Shelley Percy B.
The Cenci. A tragedy in five acts
Livorno Italy: printed for C. and J. Ollier London 1819. First edition 8vo in 4s pp. xiv 104; bound without the initial blank leaf in later full blue straight-grain morocco double gilt-ruled borders on covers enclosing a blindstamped roll gilt-decorated spine in 6 compartments gilt-lettered direct in 1 a.e.g.; nice copy. Printed in an edition of only 250 copies. Shelley had been fascinated by the lurid story of Beatrice Cenci and Guido's portrait of her as seen in the Columna palace at Rome and originally intended the latter to be copied as a frontispiece for this book. He worked exceptionally fast on his version of the tragedy starting in May and ending in August of his annus mirabilis the same year he wrote Prometheus Unbound The Masque of Anarchy and the 'Ode to the West Wind.' The book is excellently produced well printed on thick laid paper: "It has a few errors of the press incidental to the Italian compositors' ignorance of English . but on the whole it seems to me a preferable text to the second edition -- a text more like the absolute production of Shelley" Foreman. This is the only book of Shelley's to reach a second edition in his lifetime. It is dedicated to Leigh Hunt. Forman p. 56; Wise p. 51; Ashley Library V p. 69. <br/><br/> printed for C. and J. Ollier, London unknown books

"We Pity the Plumage But Forget the Dying Bird." An Address to the People on the Death of the Princess Charlotte
London: "Reprinted for Thomas Rodd" 1843. First edition. Fine. 8vo. Gatherings stitched; red morocco slipcase. According to Wise: "In 1843 when advertising the present pamphlet for sale Rodd asserted that it was a facsimile reprint of an alleged original edition of which the author had printed twenty copies in 1816. No example of this mysterious original has ever been unearthed; no trace of it beyond Rodd's own statement has ever been discovered; and no mention of any kind either of its printing or distribution is to be found in the correspondence of Shelley or any of his friends. My own opinion is that no original ever existed that the private impression of twenty copies was a myth and that Rodd's so-called facsimile reprint of 1843 is in fact the actual princeps of the Address" Ashley V p.64.
