Transcriber's Note
Led by the belief that the spelling and punctuation of each
entry is based directly on the original title pages no
intentional 'corrections' have been made to the content. The
text in this e-book is as close to the original printed text
as pgdp proofing and postprocessing could get it. In some
entries larger spaces are used as spacers between
bibliographic fields instead of punctuation. These have been
retained to the best of our ability and are represented as
non-breaking spaces.

edition: "P. S. We could not resist the Opportunity of improving
this Collection with two or three Pieces on parallel Subjects, written
by Persons of great Distinction, our particular Friends, for which
the Publick ought to thank us, and with which it was in the Power of
none but our selves to have obliged them."

POPE, ALEXANDER.--The Dunciad. an Heroic Poem. In three Books, [woodcut
of vase of flowers] Dublin, Printed, London Reprinted for A. Dodd. [May
28] 1728. _8vo, brown morocco, blind-tooled, gilt top, uncut edges._
An uncut copy of the first issue of the first edition, measuring 8-1/4
by 5 inches. "B" of Thoms's list, similar to the copy in the British
Museum.
The distinguishing marks of this first issue are the misprint, "Book and
the man I sing" instead of "Books," page 1, line 1, and the blank page
on the verso of H2 instead of an advertisement.
Three varieties of the Owl frontispiece are found in the different
editions; the first as in this issue, the second in that edition of 1728
which is entirely reset (page 302), and the third in the variorum
edition, 1729. Perhaps the simplest method of identification is by means
of the legend on the scroll held by the Owl. In variety No. 1, the
second line, "Dunci-" has a hyphen at the end; in No. 2 it has not; in
No. 3 the second line is the complete word "Dunciad." The Owl in No. 1
is better drawn than in No. 2; the "s" in "Shakesp." is a long "s" in
No. 1, which is not the case in No. 2; all the lettering in No. 1 is
smaller than in No. 2. The Owl in No. 3 is more like No. 1 than No. 2
is; "P. & K. Arthur," on the book under the Owl's claws in 1 and 2 is
changed to "Gildon & Woolston" in No. 3; "New-castle" on the back of
the book next the floor in 1 and 2 is changed to "Blackmore" in No. 3.
The lettering in No. 3 corresponds more nearly in size to No. 1 than
does that in No. 2.
The present copy was once owned by Jonathan Richardson, the painter.

Second issue of the first edition. "C" of Thoms's list.
The distinguishing mark of this issue is on page 1, line 1 (ending with
"who"), where "Book and the man I sing" is corrected to "Books." The
text was probably printed from the same forms of type as the first
issue, with corrections of some, but not all, typographical
irregularities; e.g., on page vii of the Preface the second "i" of the
Roman numeral extends above the line in both issues; on page 1, line 1,
of the second issue the last letter in "who" has been raised to the
line, whereas in the first it is below. On page 5 the same space exists
in both issues between "F" and "i" of "First" in the running head-line;
on page 23, line 159, the misprint "spirits" occurs in both issues. In
the note on page 5 "Interlude" of the first issue is changed to
"Enterlude" in the second.
In the first issue the verso of H2 is blank; in the second it contains
an announcement: "Speedily will be Published The Progress of Dulness,
an Historical Poem. By an Eminent Hand. Price 1s. 6d."
Signature A of the first issue is not lettered; the first page of the
Preface in the second is lettered A3.
Page vii of the Preface in the first issue is lettered "b"; in the
second issue it is unlettered, making six leaves in A, the present issue
being a 12mo in sixes, the first an 8vo in fours, with corresponding
alterations in signature marks.

_12mo, maroon morocco, blind-tooled, gilt top, uncut edges._
"D" of Thoms's list. Presumably the third issue of the first edition,
although the title-page says "second edition." The Address from the
Publisher to the Reader appears to have been printed from the same forms
as the two preceding issues ("B" and "C" of Thoms's list), because of
many similarities of dropped letters and defective types. The text was
probably printed from the same type reimposed to admit of the
interpolation of notes, e.g., on page 5, "Lord Mayor of London" is added
to the note, "Sir Geo. Tho--"; on page 6, line 94, "And furious D--n" is
changed to "D--s"; on page 7 two notes are added, "Old Printers." and
"§ Philemon Holland." On page 22 the addition of a note of three lines
necessitated the transference of two lines of text to the top of page
23; "Spirts," line 159, page 23, is here correctly printed, whereas in
the previous issue it is "Spirits." The advertisement of "The Progress
of Dulness" on the verso of F2 does not occur here.

_12mo, maroon morocco, blind-tooled, gilt top, uncut edges._
Undescribed by Thoms.
Another edition of 1728, presumably the second, rather than the
preceding. The type is entirely reset in the body of the work, although
the same founts are used. On the title-page it is larger and of a
heavier face than in the preceding edition, and the ornament is
different. The "U" in "Dunciad" is not symmetrical, as in the other
edition, but has a straight right and a curved left side. The Owl
frontispiece has been re-engraved (variety No. 2).
The first page of the Preface, A2 (A3 in the other edition), has a
large, heavy capital "I" for "It," whereas the other begins with an "I"
in a woodcut border.
"Who," the last word of the first line of the other edition, is the
first word of the second line here,--the distinguishing mark of this
edition. The type of the final page of advertisement is of much lighter
face than in the other edition.
It does not contain the additional notes on pages 5, 7, and 22, and the
spelling of "Interludes" in the note on page 5 is preserved; therefore
it was probably set up from a copy of "B" rather than "C," although the
misprint "spirits," page 23, line 159, is corrected.

POPE, ALEXANDER.--The Dunciad, variorvm. With the Prolegomena of
Scriblerus [vignette of Ass] London. Printed for A. Dod. 1729. _4to,
red levant morocco, gilt back and sides, gilt top, uncut edges, by
Rivière._
First complete, and author's first avowed edition. "F" of Thoms's list.
Four varieties of the Ass frontispiece are found in different editions.
No. 1 as in the present edition, No. 2 in the first variorum 8vo
edition, No. 3 in the reprint of the variorum 4to (page x), and No. 4 in
the Collected Works, folio, 1735.
Although the difference between Nos. 1 and 2 is perfectly evident when
the two plates are compared side by side, the details of No. 1 are so
faithfully re-engraved in No. 2 that a definite mark of differentiation
is difficult to give. In No. 1 the spacing of the letters in "vicum" in
the inscription at the left of the vignette is uneven; there is too much
space between "v" and its adjacent letters. This is not so in No. 2. In
No. 2, on the other hand, the "o" in "deferor" is raised above the line,
as it is not in No. 1. Perhaps the surest means is measurement; No. 1 is
4 inches in height; No. 2, 3-7/8 inches.
No. 3 is much smaller and has very evidently been re-engraved. The
spelling "Heywood" is found here instead of "Haywood," as in Nos. 1 and
2. In No. 4 the caption of the paper in the right foreground is "The
Free Briton" instead of "Bakers journal," as in Nos. 1, 2, and 3.

It is difficult to determine the priority of the various editions of the
four Epistles composing this Essay. Whereas there were once supposed to
be only four editions, it is now generally conceded that there are ten
or eleven, two of the First Epistle with "Part I." on the title-page,
two of the First with "Epistle I." on the title-page, three of the
Second, two of the Third, and one of the Fourth.
No recorded investigations are sufficiently advanced to be of service,
and in the matter of the numbering of the lines or neglect to number,
one theory is as plausible as another. It is granted, however, that the
editions of the First Epistle with "Part I." on the title-page were
earlier printed than those bearing "Epistle I."
The wording of the third title-page is the same as the second, with the
substitution of "Epistle III." for "Epistle II.," but they are
differently set up. In the imprint of Epistle II, "J. Wilford" is in
lower case italics, in Epistle III in small capitals; "Chapter-House" in
Epistle III is in lower case italics, and not in Epistle II.
In the Address to the Reader preceding Epistle II, Pope says, "The
Author has been induced to publish these Epistles separately for two
Reasons; The one, that he might not impose upon the Publick too much
at once of what he thinks incorrect; The other, that by this Method, he
might profit of its Judgement on the Parts, in order to make the Whole
less unworthy of it."

First edition of Epistle IV. Epistle I, although it contains only five
lines more than in the first edition, i.e., 286, is considerably
altered: e.g., between lines 22 and 23, six lines are inserted in the
present edition; lines 29-34 are here omitted, and 35-42 of the first
are transposed after 60; 95-100 and 111-114 in the first edition are
omitted in the second; 115-116 in the second are new; 149 in the first
is omitted in the second, and 142 in the second is new. These are a few
of the alterations.
In Epistle II the lines are not numbered, except line 175, although the
number is the same as in the first edition.
Epistle III is printed from the same forms of type as the first edition.

First editions. The Epistle to Lord Cobham, Of the Knowledge and
Character of Men, Of the Characters of Women, and Of the Use of Riches
are the first three of the four Moral Essays written in the form of
Epistles.
In this edition of the Characters of Women, Philomedé (Henrietta,
Duchess of Marlborough in her own right), Atossa (her mother the Duchess
Sarah), and Chloe (Lady Suffolk) do not appear. The Epistle to Dr.
Arbuthnot is the Prologue to the Satires.
The First Satire of the Second Book of Horace is presumably the first of
four issues of the first of two editions printed in 1733, with no
defective type on the title-page, and the catch-word on page 13
misprinted "In" for "Whether." It has been asserted that there were five
editions of this poem in 1733, but an examination of various copies
shows that defective type in the text occurs in the same places in four
out of five instances. This would indicate that the type was actually
reset only once, although variations of signature marks and marginal
signs show that slight typographical changes were made as the sheets
passed through the press. These, however, are not important enough to
constitute new editions. The real test is in the composition of the text
itself. The sheets of the four issues are the same, but on one
title-page the words "Price One Shilling" are added after the date.
It has been asserted that there are three editions of the Second Epistle
of the Second Book of Horace; but, on the same grounds as in the
previous poem, it seems more probable that there were three issues of
one edition, parts of which were possibly reset, as indicated by
occasional corrections of defective type. The present issue is
presumably the first, with the misprint "16" for "15" at the foot of
page 12, an error corrected in the other two issues.
