8vo, pp. [viii], xl, 276; with list of subscribers and errata leaf; complete with the original blank leaf d4 in the prelims; some gatherings a little browned, but otherwise a very good copy in mid-19th century red half roan over marbled boards, spine lettered in gilt (a bit rubbed but very sound). Inscription dated 1849 on endpapers. Published by Joseph Cottle in 1797, the year before Lyrical Ballads. This is in effect a brother venture to that famous book: Cottle was friends with both Fox and Coleridge, and after he had sold the copyright in both as part of a larger deal with Longmans of London, he found that they were both 'reckoned as nothing', and, having begged them back again, generously wrote off the twenty guineas he had given Fox as well as the thirty given to Wordsworth and Coleridge. Coleridge in fact also subscribed to this book: he is present in the short list of subscribers as 'Mr S.T. Coleridge, Stowey', as is 'Mr Robert Southey', and 'T. Beddoes, M.D.' (father of Thomas Lovell Beddoes). Wordsworth did not subscribe to the book, but he was presented with a copy by Cottle - Coleridge's letter of 8 June 1797 to Cottle sends his friend's acknowledgement and thanks for the gift. Charles Fox (1749-1809) was the son of a wealthy quaker grocer of Falmouth; after an adventurous early life travelling in the northern countries he settled in Bristol, where he kept a bookshop. He is mentioned in Southey's Espriella, and was known, even if only distantly, by the romantic poets who were living in the area in the 1790s.
