8vo; original pale green cloth blocked in gilt and green on upper board and spine; pp. xii + 67 + (iii) + 24. Cloth lightly soiled; slightest wear to extremities and head of spine; free endpapers rather foxed, pastedowns less so. Very good internally, good condition overall. "These cricket songs are dedicated to all Rugby boys in general, and to John and William Denton in particular." "Four years ago the author of this book issued a slender volume of cricket songs. Seven of these are now reprinted; the rest are new. The cricket ball, for the most part, is spoken of as a female. Once or twice the neuter gender is used. Varium et mutabile semper femina. It is hoped that the introduction of the names of prominent players (and one critic) will cause no vexation. Apologies are tendered to Mr. Moore and Mr. Shakespeare." - Author's preface.
