RALEIGH, Sir Walter. The Poems of Sir Walter Raleigh: Now First Collected. With a biographical & critical Introduction by Sir Egerton Brydges, K. J. Printed at the Private Press at Lee Priory: By Johnson and Warwick. 1813.
Large 4to. Later full calf, rebacked, retaining most of the original spine with raised bands, lettered in gilt, boards ornamented in bling, marbled endpapers; pp. viii, the initial two blank], 37, [3], 70, [2, index], two (different) title-pages in red and black, the first with wood-engraved vignette, all pages within typographical triple-rules; light spotting only to the final gathering, otherwise a crisp copy.
First edition, one of only 100 copies printed. "This was the first attempt to collect into one volume, all the poetical pieces said to have been written by Sir W. Raleigh" (Brushfield). "Sir Egerton Brydges (1762-1837) was an English bibliographer, antiquary, genealogist, Member of Parliament, and one of the original members of the Roxburghe Club. At his home he set up the Lee Priory Press in 1813 and enticed Johnson (the author of 'Typographica') & Warwick, who had worked for Bensley, to work for him to produce "reprints of some of the most curious tracts of former days, in which there shall be an attempt to add beauty of typography and wood-engraving. The books have an agreeable elegance, and at the time of their publication they were highly admired" (Roderick Cave, Pivate Press).
Brushfield, Raleigh, 280.
