Octavo. 62pp. Printed in black and red with blue initials drawn by Graily Hewitt. Colin Franklin regards this as "a varied and beautiful work" that captures Hornby's design sensibility in which he "always sought a form which suited the text he chose to print" (The Ashendene Press, p.74-5). Very fine in full limp vellum, title in gilt on spine. Housed in a half-morocco pull-off case.
