Story of a "Chinese Idol, which tradition had invested with supernatural powers" -- at the base of the idol, is inscribed, in couplets: Who owns me shall great weath possess, While flattered by the World's caress. Who would from my dread power be free Must keep me under lock and key I work at midnights mystic hour The darkness hides, but aids my power Before the sun I must take flight: I'm impotent to work in light A solid copy internally, but in a worn and soiled original binding. Scarce in any condition. Bestandsnummer des Verk�ufers 014268
