The first scholarly translation of the work into English directly from the original Greek, contemporarily bound in attractive diced russia, here in the corrected sixth edition. Originally published in 1770, this translation by the Langhorne brothers proved popular and went through numerous editions. Its extensive footnotes provide an unobtrusive gloss to the text. The poet John Langhorne (1735-1779) found an admirer in Wordsworth, who described Langhorne's Country Justice (1774) as "the first Poem. that fairly brought the Muse into the Company of common life" (letter of 25 January 1837). 6 volumes, octavo (215 x 126 mm). Contemporary diced russia, smooth spines lettered and ruled in gilt, blind cross-hatch tooling studded with rings in compartments, single gilt fillet ruling covers, board edges, and turn-ins, marbled endpapers and edges, red silk bookmarkers. Engraved frontispiece in first volume. Spines uniformly sunned to pale brown, uneven discolouring of covers, scattered light internal foxing, vol. 5 with light crease at a few lower margins and two neatly repaired closed tears at pp. 163/4. A very good set.
