From the Bart Auerbach Collection. 8 pages, 8vo, two bifolium each tipped to the same sheet of heavy paper, signed by Conder at bottom of fourth page. With a three-line note by Conder at the end of the second poem about the resemblance of it to an Olney Hymn of William Cooper's. (BA) Conder was a correspondent of Robert Southey and was well-connected to Romantic authors of his day as editor of the British literary magazine 'The Eclectic Review' and the Nonconformist and abolitionist newspaper 'The Patriot'. These poems were written in his teenage years when he worked as an assistant in his family's bookshop in the City of London; he took over the business in 1811 and then left it around 1819 when offered the editorship of 'The Eclectic Review'.
