Upton's edition was the first attempt at an original-spelling and an annotated text. "The extensive notes tracing sources and identifying historical personages are still valuable; all later annotators are indebted to Upton's erudition." Radcliffe Spenser and the Tradition: English Poetry 1579-1830 William Kent was a skilled designer and decorator but a poor painter and draughtsman and despite their energy and directness his designs for The Faerie Queene are not wholly successful they were severely criticised by Horace Walpole in his Anecdotes of Painting in England. But the subjects represented contain many interesting reflections of Kent's involvement with picturesque gothic architecture and garden design including such romantic structures as the Hermitage and Merlins Cave a thatched mock-gothic building housing a library for Queen Caroline at Richmond. John Moore Paget of Cranmore Hall Somerset inherited from his father a "library of curious and valuable books and a decided taste for bibliology. A book-hunter from his youth his constant delight in after life was to search old book-stalls and add from time to time some scarce or quaint old work or rare engraving to his increasing collection."

1923réf. 33330950Waltham Saint Lawrence Berkshire: Golden Cockerel Press 1923. Limited Edition. Hardcover. Near fine. White Ethelbert. One of 350 copies on paper duodecimo size 49 pp. Edmund Spenser 1552/3 to 1599 is probably best known for his epic poem "The Faerie Queene" an ode to Elizabeth I. Even today he is considered one of the greatest poets of the English language. This work "The Wedding Songs" is a publication uniting two works which were published a year apart both dealing with love and romance. According to "Chanticleer" this is the first work of the Press to be illustrated with wood-engravings; however they go on to state that "there is no great feeling of harmony between the engravings and the type" p. 16. We find the three wood-engravings charming; Ethelbert White 1892-1972 was a founding member of the English Wood Engraving Society beginning his career with water colour but being introduced to wood-engraving in 1920. ___DESCRIPTION: Quarter linen white paper spine label with black lettering blue paper sides over boards fore- and bottom edges uncut the frontispiece one of three wood engravings and the only one in three colours rust green and yellow the other two only in rust; Caslon type on hand-made unbleached Arnold paper duodecimo size 7 3/8" by 4 1/2" pagination: 1-8 9-46 47 final wood-engraving 48 colophon 49 publisher's device; no. 329 of the 350 copies on paper per the bibliography; note that the colophon states 320 copies on paper there were an additional 25 copies on Japanese vellum. ___CONDITION: Volume near fine with clean boards perfectly straight corners with a hint of rubbing a strong square text block with solid hinges the interior is clean and bright and entirely free of prior owner markings; some sunning to the margins of the board edges and some offsetting and light foxing to the endpapers. ___CITATION: Chanticleer no. 14. ___POSTAGE: International customers please note that additional postage may apply as the standard does not always cover costs; please inquire for details. ___Swan's Fine Books is pleased to be a member of the ABAA ILAB and IOBA and we stand behind every book we sell.

The Mutabilitie Cantos consists of two complete cantos and parts of a third usually considered a potential Book VII first published in 1609.
