8vo Fine copy. Very scarce Printed by lithography on japon, the eleven text pages with richly coloured and decorated initials and borders in the manner of an illuminated manuscript. While Dreyfus, McKitterick and Rendall state that the book was "only supervised in its technical production" by Francis Meynell, we feel sure that he must have designed the binding, so strongly reminiscent of his own edition of Beedome issued in the following year. Full limp vellum with leather thongs, title within flourished cartouche in gilt on upper cover.
