Memorial bookplate of Caroline Furness Jayne. Bookseller's ticket of Kerr & Anderson, Glasgow. The best and most complete Elzevir edition of Horace with Daniel Heinsius's notes and commentary. Previous editions had appeared in 1612 (in octavo format) and earlier (the first in 1605). This is one of the earliest of the Elzevir 32mos, the format having been introduced in 1629 and used regularly thereafter. "These editions (1612, 1629, 1653) were supervised by Daniel Heinsius, and were first printed in office. Plantin 1604-1610. They are very elegant. In purchasing the edition of 1629, care must be taken that it corresponds exactly with the following description: 'Edition fortjolie, et plus recherchée des curieux quand les trois parties sont rassembles. La première partie ne contient que le texte d'Horace avec deux titres, l'un gravé, l'autre imprimé. La seconde contient les remarques d'Heinsius, avec un titre imprimé; et la troisième renferme les deux livres 'de Satyra Horatiana,' avec un faux titre, ou page perdue, à la tête.' M. Renouard, however, observes that a fourth part is necessary: in fact, he thus specifies the four. 1. the engraved title-page; 2. the printed title 1629 [not bound in this copy]; 3. a title, with the date of 1628, as appertaining exclusively to the text, and on this account, suppressed in many copies; 4. a title Animadversiones et Notae, dated 1629, and besides these 4 leaves a false title, De Satyra Horatiana" (Dibdin).
