A Comparative Review of the Opinions of Mr. James Boaden, (Editor of the Oracle)... .[2] 59 [1]pp. Original cream wraps with black lettering on cover, authors and publishing date entered by hand. "It is not because the style or the matter of Mr. Boaden's Critical Examination of the Shakespeare MSS. appears to possess any intrinsic merit, that it is made the subject of consideration in the following pages. Much less is this slight attempt dictated by any apprehension that the authenticity of those MSS. will be materially affected, either by the arguments of such an examiner, or the detection of his sophistry. But when an individual pretends to direct the taste of the public, when relying on the fancied ingenuity and importance of his criticism, he attempts to depreciate real merit, it becomes, at least, necessary to examine the purity of his motives, and the consistency of his conduct. The authenticity of the MSS. in the hands of Mr. Ireland, must ultimately be refereed to a higher tribunal" (First paragraph). "The "Shakespeare MSS." are the Ireland forgeries. Sometimes ascribed to Matthew Wyatt." (Folger Shakespeare Library) 2.
