First issue, the dedication copy: "To George Meredith, Esq. from Arthur Symons. 'If the first heir of my invention prove deformed, I shall be sorry it had so noble a god-father.'" Beveled edges of the binding denote the first issue. A very fine copy of the author's first book and an incomparable association item. For Symons' own copies of Browning's works, which he no doubt used in writing this volume.
