Item description from seller

8vo, [viii], 80pp., half-title, some very light occasional spotting mainly to fore-edges, marbled endpapers, all edges blocked in gilt bound in contemporary fine quality full tree calf, inner gilt dentelles, gilt decoration to outer borders and edges, gilt decorated spine in compartments with contrasting morocco title label. A near fine copy in a most handsome binding. The Everlasting Mercy is a poem by John Masefield, the UK's second longest serving poet laureate after Alfred, Lord Tennyson. It was published in 1911 and is styled as the confession of a man who has turned from sin to Christianity. As a work that first made Masefield famous, it shocked early 20th-century British sensibilities with its direct, honest, and therefore often harsh language, as the life of protagonist violent, drunken womanizer Saul Kane is laid out in detail.
