Small Quarto. Published several times within the same year, through at least nine printings that we are aware of. 28pp. Bound in earlier 1/4 calf over marbled paper covered boards, endpapers perhaps a bit newer than 19th century binding. A very nice copy of Addison's thoughts and views on the ancient poets and the modern contemporary poets of his time.
