Description
London: Printed by T.W. [Thomas Warren] for Ed. [Edward] Husband, 1646. FIRST EDITION. Engraved frontispiece, woodcut headpieces. Contemporary calf, worn, especially at spine, joints somewhat tender; first blank appears to be torn out, leaf with frontispiece repaired, some browning and soiling mostly on edges. Overall a good copy from the library of the Earls of Macclesfield with their dated (1860) bookplate (motto “Sapere aude”) on the paste-down and blind embossed stamp of armorial on first three leaves. First edition. In 1640, King Charles I established the Long Parliament in order to acquire funds for the Bishop’s War against the Scots. However, as soon as the Long Parliament took control, they began dismantling the monarchy’s authority by removing the king’s advisors and sympathizers. The orders and ordinances collected in this copy begin at this crucial moment and cover the duration of the English Civil War from 1642 to 1646. It is therefore an excellent reference source for laws and statutes during the English Civil War. It also contains several matters of Colonial interest, including An Order for advancement of the Plantations in New England; An Order to make the Earl of Warwick Governor of the Plantations in America; An Ordinance against Importation of Whale-oyl; and An additional Committee for ordering Foreign Plantations, among others. Wing provides the name of the printer for this copy and lists several other volumes containing records of orders over a range of years.

Description
London: Humphrey Milford, Oxford University Press, 1922. FIRST EDITION. Tipped in frontispiece portrait and engraved title preceding 116 plates (6 in color). Original publisher’s cloth, gilt lettering, some rubbing on corners; interior excellent. First publication of Blake’s designs for Thomas Gray’s poems, number 16 of 650 copies. The sculptor John Flaxman commissioned the project as a gift for his wife in 1797. Blake produced 116 watercolors for his friend, all of which are reproduced in this limited edition. Gray (1716–1771) was a popular poet in eighteenth-century England; however, due to his self-critical nature, he only published thirteen poems in his lifetime. His poem Elegy Written in a Country Churchyard remains his most well-known work and earned him his popularity and legacy in English literary history. Blake (1757–1827), a poet in his own right as well as an artist, was well-suited for illustrating Gray’s poems, including Elegy, given his romantic style and underpinnings of religion, philosophy, and melancholy.
