Shelley's poem The Sensitive Plant is a beautiful and tragic poem commemorating the brevity of life and immortality of cyclical nature. Written after death of his son while Percy and Mary Shelley struggled with their grief in Pisa the poem consists of four stanzas with three sections charting the change of seasons. It is set in a garden bursting with blooms but highlights the sensitive plant-a mimosa-with its humble leafy foliage. Human will is nothing in the face of the impartial power of nature and time. First published in Prometheus Unbound and Other Poems 1820 here it has been reproduced with a delicate binding to match its subject. "For the Sensitive Plant has no bright flower; Radiance and odour are not its dower; It loves even like Love its deep heart is full It desires what it has not the Beautiful!" "The Riviere Bindery was one of the most notable and prolific shops in London's West End from about 1840 through 1939" Princeton. Bath-based Bayntun Bindery acquired the firm in 1939 transforming into the "Bayntun-Riviere bindery" which is still in existence and family owned. Robt. Riviere & Son unknown

ref. AQ31250Aberdeen: William Smith & Sons The Bon-Accord Press s.d. 1920 4pp. Original publisher's printed buff wrappers. A trifle creased. The second located copy of an anonymous Scots dialect verse lamenting the collapse of a suspension footbridge spanning the River Dee Aberdeenshire and pleading for philanthropic intervention for its restoration. St Devenick's Bridge colloquially known of the 'Shakkin' Briggie' for its propensity to sway when crossed was constructed in 1836/37 funded by Church of Scotland clergyman George Morison 1758-1845 for the benefit of his parishioners. The bridge was severely damaged by floodwaters in October 1920. Public funds were raised and repairs carried out resulting in the crossing reopening in September 1922. However since that time erosion of the banks of the Dee has swept away portions of the structure and it now stands derelict. OCLC and COPAC together record a single copy NLS. . First edition. 8vo. William Smith & Sons, The Bon-Accord Press, [s.d., 1920?] unknown
