12mo. Stuart Tate notes that Colman has captured a more positive view of Falstaff showing both love and light. His delightful poems are often acccompanied with illustrations such as Two Parsons who writes: Adam and Eve were, at the World's beginning,---Ashame'd of nothing, till they took to sinning.with sorrow big, they sought the Fig, to cool their blushes, with its banging leaves. A remarkablly easy poem to read for the modern reader with humor that delighted readers for over two centuries. xvi, 217 pages, Bound in full polished calf, boards ruled in gilt, raised bands, brown morocco spine label gilt, compartments fully decorated in gilt, short split to upper joint near foor but not broken through to endpapers.
