Also included is the first draft of "The Vanity of Human Wishes", and a selection of contributions to poems by other authors. The editor describes the aim of the edition as "to provide a truly critical text in which the characteristics of Johnson's own practices in spelling, punctuation and capitalization are preserved, whilst at the same time his final authoritative revisions --- have been admitted. A feature of Dr Fleeman's extensive annotation is the use throughout of Johnson's own "Dictionary of the English Language" as a guide to the poet's precise meaning.'
