First edition. xiv, [10], 192pp. Contemporary gilt-ruled calf. Worn, with some loss to foot of spine, joints cracked, surface wear to boards and edges. Pastedowns sprung. Leaves lightly browned, light scattered spotting. An eighteenth century translation of On The Sublime, a piece of literary criticism completed by an unknown author of Roman-era Greek origin known simply as Longinus in the first century AD. The treatise on aesthetics was translated and edited by English poet Leonard Welsted (bap. 1688 â" 1747), branded one of Pope's 'dunces' after launching attacks on the Scribblerans in 1714. ESTC T118862. Size: 8vo.…

Condizione: Fine. 19, [5]pp., 8vo. With the half-title, an advertisement leaf at the end and a final blank; small tear in the half-title neatly mended; some slight spotting. Neatly bound in modern drab boards with a morocco spine label. First edition of an uncommon poem by Welsted, dedicated to the staunch Whig Richard Steele. This was Welsted s first work to draw the attention of the Scriblerians. It fiercely attacks Robert Harley at the time the Tory dominance of British politics collapsed in the aftermath of the death of Queen Anne, and it accurately prophesizes the failure of a Jacobite invasion and the end of Harley s political career. And strong Delusions, nursed with Care Retard a while the Vengeance just; But when th enchanted Scene is o re And Reason reassumes her Power, Fall, Traytor, fall you must. Harley is said to have written a reply, and his friends in the newly-formed Scriblerus Club - Arbuthnot, Gay, Parnell, Pope, and Swift, never forgot Welsted s affront. Welsted was memorably enrolled as one of Pope s dunces with the lines Flow, Welsted , flow, like thine inspirer Beer; Though stale, not ripe; though thin, yet never clear; So sweetly mawkish , and so smoothly dull. . . .

Folio, pp. 16; disbound. First and only edition of one of Welsted's most appealing poems, describing his official residence in the Tower of London, where he held a post as a clerk in the Ordnance Office. 'An engaging poem in octosyllabic couplets where he dwells with relish on his furniture, the family portraits (including his bewhiskered grandsire, the antiquary [Thomas Staveley, of Leicester]), the view from an alcove on the roof, and the parlour furnished for a levée of humble bards: altogether a well-appointed dwelling except for the emptiness of its cellar' (Oxford DNB). The library includes 'Garth, Dryden, Cavendish in a Row; And Durfey, for a Joke, below.' Foxon W302. A fine copy of a scarce poem: ESTC lists about a dozen copies.…

8vo, pp. lxiv, 255; a good copy in contemporary panelled calf (very slight wear to the tips of the spine). First edition: the author's principal collection of verse. Leonard Welsted (1688-1747) was educated at Westminster School and Trinity College, Cambridge, where he never acquired a degree. He began to publish verse when he was in his early twenties, and after some vacillation allied himself with the Whigs, becoming a kind of secretary or assistant to Richard Steele; he later held a minor government post, and supplemented his salary by literary patronage. Welsted is now chiefly remembered for his quarrels with Pope, which were carried on with virulence on both sides. A Grub-Street contemporary, Bezaleel Morrice, characterized Welsted's poetry, with some justification, as 'modish', but there is evidence that his works were read with interest by superior writers such as James Thomson and Oliver Goldsmith. Of particular note in this volume is the long critical essay with which the book begins, discussing such topics as taste, wit, genius, and the rules of poetry; included are comments on Dryden, Milton, Settle, and Cowley. Included in this essay is a passing hit at Pope, for a line in his Essay on Criticism ('And what now Chaucer is, shall Dryden be'): 'But whoever this writer is, he certainly judg'd the matter wrong'. This is in fact a slight misquotation, as Pope had written 'And such as Chaucer is'. Pope, who was notoriously quick to be irked, did not fail to respond. Also included in this volume are pastorals, occasional poems, translations from Horace, Ovid, and Tibullus, a few prologues and epilogues, and a rather charming poem called 'Apple-Pye', which Welsted later said was his first attempt at verse. Foxon p. 677; Guerinot, Pamphlet Attacks on Pope, pp. 88-90. Provenance. Early armorial bookplate on the verso of the title-page of John Orlebar (1697-1765), of the Middle Temple, who was MP for Bedford 1727-34.…
