About this Item

Later edition. Original printed wrappers with a woodcut depicting the nativity to the upper cover (signed 'Lee' in the cut). 8pp. A very good copy, the binding a little delicate but secure and with traces of having previously been bound within a larger volume to the spine. The contents with a touch of toning are otherwise clean throughout and remain free from any previous owners' inscriptions or stamps. A poetic celebration of the nativity by an unnamed eighteenth-century author, embellished with a charming, naive woodcut. The work first appeared under a slightly different title c.1750 (ESTC N65956), although only early nineteenth-century copies, such as the present example, are recorded in British institutions. Further details and images for any of the items listed are available on request. Lucius Books welcomes direct contact with our customers.
