loved books." -A. D. F.
