First British Edition. 185 x 120 mm. 7 1/4 x 4 3/4". xv iii 230 pp. <br/> VERY ATTRACTIVE SCARLET POLISHED CALF GILT BY FROST stamp-signed on front flyleaf covers with double fillet border raised bands spine compartments with antique scrolling cornerpieces and centerpiece green and maroon morocco labels richly gilt turn-ins marbled endpapers all edges gilt. Engraved title page. Stewart 140; Livingston 131; Martindell 59. A group of seven leaves lightly foxed otherwise a virtually mint copy inside and out the decorative binding exceptionally bright.<br/> <br/> This is a very pleasing copy in quite an attractive leather binding of a collection of 51 Kipling poems including "Song of the English" "The Rhyme of the Three Sealers" and "The Story of Ung." Day writes that "people uninterested in poetry 'qua' poetry were thrilled by the splendor and spread of empire as glorified in this work. Kipling's Toryism made the mediocre Alfred Austin the poet laureate in 1896 but Kipling was the unofficial laureate of the British empire." One of Britain's best-known writers Rudyard Kipling 1865-1936 is most famous for his works portraying the lives of the native population and colonialists on the Indian subcontinent. He was born in Bombay where his father ran an art school and he lived in India until the age of six. He was sent to school in England but chose to return to the East at 18. He proved to be a prolific author writing novels tales for children and adults and many poems. Kipling's wife was American and they lived for a time in Vermont but from 1896 the couple settled in England. Among his many honors are a Nobel Prize 1907 and the Gold Medal of the Royal Society of Literature 1926 which had previously only been awarded to Scott Meredith and Hardy. Copies of the present book are easy to find but they are not so readily available in reasonably priced pretty bindings like the one offered here. Methuen and Co unknown

First published in the The Pall Mall Gazette and the Pall Mall Budget on May 9th 1895. In the Sussex Edition the poem is dated 1894. ORG No. 634. Rudyard Kipling was initiated into the Lodge of Hope and Perseverance No 782 founded in 1858 under the English Constitution at the Masonic Hall the Jadughar as described in Kim in Anarkali Lahore on 5 April 1886 at the age of twenty. As this was the Lodge into which he was initiated it became his Mother Lodge. A Freemason will always have a particular attachment to the Lodge which saw him enter into Freemasonry even though he may cease to be a member of that particular Lodge. The poem was written some eight years later when he was living in Vermont. Charles Carrington in his The Complete Barrack-room Ballads p.166 reports that it was written in a single day on October 29th 1894 while Conan Doyle was staying with the Kiplings. It celebrates the equality which reigns among Freemasons without distinction of profession rank race or creed and the first two stanzas clearly reflect the diversity of this particular Lodge underscored by the refrain which contrasts the behaviour displayed in public with that shown inside the Lodge. The use of vernacular with the dropped �h� highlights the wide social rankings of the members." - See "The Mother Lodge" by George Kieffer 2017 London: Methuen And Co. Ltd., 36 Essex Street, 1916 . hardcover
