xiphophilos 21st Nov 2020		Love the illustration!



23skidoo 28th May 2020		By far the oldest book in my collection (next oldest is from 1797). Found in a supermarket charity book bin in Calgary, of all places. Although the cover is detached, the pages are in remarkably good shape. I was not going to dare attempting a scan of this, however, so please forgive the cell phone photos! Later editions of this poem shorten the title to Night-Thoughts.
