The Catalogue of Books, now offered to the public, comprises the entire library of the late Mil. WM. E. BURTON, the eminent Comedian, who devoted many years to its collection, and it is believed to be by far the largest Library of Dramatic Literature ever offered at public auction in this or any other country. It contains a most surprising mass of rare old English Plays; Works on the Drama, History of the Stage, Theatres, Theatrical Characters and Biography, Pageants, Royal Progresses, and Pro cessions, Mimes, Pantomimes, Masquerades, Mummeries, Myste ries, and Morris Dancers, Fantoccini, Olympian Games, Feats of the Circus, Carnivals, Cavalcades, and every other description of Exhibition which were all objects of Mr. B. s research; indeed, such was Mr. Burton s enthusiasm that nothing was too trivial that tended in any way to illustrate the profession which he was so eminently qualified to fill. OLD ENGLISH POETRY, will be found not only voluminous, but abounding in rare and choice copies, including many English translations of the classics of very early dates; while the Dramatic collection is replete with the first editions of most of the Plays of importance. Shakspeariana is especially rich, not only in rare books, but in some presque unique copies of books printed for presentation only. Amidst such a variety of really choice and rare books it would be almost invidious to make a special reference to any particular work or works; but the fact of there being the First Four Folio Editions of Shakspcare s Works is too important to overlook. Also, all the collected editions from that of Rowe to Halliwell s folio. For a further account of this department, the reader is referred to page 335. TOPOGRAPHICAL WORKS, however rare or expensive, were not forgotten, nor Antiquities of Greece and Rome. Among the former is a fine copy of the first edition of Dugdale s Warwick shire, containing the earliest engraving of the Monument of Shaks- 863942 iv NOTICE. peare, by the elaborate, accurate, and most industrious Hollar, which differs materially from all the more recent representations of it, either from the burin of the engraver, or the numerous plaster casts. Dugdale s St. Paul s, Weever s Funeral Monuments, Wren s Parentalia, and Nichols Royal Progresses will also be found. ME. BURTON S speciality as an author of Comic Pieces naturally led him to the collection of Books of Wit and Humor ; of this fact there will be sufficient evidence on referring to the departments of Facetiae and Jest Books, among which will be found many works of rarity books of this class being cheaply got up, are especially liable to mutilation. Polonius s description of the players whom Rosencrantz and Gil- derstern "coted on the way" from the Academy at Wittenburg to the Court of Elsinore, as " being the best actors in the world, either for Tragedy, Comedy, History, Pastoral, Pastoral-comical, Historical-pastoral, Tragical-historical, Tragical-comical, Histori cal-pastoral, Scene indivisible, or Poem unlimited," conveys some idea of the thorough completeness of this dramatic collection. " Seneca was not too heavy, nor Plautus too light." The Curiosities and Antiquities comprise some desirable rari ties, including Statues, Busts, Models, Casts of Shakspeare s Monu ment and Bust at Stratford, including Clara Fisher s Museum, and the celebrated Mulberry Tree Tea Caddy, one of the choicest Sou venirs of the Tree in existence, and perfectly unique. Also, many Bronze Medals, a Watch formerly belonging to Washington, and Talma s Repeater, presented by Napoleon. The Library Furniture comprises a series of Book Cases of Gothic Pattern, made for a room thirty feet square. An Oak Book Case and four Mahogany Book Cases, Library Table, Chairs, two Fire-proofs, &c. Also, a magnificent Antique Buffet, or Side board, Gas Fixtures, Billiard Table, &c. There are also a few of the best of the Oil Paintings which were not sold with the Gallery. Of the Catalogue, let it suffice to observe that the books are all faithfully represented, and distant buyers may rely upon the con dition of the books being truly expressed. Its arrangement has been attended with much labor, but the convenience to the buyer will be self-evident. J. SABIN & CO. CONTENTS. LOTS. PAUK.

This history was ye last performance (it seems) of ye justly celebrated Abbot Vertot. * * * Besides ye importance of ye subject (viz., ye rise, progress and manners of ye famous Knights of Malta), our author easily appears to have recomended this performance, by ye beauty of ye stile, by ye elegance and perspicuity of the narration, and by ye various and artful episodes interwoven thro out, which to me seem to comprehend a general idea of ye affairs of Europe, and are a kind of a history in miniature of ye establishment of Ma- hometisin, of the Crusades, of several of the Popes, of ye Emperors of ye East, of the Turkish Sultans, of the K gs of Jerusalem, Tripoli and Cyprus, together with other remarkable personages and events. Our author says, "The first rise of ye Order of ye Knights, &c., was owing to "Devotion" I wd. rather say to " Superttilion." For to what else can be justly ascribed ye frequent pilgrimages to the lloly Laud, &c. ?" From a MS. note in the first volume. Dated 1737. COSTUME. Vide HISTORY OF THE STAGE. j V DIALECTS. DIALECTS.

It has done for the text of the united Dramatists, perhaps, nearly all that it was possible to do." Quarterly Review. " Two men once united by friendship and forever by fame, the Dioscuri of our Zodiac, rose upon the horizon as the star of Shakespeare, though still in its fullest brightness, was declining in the sky. In Comedy they founded a new school, at least in England, the vestiges of which are still to be traced in our theatre. Their language bril liant with wit, their measure, though they do not make great use of prose, very lax and rapid, running frequently to lines of thirteen and fourteen syllables. Few of their comedies are without a mix ture of grave sentiments or elevated characters ; and though there is much to condemn in their indecency and even licentiousness of principle, they never descend to the coarse buffoonery not unfre- quent in their age. Never were dramatic poets more thoroughly gentlemen according to the standard of their times." Hallam. -4T" 835 BEAUMONT and Fletcher, Woman Hater, acted with great applause, 4to. half calf.

Hazlitt. " In the romantic Drama, Beaumont and Fletcher are almost supreme. Their plays are, in general, most truly delightful. I could read the Beggar s Bush from morning to night. How sylvan and sunshiny it is ! The Little French Lawyer is excellent. Lawrit is conceived and executed from first to last in comic humor. Monsieur Thomas is also capital. I have no doubt whatever that the first act and the first scene of the second act of The Two Noble Kinsmen, are Shakes peare s.

The last of the commendatory poems is by Isaac Walton.

His first dramatic performance was Mi-lite, a comedy, which met with such distinguished success, that he was encouraged to devote his rare powers to the drama. The tragedies of Medea, The Cid, The Horatii, and Cinna, followed, and established for their author a pre-eminent station among French dramatists. Besides the fore going, he wrote many other tragedies, and translated Thomas ,\ Kempis, On the Imitation of Jesus Christ.

A transparency, perspicuity, sweetness, har mony, ductility, blended strength and ease, in structure of his Metre, which delight and never satiate." Dr. Draper. " The tragedies of Massinger have a calm and dignified seriousness, a lofty pride, that impresses the imagination very strongly. His genius was more eloquent and descriptive than impassioned or inventive : yet his pictures of suffering virtue, its struggles and its trials, are calculated to touch the heart, as well as gratify the taste. His ver sification is sweetly smooth and mellifluous." Chambers. 1323 MAY (Thomas). The Tragedie of Cleopatra, Queen of Egypt, calf, 12mo.

The Lives of the most eminent English Poets, with Critical Observations on their works, by Samuel Johnson, in 4 vols. 8vo. (portrait after Reynolds). First edition, in the original old coif binding. Lond. 1781 In the whole range of English literature it would, perhaps, be impossible to select a more intrinsically valuable and gratifying literary gem than the present. It is the copy of Dr. Johnson s Lives of the Poets, presented to his friend, Mrs. Thrale, and enriched throughout with copious notes and annotations by her, which are entirely unpub lished. The late editions of " Boswell s Life" have shown the eagerness with which every scrap relating to Dr. Johnson has been collected and cherished, though often of trivial value ; while these volumes present an untouched mine of entirely new material, from one, of whose house he was so long an inmate, and who soothed with feminine attention and the luxuries of wealth the declining years of the "Colossus of Literature." It may be doubted whether an equally valuable addition to our knowledge of Dr. Johnson is in existence. On the lly-leaf of vol. 1 is the signature "//. L. Thrale, 126 DRAMATIC BIOGRAPHY. 1781," and the notes with which the margins abound appear to have been written on various perusals between that time and 1817, (which is the last date noticed), four years previous to Mrs. Piozzi s death, in 1821, in her 82d year. In a note to Boswell, Mr. Croker says of Mrs. Piozzi s hand, " Her writing is an almost perfect speci men of calligraphy, and this power remained unimpaired to the last years of her long life ;" a fact to which these volumes testify indeed some of the later notes are almost microscopic, though per fectly clear and legible. The notes, which are many hundreds in number, and of various extent, from a few words to a long para graph, may be roughly classed as unpublished anecdotes of Dr. Johnson, anecdotes of English literary men and their works, derived from a constant intercourse with the highest sources of information, and original critical remarks, &c., by Mrs. Piozzi herself, frequently displaying great vivacity and talent. A specimen or two, chiefly of the first class, is given merely to show their character and import ance : "When I expressed my grief and anger at seeing Young s character so mangled, (by Herbert Crofts, who supplied the Life in Johnson s Col lection), Why, pry thee, my dear, (says Dr. Johnson), why didst not do it thyself? I did not possess any materials for such a work, was my reply. Nor I, (answered Johnson), and I was glad of good help. So now, let s hear no more on t. " Life of Youny, vol. iv., p. 359. " When Johnson had finished his preface to Shakspear, Mr. Thrale said, Oh, sir, you have driven Pope quite into shade. I fear not, sir, was our doctor s reply, the little fellow has done wonders. " Pope, vol. iv., p. 73. " Dr. Johnson requested Lord Westcote, in my hearing, to write this life (Lord Lyttleton) for him, (though I am sure he neither loved nor esteemed the man.) Lord Westcote declined the work, with many complimentary expressions ; said his dear brother was in the best possible hands, &c. ; and after it was written flew in a rage, and ran to Mrs. Montagu, complaining of Dr. Johnson, who sat still and laughed at my Lord Parenthesis, as he called Billy Lyttleton." Lyttleton, vol. iv., p. 489. " The beauty who is totally free from disproportion of parts and fea tures, cannot be ridiculed by an overcharged resemblance, &c., Johnson," finely said, and accurately illustrated; and it was John son s conversation opinion, too. He liked Mr. Thrale, he said, because he had no trick about his manner, no emphasis in his talk ; he could no more be taken off (as the phrase is) than Beauclerc. And what, sir, (said I,) do you think, then, of your favorite, Bur- ney ? Oh, (said he,) Burney could not be taken off, certainly, because he is all trick. " Dryden, vol. ii., p. 121. " Dr. Johnson was very angry that he was not called upon by Garrick to write the Ode, (in the Shakespeare Jubilee,) which for that rea son he always ridiculed." Dryden, vol. ii., p. 110. "I have heard Dr. Johnson say, what tis plain he would not write, how Parnell could not get through a sermon, without turning his head, even in the pulpit, to drink a dram." H. L. P., 1802. Parnell, vol. ii. p. 306. " Richardson quotes as Otway s lines, verses now well known to be Shakespeare s ; but to Garrick, that mine of mercury striated with gold, we owe the revivification of Shakespeare, though none of us had influence enough with Dr. Johnson to make him confess it in his Preface or Notes. Mr. Thrale would not try Garrick had re- DRAMATIC BIOGRAPHY. 127 fused him a favor. He wonld not patronize Poll Hart, who after ward married Reddish." Otiray, vol. i., p. 340. For a very curious anecdote of Rochester, see vol. i., p. 301 ; and of Thomson, vol. iv., p. 271 ; which would take too much space to extract. It ia hoped that the above specimens, out of some hundred notes, will be sufficient to give an idea of the value of this Unique Contribution to the Literary History of England, and Memorial of one of her Greatest Writers. 1819 JOHNSON (Samuel), The Life of, by James Boswell, edited by J.

It is assuredly a great, a very great book. Homer is not more decidedly the first of Heroic poets Shakspeare is not more decidedly the first of dramatists Demosthenes is not more decidedly the first of ora tors, than Boswell is the first of biographers. He has distanced all his competitors so decidedly, that it is not worth while to place them ; Eclipse is first, and all the rest, nowhere. We are not sure that there is in the whole history of the human intellect so singular a phenomenon as this book. Many of the greatest men that have ever lived have written biography Boswell has beaten them all."

Mr. Johnes has prefixed a Life of the Author, an Essay on his Works, a Criti cism on his History, and a Dissertation on his Poetry. Sir Walter Scott, in his "Tales of My Landlord," thus speaks of the above "Did you ever read Froissart ?" "No," said Morton. "I have half a mind," said Claverhouse, " to contrive you should have six months imprisonment in order to procure you that pleasure. His chapters inspire me with more enthusiasm than even poetry itself. And the noble Canon ; with what true chivalrous feeling he confines his beautiful expressions of sorrow to the death of the gallant and high-bred Knight, of whom it was a pity to see the fall, such was his loyalty to his King, pure faith to his religion, hardi hood towards his enemy, and fidelity to his lady-love." 1936 Chronicles of, 74 illuminated plates to illus trate Froissart, printed in gold and colours, being fac similes from the drawings in the illuminated copy at the British Museum, and Bibliotheque Nationale de Paris, in impl. 8vo. half red morocco, gilt edges. 1846 The illuminations are admirably execiited, and highly characteristic representations of authentic costume, &c. 1937 GRANGER (Rev.

Monstrelet s Chronicles are real history, wherein are found all the characteristics of historical writing. He traces events to their source, developes the causes, and follows them with the minutest details ; and what renders these Chronicles infinitely precious is, his never- failing attention to report all Edicts, Letters, Treaties, etc. as proofs of the truth of the facts he relates. 1947*NAVAL Chronicle, complete from its commencement in 1799 to 1816 inclusive, illustrated with many fine portraits and engravings of Sea Fights, &c., 36 large vols. royal 8vo. halflound. 1799-1816 This very interesting work gives the fullest and most graphic accounts of the brilliant exploits of the British Navy during 16 years, with Me moirs of the Commanders, Officers, &c., including many no where else published ; also Naval Tales, Anecdotes, Obituaries, &c.

It is illustrated with very numerous MS. notes, written with all the spirit of a good hater and excessively vituperative ; the following note is written on the title page : "This man was hired to Deprave Art." This is the opinion of William Blake, my proofs are given in the [follow ing] notes. The reader is referred to the work, it is full and run ning over with marginal notes, all written in the spirit already indicated. " Blake is a real name I assure you, and a most extraordinary man he is, if he be still living. He is tho Blake whose wild designs accom pany a splendid edition of Blair s Grave. He paints in water colours marvellous strange pictures visions of his brain, which he asserts that he has seen. They have great merit. I have heard of his Poems, but have never seen them. There is one to a tiger, which I have heard recited, beginning : Tiger ! Tiger ! burning bright, Through the deserts of the night, &c. which is glorious. But, alas, I have not the book, and the man is flown, whither I know not to Hades, or a madhouse but I must look on him as one of the most extraordinary persons of the age." C. Lamb. "The most original, and in truth the only new and original version of tho Scripture idea of Angels which I have met with, is that of Wil liam Blake, a poet painter, somewhat mad as we are told, if indeed his madness was not rather the telescope of truth, a sort of poetical clairvoyance, bringing the unearthly nearer to him than to others."

While the first edition and sheets of Paradise Lost were slowly struggling through the mists of bigotry and party prejudice into public reputa tion, the poems of Cleveland were poured forth in innumerable im pressions. The reverse is now the singular contrast ; and Cleveland has had the fate of those poets, described in Johnson s Life of Cowley, who, paying their court to temporary prejudices, have been at one time too much praised, and at another too much neglected.

Landino is one of tlie most prized of the old commentators. " Landino, in his commentary on Dante, has preserved the remembrance of many historical facts, and related many circumstances indis pensably necessary to the explanation of the divine coinedia. His industry in the execution of a task so grateful to his countrymen, was rewarded by the donation of a villa or residence on the Hill of Casentino, in the vicinity of Florence, which he enjoyed under the sanction of a public decree."

" The secular aims, the greedy avarice, the nepotism, the shameful vices of the Popes whom Dante accuses and he assailed none but wicked Popes were all the more hateful to him, because they polluted the sanctity of the Church, while they inflamed the discords of his country. Such were the views which have caused Dante to be ranked as a partisan of the Ghibellines, although he repudiated and it may be said with high reason the charge of party declar ing that * rectitude [see this passage in the treatise " De Vulyari Eloquio" ], meaning inexorable justice was his sole guide.

The first two books of his great epic are especially remarkable for their grandeur and sublimity; he invested his creations with the classic spoils of the mythology and superstitions of the ancient pagans, commingling with them the truths of the Christian religion." Chambers. " He possesses sublimity enough to command our fear, and gentleness enough to awaken our affection. He unites the fancy of Spenser to the majesty of ^Eschylus, and the delicate finish and grace of Ca- nova to the bold and sweeping outlines of Michael Angelo. The humblest thought, subjected to the alchemy of Milton s genius, be came transmuted into something precious and costly.

Its popu larity during the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries is shown by the numerous Manuscripts and editions, and to this popularity we owe the Mirror for Magistrates, written on the same plan, and intended as a continuation of it ; the Legends and Barons Wars of Drayton, the Civil Wars of Daniel, the Legend of Wolsey, by Storer, and other Poems on the same model ; but it is the Dramatic muse of the coun try that is chiefly indebted to it ; since to it we trace the origin of the Historic Drama, which, rising in the Ferrex and Porrex of Sack- ville and Norton, acquired such strength in the hands of Marloe, and ultimately blazed forth with such splendor in the pages of Shake speare, extremely rare. * # * Sold in the Roxburghe sale for III. 11s., and in the Towneley for 10/. 5*. &2_ 4792 BOSWELL (J(ts.)

Gasco gne s Works should always form part of a Shakspeare library. In the Taming of a Shrew, Shakspeare has borrowed considerably from Gascoigne s comedy of the Supposes. " Shakspeare," says Mr. Chalmers, " obviously borrowed the names of two of his char acters from the Supposes of Gascoigne, which was first acted in 1564, and published among his Workes in 1575 and 1587, adopting, moreover, from Gascoigne s comedy sentiments and language." Such was the opinion also of Mr. Gifford, Warton, Dr. Farmer, &c. The Supposes was the first comedy written in English prose. 4895 GESTA Eomanorum, (Botl)ic Ccttcr, very rare, calf, an tique, 4to.
