Boards a little marked, spine covering partially-defective with areas of loss, particularly to head, some wear to corners. The privately-printed first appearance of Philip Yorke, Viscount Royston?s translation of the sole surviving poem popularly (although perhaps spuriously) attributed to grammarian and commentator Lycophron. ?in the summer of 1806, about 100 copies were printed, and, though the circulation was so limited, the extraordinary merit of the execution soon acquired him a reputation among the learned?
