Condition

Good antique condition for its 115 years. Cloth shows general wear with rubbing, bumped and frayed corners, and wear at the spine ends. The front hinge is cracked at the gutter by the title page, but the text block is intact. Page edges and endpapers are age-toned, and interior pages are clean and readable. A lovely reading copy, shelf piece, or gift for a poetry lover.

Please review all photos, as they are part of the description. This is a used antique book; some wear is expected.
