The Child's Latin Library, London: Printed and sold by John Marshall, [ca. 1800]. 16 volumes (only?), 56 x 43mm., full-page woodcut illustrations (text of vols. 3 and 4 detached from binding but stitching strong), contemporary stiff boards with old oval title pasted on covers (corners rubbed).
Bondy mentions that Irene Winterstein had this set in her collection. "In that version of great rarity, a bird in a cage becomes 'avis intro caveam'; infants in those far-off days must have been very learned indeed" (Bondy p. 60). (16)
