MARVELL, Andrew (1621-1678). Miscellaneous Poems. London: Robert Boulter, 1681.
2o (288 x 192 mm). Engraved frontispiece of Marvell within eight-sided frame, title with woodcut printer's device, R2-T1 and U2-X2 cancelled as usual to suppress three long poems on Oliver Cromwell (these leaves are present only in the BL and Huntington copies). (Portrait remargined, small clean tear to lower inner margin of title and "To the Reader" leaf.) IN A FINE INLAID BINDING of olive morocco, upper and lower covers with inlaid red morocco rectangle gilt letterd with author and title, elaborate inlays of plum, green and tan morocco to represent ribbons and small sprays of flowers and violets filling the covers, spine gilt-lettered, edges gilt, by Riviere & Son. Provenance: Roderick Terry (bookplate) sold in Part III of his sale, Anderson Galleries, New York, 14 February 1935, lot 263 -- purchased from John Howell, San Francisco, 5 November 1969. Exhibited: Grolier Club, 'This powerfull rime,' 1975, no. 29.
FIRST EDITION of the principal collection of Marvell's verse, edited by his widow, who in her prefatory address to the reader asserts that "all these Poems...are Printed according to the exact Copies of my late dear Husband, under his own Hand-Writing, being found since his death among his other Papers..." (The editor of Edmund Curll's 1726 collected edition claimed that Marvell was never married, but this has been discredited.) In this volume are first printed most of Marvell's best-known poetry, including "To His Coy Mistress" ("Had we but World enough, and Time..."), "A Dialogue Between the Soul and Body," "The Garden," "The Drop of Dew," "The Nymph Complaining of the Death of Her Faun," "The Picture of Little T.C. in a Prospect of Flowers," and the sequence of Mower poems. Allison 9A; Grolier Wither to Prior 536; Hayward 126; Pforzheimer 671; Wing M872.
