It is divided into three sections, headed: 'Editions of authority, of middle authority and of no authority. The latter includes Rowe's edition (with presumably the biography) of 1709. The British Museum set bears MS. notes of S.T. Coleridge. All volumes bound in contemporary calf, all joints had been sympathetically repaired by the owner and quite sturdy, chipping to spine ends and overall general wear, internally quite clean without foxing.
