Item description from seller

First edition, a very good copy in paper covered boards with a leather label on the upper cover, 8vo, iv, 46pp, no marking or inscriptions. This is the best-known poem by Matthew Green (1696-1737), one which was greatly admired by Pope and Gray among others. As noted by Foxon, a number of copies lack the final blank. An Edinburgh piracy was published in the same year, but has a different collation. The preface is attributed to Richard Glover. Foxon G283.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal

Statutory right to withdraw

You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.

The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.

Effects of withdrawal

If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).

We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.

We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.

We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
