BYRON, GEORGE GORDON, LORD.--English Bards, and Scotch Reviewers. A Satire . . . London: Printed for James Cawthorn . . . [1809.] _12mo, green straight-grain morocco, gilt back, gilt top, uncut edges, by Bedford._
Presumably the second edition, with the misprint "Aulhor," line 4 of the Preface, corrected. A thick paper copy.
The type of the title-page is larger and heavier than in the preceding edition; the ornament above the imprint is two arrow-like figures joined by a slender thread, whereas in the first edition it is two parallel lines, the upper much the heavier of the two. "Printed" here begins with a large "P" and "James Cawthorn" is in larger type.
The text is reset throughout. The ornament on B1 recto has here a star-like centre; in the first edition it is an elongated diamond. The parallel head-lines beginning on page 2 are here heavier. On page 5, line 47, "wizard" is spelled with one "z"; in the first edition with two. "Dispatch" in the same line is spelled with an "i"; in the first with an "e." Other slight variations of punctuation, etc., are observable on nearly every page.
