Descripci�n

[14], 129pp, [1]. Later red straight-grain half-morocco, marbled paper boards, ruled and lettered in gilt. Lightly rubbed and marked. Marbled endpapers, title page browned. The first edition of poet and Church of England clergyman Moses Browne's (1704- 1787) highly naturalistic angling pastorals that include the first avowed imitation of Milton's 'Lycidas'. The didactic portions are adapted from Izaak Walton's Compleat Angler, a work which Browne was to edit and republish (for the first time since 1676) in 1750 at the suggestion of his friend Samuel Johnson. The nine poems were reprinted under the title Angling Sports in 1773. ESTC records copies at five locations in the British Isles (BL, Cambridge, Leeds, NLS, and Oxford), and a further 11 in North America (California, Harvard, Huntington, Illinois, NYPL, Newberry, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Princeton, Virginia, and Yale).
