Part 2 still has separate title page dated 1612 or 1613 stop-press variants and R3r catchword reads "And". Pagination and register are continuous. The poem was to have been a religious-moral-political allegory in 12 books each consisting of the adventures of a knight representing a particular moral virtue. And was presented to Queen Elizabeth 1 in 1589 probably sponsored by Walter Raleigh. Foundational edition for the study of Spenserian poetry combining his major allegorical and pastoral works. Essential for literary historians scholars of Elizabethan literature. ND Mathew Lownes hardcover
