Description
1 volume (title leaf + 355, [4] manuscript pages); 19 cm
Summary
Manuscript notebook of poetry, most apparently copied from contemporary printed sources. Includes poems by Byron, Shelley, Hemans, L.E.L., and over twenty other poets, most well-known and of the period. One piece, a translation from the Greek of Anacreon, is by someone possibly known personally by the compiler: John Baines of Thornhill Grammar School, near Wakefield. Five personalized wax seals appear in the volume, four with Shuttleworth's initials, and one with his initials and family crest, on which he comments. At the end of the volume are: a "Concluding Address" signed from Wakefield, Outwood; a brief statement upon the book's completion in 1830; and a four-page table of contents. On the front free endpaper and following two binder's leaves, another contemporary hand has added three poems. The manuscript title page verso bears an inscription: "W[illia]m Stead Pharmaceutical Chemist / Wakefield / Given to him by Samuel Field / Shuttleworth's only Sister / Mary Shuttleworth / who left him trustee for her / property in Westlake Wakefield." Bound in half red morocco over marbled boards, gilt spine rules and titling ("SELECT / M.S. / POETRY").
