REMARKS. 
 
 WE have in this Catalogue, the pleasure of presenting the 
 first portion of the library of Mr. E. M. Boyle, of Philadelphia, 
 who is one of the few of old time collectors left. He has been 
 known to collectors and booksellers, both in this country and 
 abread, for nearly fifty years, and having a deep interest in Eng- 
 lish Literature in all its branches has accumulated a very large 
 library. Asa natural consequence he has secured many items of 
 the greatest literary as well as bibliographical importance. Like 
 all book-lovers, his hobby ran in some channels, more than others, 
 consequently he has made a collection of works by, or relating to 
 Lord Byron, probably for its extent, not equalled by any other 
 private collection. His Library includes many great rarities 
 and presentation copies; but of this we will speak later, as also 
 of his collection of Incunabula, Early Bibles, Illuminated Manu- 
 scripts, Curiosa and General Literature, History, Biography, &c., 
 catalogues of which will appear later. 
 
 The present Catalogue embraces that portion of the library 
 which relates to the early English Drama and Poetry, Early 
 English Authors, Annalists and Historians, as well as rare trans- 
 lations of the Greek and Latin Classics. The first part of the 
 Sale embraces the Shakespeariana, in which will be found a very 
 good copy of the Second Folio of 1632, and the First American 
 Edition of Shakespeare; a Set of the 4to Facsimiles; many of 
 the most important editions of Shakespeare, edited by the various 
 commentators; and works relating to the life and history of 
 the Poet; Controversial Essays; the Shakespeare-Bacon Contro- 
 versy, &c. 
 
 In the General Literature will be found Codrington’s Aesop’s 
 Fables of 1666; Barclay’s Argenis, 1636; First and Second | 
 Editions of Burton’s Anatomy of Melancholy; First Edition of 
 Chapman’s Homer, 1616; Lidgate’s Chaucer of 1561; Speight’s 
 Chaucer of 1602, and Urry’s Chaucer of 1721; Cooper’s Chroni- 
 
cle, 1565 (which Shakespeare consulted); First Folio Davenant 
 of 1673; Drayton’s Poly-Olbion, 1613-22; First Edition of Fair- 
 fax’s Tasso, 1600; First Edition of Ben Jonson, 1616; First

 after by the collector. 
 
 Included in the Sale is a Magnificent Copy of the First 
 - Folio Audubon’s Birds of America, 1831-39, and Audubon and 
 Bachman’s Quadrupeds, 1845-48. This is one of the finest sets

 dred and fifty superb plates, drawn from nature and beauti- 
 fully colored by hand. 
 
 3 vols. Elephant folio, half red morocco, top edges gilt, 
 New York, 1845-1848, and Text, 3 vols. Imperial 8vo, 
 half red morocco, gilt, top edges gilt, New York, 1849. 
 
 The Birds were originally published in 87 parts, supposed to 
 be of five plates each, during 1827-38 ; subsequently bound 
 in four volumes, each furnished with a title leaf as in the copy, 
 but with no tert. The plates were furnished without text to 
 avoid the necessity of furnishing copies gratis to the public 
 libraries of England, agreeable to the English Laws of copyright. 
 Owing to the destruction by fire of the stock and copper plates, 
 and ruinous effects of the war in the Southern States where 
 most copies were sold, the work has become extremely rare. 
 Tt is by far the most elaborate ornithological work ever pub- 
 lished. This copy is fine and elean. All the plates are mounted 
 on linen. Plates Nos. 235,297 and 435 have been trimmed 
 and inlaid. It is doubtful, however, whether a finer copy could 
 be had. 
 
 The Quadrupeds is also a magnificent, fine, crisp and clean 
 copy. Plates Nos. 77 and 78 were torn and have been repaired. 
 The two works together making the most sumptuous publi- 
 cation ever gotten up on the Birds and Quadrupeds of any 
 country. . 
 
 Both works will be sold as whole, or one lot. They are 
 encased in a handsome ebonized cabinet, with siding apart- 
 ments for the larger volumes, and shelf for the descriptive 
 volumes.

 Wonders, Rarityes, Pleasures, and Commodities of the same, 
 Digested in a Poem by Michael Drayton, with a Table 
 added, for direction to those occurrences of Story and An- 
 tiquitie, whereunto the course of the volume easily leades 
 not. London, printed by H. L. for Matthew Lownes, 
 J. Browne, J. Helme, and J. Busbie, 1613.—The Second 
 Part, or A Continuance of Poly-Olbion from the Eighteenth 
 Song, containing all the Tracts, Rivers, Mountaines, and 
 Forrests, intermixt with the most Remarkable Stories, An- 
 tiquities, Wonders, Rarities, Pleasures, and Commodities of 
 the East and Northerne Parts of this Isle, lying betwixt the 
 two Famous Rivers of Thames and Tweed. London, 
 printed by Augustine Mathews for John Marriott, John 
 Grismand, and Thomas Dewe, 1622. With the beautiful 
 frontispiece, the fine portrait of Prince Henry and all the curt- 
 ous maps engraved by William Hole. 
 
 Folio, full red morocco, gilt, gilt edges, by Bedford. 
 First Editions of both parts. “NUERY RARE. 
 
 The author of this grand old work was contemporary with 
 Shakespeare, being one year his senior. Coleridge says of him— 
 “ Drayton is a sweet poet, and Selden’s notes to the earlier part 
 of the Poly-Olbion are well worth perusal, * * * yet there 
 are instances of sublimity in Drayton.’ Ellis says—“ His 
 Poly-Olbion is certainly a wonderful work, exhibiting at once 
 the learning of an Historian, an Antiquary, a Naturalist, and 
 a Geographer, and embellished with the imagination of a 
 poet.” Other writers set a high value on the work. 
 
 This copy lacks the both titles. The frontispiece, leaf of 
 explanation, portrait of Prince Henry and the dedication (1 
 leaf) are all delicately repatred on the margins. The second

 were bound together and issued, the second was frequently

 12mo, unbound Dublin, Printed, London Reprinted for A. Dodd. 1728 
 
 Unknown to Thoms, but may come between ‘c” anda” 
 of his list. This issue has two of the typographical errors 
 noted in the early editions of this work, viz.: Page 5, note 
 “« Interludes” for ‘‘ Enterludes”; page 6, line 94,‘ D n” 
 for ““D s”, with an advertisement of “The Progress of 
 Dullness” on verso of page 51, followed by a“ Key to the 
 Dunciad” of 4 pages. There were three other issues of the 
 work dated 1728, one bearing second edition, the other two 
 third editicn on the titles. After careful research this appears 
 to have peculiarities not noted in any other issues of the farst 
 Edition noticed by Thoms.
