Cloth, small 4to, gilt cover device and title, top edge gilt, others untrimmed, 26 cm, viii, 268 pp. From the preface: "The collection which numbers nearly 5,000 books and pamphlets, has been classified under the following headings : Philology, Proverbs, Miscellaneous Works English and Foreign, and Music. As far as possible the books have been alphabetically arranged according to authors, cross-references being given from pseudonyms to the author s name�The Philology section includes, besides dictionaries and works relating to languages, books on other subjects written in dialect. Among these are examples of various groups of languages : Romance, Scandinavian, Teutonic, Celtic, Slavonic, Ugrian, Semitic, etc.; besides Indian, Chinese, African, Australian and Polynesian. The larger number of these works are in European dialects, but the lesser known and consequently rarer examples from Africa and the East are also represented.The Proverb section comprises Servian, Finnish, Hungarian, Gipsy, Turkish, Maltese, Persian, Hindustani, Tamil, Chinese, Egyptian, Yoruba (including the Ewe), and Maori proverbs and sayings, in addition to the more popular collections. As many of the works on proverbs contain emblems, maxims or apophthegms, and epitaphs, all works on these subjects are included in the Proverb section. Some works wholly relating to proverbs, but in dialect, will be found in the Proverb section, cross-references being given at the end of Philology. The section English Miscellaneous Works contains the guide books used by Mr. Lean during his travels, many of which are rendered additionally interesting from the fact of their containing his manuscript notes." Very Good.
