Presentation copy from H. Buxton Forman to "Louis" with a long, two-page inscription on the pages following the title-page. Forman writes: "Of male friends in England, William Joseph Ibbett is he with whom I am most intimate. . . . It is a "a settled vanity" with him (& with me) that his best songs & poems will live: hence the present collection. The inscription is dated 21 August 1900. Following his inscription, Forman has transcribed a poem beginning "Far too generous are you, Ibbett! / For your genius - could I crib it, / Be assured that I would do so . . .

The poem is initialed "H.B.J" at the end and dated 13 September 1899.…
